  Re: Mirror Building  [DAT]
 
(...) Christian, Mike is showing you a very nice magic trick that can be performed using the rotation matrix associated with each part added in an LDraw model. An LDraw type 1 line has this format: 1 <color> <x> <y> <z> <a> <b> <c> <d> <e> <f> <g> (...) (16 years ago, 30-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Re: Mirror Building  [DAT]
 
(...) Why using a special program? First build the half of your model. This model is then referenced by the main file with a line like 1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat The next line is then 1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat Got (...)

  Re: Colour 168 = PearlDkGray?
 
(...) Great! That colour really is a colour LDraw has needed for some time, in my humble opinion. :-) (16 years ago, 28-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Colour 168 = PearlDkGray?
 
(...) Hi, as you might know with the help of others I'm currently updating the LDConfig.ldr defining the LDraw colors: (URL) see that I used 148 - Metallic Dark Grey. Hope this helps. w. (16 years ago, 28-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Colour 168 = PearlDkGray?
 
A little question: will the colour 168 (Gun_Metallic) be the colour what is known as PearlDkGray on Peeron? In my opinion, it would fit, but is it really it? (16 years ago, 27-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LSynth 3 available on kclague.net
 
(...) So, tried to do a fresh install of more than just LSynth, and it now works like a charm! It helped to have the newest MLCAD *blush*. No idea on how I managed to still have 3.11 installed. Sorry guys! Cheers, Matija (16 years ago, 26-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Is there an origin point specified in LDRAW parts?
 
(...) Origin of all parts is x=0,y=0,z=0. Where this origin is placed at the part is different. Y-Direction: If the part have studs, then the y=0 is the surface below the studs. If the part has no studs, then it should be at the top of the part, or (...) (16 years ago, 25-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Is there an origin point specified in LDRAW parts?
 
(...) Well, the origin is simply the zero-point X=0;Y=0;Z=0 in all parts, no exceptions. The quads/triangles/line...itives/... are built around that origin. (16 years ago, 25-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Is there an origin point specified in LDRAW parts?
 
If there is an origin point specified in LDRAW part files, I would like to know what is needed in order to calculate it's position and alignment to the x, y, z coordinate system LDRAW uses. Can anyone point me to where I can find information that (...) (16 years ago, 25-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Pneumatic elements
 
(...) Hi Jetro, Constitutive parts of elements (that are not sold separately) have names prefixed with ~ or _. You will find them in "Other parts" -> "Others" category of MLCad. Alternatively, you can also have a look at this list: (URL) and pick (...) (16 years ago, 23-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: NXT based 3D scanner
 
Philo! What a great tool to help your parts authoring. Not only is this creation fantastic, rare and unique, but some of your technical descriptions leave me reaching for my coffee and asprin! Amazing! I love the part of the video where you pan over (...) (16 years ago, 22-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Next parts update?
 
Any idea when the next LDraw parts update will be realeased? So far there are over 700 certified files in the tracker. (16 years ago, 21-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Pneumatic elements
 
(...) You could simply just instruct to inline the compositions - if MLCad only could inline parts! The only ways I know of would be to either - inline them with LDraw Design Pad, which would be kind of tedious in my opinion anyway, or - open the (...) (16 years ago, 21-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Pneumatic elements
 
I'm trying to create an LDraw description of a construction with a large number of Pneumatic elements. Using complete cylinders (either extended or retracted) or switches (neutral position) will make creating the file very hard and may not always be (...) (16 years ago, 21-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad)
