(...) Bruce Chamberlain postulated that the problem is due to one of the 3-axle trucks being *pushed* through the curve rather than pulled. I suspect that a rubber band between the two 3-axle trucks would help - I will try that sometime. --Bill. (17 years ago, 19-May-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)

(...) Thanks for the tip. I'll take a look. I'll have to do some testing with zziplib to see if it will work with the ldraw.org zip files. It doesn't support all zip compression schemes, but I suspect it will work. If I need XML parsing, I'll take a (...) (17 years ago, 19-May-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

(...) It's also not hinged to another truck; it only has to rotate around its center point. Being attached to the motor truck, the 3-axle trucks in the GG1 are being pulled a little bit off center as the wheels go into the curve, and I think that's (...)

(...) 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. I've gotten plenty of letters from people who say (...) (17 years ago, 17-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) 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)

(...) I don't know either, but based on what happened before and after the original release of LDD 1.0, I'm going to have to say that I'd find it to be unlikely. Prior to LDD 1.0 being released, someone from Lego contacted a number of LDraw tool (...) (17 years ago, 15-May-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

(...) I've not heard anything suggesting that addons are possible and I have my doubts that LEGO will be inclined to open its source (or if they even legally can since I believe it uses thrid-party libraries). Tim (17 years ago, 15-May-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

Dear Jim, Thank-you so much for this service! LSynth was the program I missed the most from Windows, but your version works flawlessly. Now I can get back to work! Thanks again! (17 years ago, 13-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
