  Re: LPub/LSynth Moving parts in Instructions and setting colors
 
(...) If you already ran LSynth you can still change the colour by selecting the hwole wire and then selecting the colour of your choice from the colour bar. Jetro (15 years ago, 2-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  MLCAD Spring Color Question
 
Ever since the new ldconfig.ldr update with the new colors, I'm getting a strange behavior in springs. When you use the spring generator in MLCAD, for some reason it assigns the color 250 to the edge lines regardless of the color of the spring (...) (15 years ago, 1-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub/LSynth Moving parts in Instructions and setting colors
 
(...) I think you do it on the SYNTH BEGIN line. Here's first line of an orange cable in one of Willy's examples. Orange is color 25. 0 SYNTH BEGIN ELECTRIC_NXT_CABLE 25 Have fun, Don (15 years ago, 1-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub/LSynth Moving parts in Instructions and setting colors
 
(...) Hi Gus, You're welcome. In fact since the early days of LSynth 2.0, I have not touched the code much. Don Heyse and Willy Tschager have been working together on this and really improving things, so thanks goes to them too. (...) Buffer (...) (15 years ago, 1-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub/LSynth Moving parts in Instructions and setting colors
 
Hi All, I have just updated to the latest version of LPub and LSynth and WOW!, they are awesome. Thank you, Kevin! I'm trying to do something a little tricky in a set of Technic instructions and I'm not sure how to do it. I need to show parts with (...) (15 years ago, 1-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw2BrickLink script
 
(...) Yeah, I think I remember seeing your post on the Blender importer. That was really interesting! Would you mind posting a few pictures of your models rendered in Blender? Scott (15 years ago, 24-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.market.brickshops)
 
  Re: LDraw2BrickLink script
 
(...) I've heard of BrickStore, but I didn't know it could import LDraw files and export XML for searching. I'll look into it. The script really wasn't much work gone to waste. I might still use it. Also, I made a Blender LDraw importer even though (...) (15 years ago, 23-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.market.brickshops)
 
  Re: LDraw2BrickLink script
 
(...) It isn't very well advertised, but you should check out BrickStore (URL) It is open source and does the same thing in a GUI. After spending hours and hours programming StickerGenerator, I was told that there was already a Bitmap2LDraw. I now (...) (15 years ago, 19-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.market.brickshops)
 
  LDraw2BrickLink script
 
Hi, I made a simple Python script, which you can download here: (URL) takes an LDraw model file as input and outputs BrickLink XML, which can be pasted into a search here: (URL) might be useful for people who wish to build a mockup/prototype of a (...)

  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) Yeah, I actually wanted to do that too in the begining. I can't remember how long we have been working on the release of this file, but it has been a long time for me. I'm not sure I have enough fight left in me to support (and drag this out (...) (15 years ago, 19-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
Oh yeah, one more thing. If you've gotta sort alphabetically, I say don't discriminate. Sort the Lego core colors in the 30000 range alphabetically too. What? You say can't do that, because those numbers mean something? How could that be? I'm gonna (...) (15 years ago, 19-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) Personally I find it harder to remember all the silly names than to remember the basic colors by number. If they aren't sorted by color then I still want red, blue, yellow, black, white, and grey near the top of the list. The numeric order has (...)

  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) Each program that reads and uses the LDconfig.ldr file should know how best to display the colors. If the program shows color swaths, then it does make good sense for the program to display them in a Hue-Saturation-Brightness order. For (...)

  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) Now that's what I'm talking about! I just didn't say it right. ;) If you're not going to list the colors in ldconfig.ldr sorted by number then pick a useful ordering like Hue-Saturation-Brightness. Alphabetic order is not much better than (...) (15 years ago, 18-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: lxf to 4pk converter
 
I am sorry but I made a little mistake. While I was refactoring I destroyed the calculation of the hinge joint angles. I have fixed this (version 0.2.1): (URL) (15 years ago, 18-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) Duplicated colors are my deepest concern. Below is a screenshot of Bricksmith's color picker using the new ldconfig.ldr: (URL) I can't just hide the TLG colors. For one thing, some of them don't seem to have non-TLG counterparts (like (...) (15 years ago, 18-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) I think group sub-sorting might be more trouble than it's worth. Editors can just sort the colors by Hue-Saturation-Brightness. That's what Bricksmith does. It's a simple mathematical transformation. (URL) Allen (15 years ago, 18-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  lxf to 4pk converter
 
Hey, a new version of our converter is online. He now is capable of generating files for the LD4DStudio, too (first draft): a very rudimentary project file (4pj; if it does not exist) and a package file (4pk) with actors, a monitor, controls etc. (...) (15 years ago, 17-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
(...) The 2006-2007 LSC agreed with this also, which is why we added the part about "(needs work)" to the (URL) LDraw.org Official Library Header Specification>. --Travis (15 years ago, 14-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
--snip-- (...) The majority of LDraw users I know of outside LUGNET (flickr, facebook and TBB) use MLCAD and LDview for their LDraw experience. It's not a full poll and it's not a big sample but it's probably a better example of 'new users' than (...) (15 years ago, 14-Aug-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
