| | Looking for Wheel and Tyre DAT files
|
|
Hi all, I've been building a lot of Technic sets in MLCAD lately and find myself lacking in a certain wheel and tyre combination. The wheel is (URL) 41896>. This is a Technic Racing wheel which is smaller than the other two, also called Race Buggy (...) (15 years ago, 2-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) I'd also like to chime in here to agree with Willy. To make a rubber hose or a minifig chain with LSynth, you must first position the 2 end parts manually. So you need to be able to find them in your parts list. The synth process will place (...) (15 years ago, 3-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'd like to chime in on this but from another perspective: non-consistency when using the tilde. The synthesized hose parts 755 and 756 have the tilde, but the hose end parts 750 and 752 do not. Apply this logic to the minifig chain and the (...) (15 years ago, 3-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) A good way would be to check for the presence of note*.txt files in the models directory. These show which updates have been installed. Prior to 2008-01 ths naming convention was NOTEyyrr.TXT, but now it is NOTEyyrrCA.TXT where yy is the (...) (15 years ago, 1-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) LDView doesn't check for duplicate lines at all, and probably won't ever, since it would add too much time to the loading time. Yes, you could disable that one warning, but I think that too many of my users leave all warnings and errors (...) (15 years ago, 1-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I don't think so, as the official document ((URL) reads like this: Line Type 2 Line type 2 is a line drawn between two points. The generic format is: 2 <colour> x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 Where: * <colour> is a number representing the colour of the (...) (15 years ago, 31-May-09, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Concave is not the same as co-planer. Co-planarity checks to see if all the points in the quad lie on the same plane (with in some tolerance). You can have a co-planer, concave quad. (...) Those are illegal type 2 lines as they have 3 points (...) (15 years ago, 31-May-09, to lugnet.cad)

LEGO parts may vary in colour and pattern, but they are always of the same material. For example, there is no such thing as a Technic Axle 7 made of rubber or the Axle Flexible 7 that's solid, is there? Here I got an idea: have parts identify what (...) (16 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
