  Re: James Jessiman Memorial Award for 2007 awarded to Kevin Clague
 
(...) Congrats, Kevin! You certainly deserve this award with all of the efforts you've put forth over the years. LPub and your work with flexible elements are nothing short of revolutionary for the LDraw system, and you're a swell guy, too! -Tim (17 years ago, 7-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Custom Minifig Torso DAT files.
 
(...) Thanks Steve, I took your recommendation and tried Quad2Dat. I can see what you mean about it being buggy (and incomplete). It is too bad development on it didn't continue it seems to have a lot of potential. For simple images I can see it (...) (17 years ago, 7-Apr-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Custom Minifig Torso DAT files.
 
(...) My understanding is that you need to save often, with changing filenames. It apparently sometimes crashes during save after it has already clobbered the file. --Travis (17 years ago, 7-Apr-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Need for sample models
 
Hello all, I've been busy with the final stages of the LD4DStudio (www.ld4dstudio.nl) project this weekend. I'm currently looking into making some sample projects. But I'm not too much of a LDraw model designer. So I was wondering if some of you (...) (17 years ago, 6-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad)  
 
  Re: Custom Minifig Torso DAT files.
 
(...) Neat! (...) For further work on custom torsos, I recommend grabbing the program called Quad 2 Dat. This is a fairly easy 2D program, made specifically for people creating LDraw patterned parts. The main problem with Quad2Dat is that it's (...) (17 years ago, 6-Apr-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Custom Minifig Torso DAT files.
 
I have been working at creating some custom Minifig Torso DAT files for LDraw. I should preface everything by saying that I am NOT an LDraw Parts author. All of these were created by essentially taking a plain torso file and applying these like a (...) (17 years ago, 6-Apr-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: LPub Issue
 
Thanks to all of Kevin's help I finally have my first fairly decent set of instructions for one of my MOC's. This was a lot of work but hopefully it means the next time I do this it won't take nearly as long. (URL) -Eric (17 years ago, 3-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: LPub Issue
 
(...) Kevin, This was just want I needed to get past this problem. I had found the extra Step issue already. This is much closer to what I want but I need to get it formated right.

  Re: LPub Issue
 
(...) <snip> (...) LDraw files don't do to well in FTX, so I'm reposting. LPub 4.0 currently renders the building instructions for that submodel twice. It is not smart enough to see the two in the same step and merge them together. I've found that (...) (17 years ago, 3-Apr-08, to lugnet.cad)

  LPub Issue
 
I am a long time user of LDraw, MLCad, and POV but have just started trying to get LPub to work. I am almost there except I can't seem to be able to fix one issue.
