  LDraw File Format Spec 1.0 DRAFT - Call for Public Comments
 
Like all previous LSCs, the 2006/7 LSC was charged with ratifying the LDraw File Format 1.0 specification. After much work checking, and ratifying as necessary, all linked specs and language extensions, and many months of dicussions about the actual (...) (17 years ago, 20-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad) ! 
 
  Looking for 9V switch as a .DAT file
 
Hi, does anyone has a 9V switch as a .DAT file, unfortunately can't find any on the LDRAW site, nor in official, nor in unofficial parts. Does anyone has it and may tell me the link or send it as file? Why do I am looking for that? I want to include (...) (17 years ago, 20-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Looking for 7740 as a .DAT file
 
Hi, maybe I am too stupid to use the search engine :-) but I can't find no 7740 as a .DAT file and I do know that (years ago) I did find them here (but lost them due to changing computers). Does anyone has it and may tell me the link or send it as (...) (17 years ago, 20-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: "Building with Bricksmith" screencast video
 
(...) It looks good, though, doesn't it? But you're right, if LDView 3.2 is a beta, this is, what, pre-alpha? I can change the caption. Hope you don't mind the "pre-release publicity." Jim (17 years ago, 19-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: "Building with Bricksmith" screencast video
 
I hardly think something that's not even close to feature complete (LDView Cocoa) qualifies as "Beta" ;-). --Travis (17 years ago, 19-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  "Building with Bricksmith" screencast video
 
I have recorded a silent video "screencast" of the creation of my most recent (URL) LDraw model> (yet another B-Wing variant). It is not a short video, but it shows the whole process from start to finish. Watching it has already given me a few ideas (...)

  Working with large models in LDD.
 
Hello all, I am currently working on a mosaic using nothing but 1x1 bricks. My problem is that the its over 13000 bricks. This seems to really cause problems with the speed of LDD. I am using a Macintosh PowerBook 1.67 with a gig of ram. It was (...) (17 years ago, 16-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)
 
  Re: Selling prints of LDraw renders
 
(...) Ok, thanks guys. As I've looked into logistics in other areas (would people even be interested in buying prints/cards/etc. of LDraw scenes? I have a feeling it would be difficult to turn any kind of profit with this.) I'm not sure how far I'll (...) (17 years ago, 14-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Selling prints of LDraw renders
 
(...) Given the way the software is made available, I would hope that anyone considering turning a profit from it might consider earmarking a portion of the proceeds to Ldraw.org - like Tim Courtney did from the sales of (URL) Virtual Lego>. Cheers (...) (17 years ago, 14-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)  
 
  Re: Selling prints of LDraw renders
 
(...) Dear Philip, To my knowledge there is nothing stopping you doing this. I wouldn't swear that it's not infringing copyright (IANAL) but I find it extremely unlikely anyone would make an issue out of it. Tim (speaking without his SteerCo hat on) (17 years ago, 14-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Or create a Bill of Materials using LPub! (17 years ago, 13-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) There is the Bricklink inventory format and the one used by BrickStore. Both seem to do what you want. (17 years ago, 13-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Selling prints of LDraw renders
 
I'm interested in selling prints of renders I've made of LDraw scenes. The way I interpret the terms of service, it appears that this is fine, but I wanted to check here to make sure I haven't missed anything. Is there any precedent for this and is (...) (17 years ago, 12-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) Brickstore can already export wanted list and inventory XML files ready for importing into Bricklink, it does the conversion between Ldraw and Bricklink colour codes when you import the Ldraw file. It will even open your browser to the import (...) (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) Except that in Sweden (other places too, maybe) it's 'skv' - semi-colon separated values with decimal comma. Excel on a Swedish computer should in theory be able to import csv, but one often gets interesting surprises (Decimal points makes it (...) (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) As far as I know, entries in a csv can be quoted. I just have to figure out how, and quote if I run across a comma in the data. (...) Thanks. That one could be useful. It's not an exact match. For example, I'd have to use MINQTY for the (...) (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: dat file for wedge piece 50955 and 50956
 
(...) I too could use these pieces. I better start trying to author some parts myself. Jim (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) Yes, maybe even better/safer due to possible (if possible at all) commas in part names. (...) Hm, how about the (URL) BrickLink's wanted list format>? I guess that one might be very useful. (...) Haha, sorry for that :) I currently work more (...) (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Counting Parts in MPD file
 
(...) Thanks for the suggestions. Both suggestions seem reasonable (for 3.3, probably; definitely not for 3.2). I had actually planned to support multiple output formats in the future, but wasn't sure what they should be. csv is certainly one of the (...) (17 years ago, 10-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
