(...) Yes, didn't I? Almost twice as long as your post... ;) (...) Isn't MLCad freeware? I didn't know that. But then again, I'm not an MLCad user. I don't know about a dedicated LDraw chat. Would it really be populated? There's nothing that stops (...) (15 years ago, 22-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

In lugnet.cad, Tore Eriksson wrote a big lengthy post. Maybe we could have a chat channel for LDraw? I myself would suggest of creating an IRC channel for users to sit, ask help for and just chat in. As LDraw itself is free software (even though (...) (15 years ago, 22-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I've never had it properly confirmed but I'm fairly certain the problem with import is that the overlap detection is way too overzealous. Which means that when you read in a file it decides the parts conflict and can't be there. It's (...) (15 years ago, 22-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)

I recently had a Bricksmith user write asking for help importing an LDraw file into LDD. (He was using LDraw because LDD made it very difficult to build his model.) But when he attempts to import the LDraw file, he sees at most the first brick of (...) (15 years ago, 22-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)
