  Jets, Props, and Choppers: Alternate Models with Instructions
 
Here are samples from a few of the instructions I've posted to (URL) Flickr> recently. What these four models have in common is that they are flying machines and that they are alternate models for actual sets (the 6208 B-Wing, the 4955 Big Rig, and (...)

  LDconfig.ldr - missing colors
 
Hi gang, playing around with colors I was floored by the fact that we do not have a LDraw color number or RGBs for quite a lot of LEGO colors. In addition our RGBs sometimes differ a lot from the official colors: (URL) remember the time when we were (...)

  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) Absolutely! We're whittling away at the bugs, but things get consistently better. However much you want the new code, I want you to have the new code more, but I want the new code to have better quality than the old code. If you're getting (...)

  Re: Help with Patterns
 
(...) Unfortunately, I don't think that T-junctions can be made visible in MLCad, since I don't think it has a wireframe mode. However, if you use LDraw Design Pad with LDView in polling mode, you can set LDView to wireframe, and the T-junctions (...) (16 years ago, 27-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) etc. (...) I was wondering if you upload a more concrete example using a lego editing tool and show what the difference would look like between the three examples using one of them - it would be helpful to me to be able to see something that (...)

  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) Hi Kevin, Any chance for a new beta with all those new features for the rest of us who didn't manage to compile the sources? Philo (16 years ago, 27-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) Jim has the advantage because he can build his own Mac version of LPub4 from sourceforge sources. His (and my) version have the fix for anything "callout" related being put inside the callout. Some things go in the callout, and others go in (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: Questions About Selling Custom Model Instructions: Confirming LEGO/LDraw Consent
 
(...) The difference is you are selling an image of a product and NOT an exact duplicate of a product. LEGO may have certain trademarks over the specific design of their bricks, their name, their branding, etc., but they can't stop anyone from (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad)  
 
  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) I believe that's true. The CVS logs suggest I added support for the "Unofficial" directory in ldglite last April, but never managed to release the new executables on the website. (Gotta do that now that it's no longer so unbearably hot in the (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) For what it's worth, I use unofficial parts stored in an "Unofficial" directory in most of my models, and that hasn't caused any trouble with the instructions I've created with LPub 4. I use LDView as a renderer. Jim (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers

  Re: Help with Patterns
 
(...) you put the two images from my post into LDraw's gallery, and send me links to them, I'll add a page to ldraw.org. --Travis (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) I believe that LPub already supports it. However, I don't think ldglite does, so it might only work if LDView is the renderer. --Travis (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: LEGO in auction titles (was: Questions About Selling Custom Model Instructions)
 
(...) Let me expand on this a bit before I set in confusion amount the readers. If you are selling an offical LEGO product (say Star Wars Falcon #100) you **CAN** in the title say: "LEGO Star Wars Falcon #100" or use the term "LEGO" becuase you are (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) How do you make this directory structure work with LPub? (sorry, I do the _bad_ thing and put all my unofficial files in my default LDraw parts folder...) Philo (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Help with Patterns
 
(...) It's the same thing. Actually, it's worse -- rect.dat has edge-lines. So it can't be used in place of a quad. Generally, avoiding t-junctions is harder when working with primitives - you have to know where the outside vertices are on the (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: LPub4 and Killer Dozers
 
(...) And exactly how should LEGO CAD programs work? Like you want them to? Or like the programmers, who in most cases does it for nothing, want them to? I get a headache every time someone complains about this, and I bet Travis (you know, the guy (...) (16 years ago, 26-Aug-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.technic)
