  Re: MLCad being used by Lego Universe dev team?
 
The LDraw suite of tools might be the easier method to create simple models from scratch than the heavyweight parts-authoring tools they probably use in-house. In fact, I still find the original ledit.exe by James Jessiman to be in many ways more (...) (16 years ago, 3-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
One additional suggestion I'd like to make is to, instead of writing the same data repeatedly over and over for each part, store the part data (matrix transformations and materials) in arrays and then traverse at the end of a file using loops. (...) (16 years ago, 3-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)

  MLCad being used by Lego Universe dev team?

  Re: MOC Updates
 
(...) Thanks! I'm working on an interactive tour using panoramic images. The scenes are taking a long time to render, so it might still be a few days before I am finished. -Mike (16 years ago, 3-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

(...) ... (...) This is a big update. I heartily recommend you give it a try, especially if you are working with LPub or using a Mac (or both). Travis has made some great additions to the program. Jim (16 years ago, 2-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
