(...) A brief update ... I got it built a while ago but only today tried putting it on the tracks. Bad news, I'm afraid. To make it work on LEGO curves, you need to remove the 4x6 tile with technic peg from the 3-axle trucks and add some tiles (...) (17 years ago, 18-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)

--snip-- (...) I think we're not talking about the same proccess. For me 'making an MPD file' is something you do at edit time. Editing a bunch of files, then calling LPub to join them is not as easy as editing them in MLCAD using the MPD menu to (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I'd say it's unlikely. It would be a fairly big undertaking, and since the files can already be viewed in LDD, I'm not sure how much real benefit there would be. Additionally, do you know of any open source cross-platform libraries for (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

(...) Well, because MLCad's process is so manual, it is very easy to create MPD files that are incomplete or not in the right order. One of MPD's rules is that the first FILE is the top level model.

(...) Thanks for the info, but I was actually aware of that. I was just trying to point out that the actions of LEGO as a company imply to me that they aren't interested in 3rd party support with LDD. --Travis (17 years ago, 16-May-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)
