(...) Hi Rolf, Maybe you can submit it to Parts Tracker with a Needs Work notice? It certainly looks good enough for many uses! Philo (14 years ago, 29-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)

Hello Joshua How does one aquire these building instructions? With friendly greetings, Manfred Moolhuysen. (14 years ago, 25-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LEGOLAND California Ambassador Class 2010 BI
 
(...) ALE = Adult LEGO Enthusiast (as pointed out) By "arrived," I meant BI so close to official that it's hard to tell apart from the "real thing," and so good that TLG (or, at least, a part of it) allowed me to use LEGO enthusiast-created tools (...) (14 years ago, 25-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LEGOLAND California Ambassador Class 2010 BI
 
(...) Well it's possible Joshua was actually referring to amber fluid, however I think he probably meant "Adult LEGO Enthusiast". Or maybe both. ROSCO (14 years ago, 25-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LEGOLAND California Ambassador Class 2010 BI
 
(...) <snip> (...) Hi Joshua, What does ALE stand for? No offense, but in the world of BI's, I thought we'd been here for quite a while?!?!? Kevin (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)

Does anyone have a dat file or a mock-up for the referenced part? TNX Joseph (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw BFC Tool
 
(...) SNIP If I am right, this file would have error messages with L3P and DATHeader as the two lines are identical. So one line has to be deleted. cu mikeheide (14 years ago, 23-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  LEGOLAND California Ambassador Class 2010 BI
 
LEGOLAND California's Ambassador Pass Master Model Builder classes start today for the 2010 season. While I'm not a passholder, I have seen examples of past work, and I have to say that I think Gary has "outdone the brand" this year. This year's (...)

  Re: LSynth Rubber Band Tutorial
 
(...) Dang, I wish I knew French! That is a pretty intense web page, and the results look amazing! Someone's been busy adding new belt and hose types! Also, Don, you've done a great job on the trickiest of the math bits. Thanks! Kevin (...) (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: LSynth Rubber Band Tutorial
 
(...) There's a tutorial in French here that appears to expand on Willy's tutorial. (URL) on the pictures it looks like there are plenty of examples of rubber bands and belts. Have fun, Don (14 years ago, 17-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: *** MLCad V3.30 *** new feature request
 
(...) LeoCAM had a really rudimentary "snap-to" functionality added to LeoCAD. It didn't work entirely well, and was never entirely completed (as it was an academic proof, rather than an actual attempt to create a functionality). The sources have (...)

  LSynth Rubber Band Tutorial
 
I have been playing around with MLCAD and LSynth, and have had lots of luck when generating point-to-point and point-through-point items like cables and hoses. However, I have had exactly no luck trying to generate rubber bands and belts. I see (...) (14 years ago, 17-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) Thanks for the awesome set of links!! Saves me a ton of work! I will have to see how well they integrate with LDraw generated models. Mike (14 years ago, 16-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: *** MLCad V3.30 *** new feature request
 
(...) You could try to track down a copy of leoCAM. Maybe that'll do it. Or perhaps some of the leoCAM features have migrated back into leocad? I don't know, but it might be worth a look. Good luck, Don (14 years ago, 15-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Well, after a long discussion with Sergio via e-mail and a period of trying different things, it appears that SR3DBuilder will only run (both now and in the future) on a native installation of Windows (not even a virtual machine) that has a (...)

  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) Wow, you're right! I was able to import an OBJ version of my minifig created with LdrDat2Obj. It didn't like the 3DS version I created with LDView for some reason, however. I'm reading one of the tutorials on animation right now. I have a (...) (14 years ago, 8-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) A warning though: When you download the trial version of Poser 8 they ask for your credit card number. And in my case they charged $1 to it despite the trial version being free and the invoice showing $0. Mike (14 years ago, 8-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) I'm pretty sure you can do these kinds of things with blender (URL) it has a steep learning curve, and you'll have to create the minifig models from scratch. Roland (14 years ago, 8-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) I did a little research. You can create bones and poses in Daz3D Studio and Poser. Poser 8 costs $250, but you can buy Poser 7 for $50. Daz3D Studio is free, but you have to buy a $30 plugin to create your own bones and poses from scratch. (...) (14 years ago, 8-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: BFC problems, model or converter?
 
(...) It does work rather well (MeshLab does support 3DS)... (...) Indeed, it seems that invertnext statement is ignored. On the minifig, only front and inside of hands are shown backwards in MeshLab (other inverted areas such as cap inside are (...) (14 years ago, 3-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Starfighter instructions

  Re: BFC problems, model or converter?
 
(...) If MeshLab suppors 3DS files, you might try using LDView to convert the file to 3DS format. Load the file in LDView, then select File->Export, then select "3DS: 3D-Studio File" in the "Save as type" pop-up. Unfortunately, LDView's 3DS exporter (...) (14 years ago, 2-Aug-10, to lugnet.cad)

  Parts Update installation
 
I'm a little confused about the installation procedure. Are the parts updates cumulative? I mean, do they contain all the parts of the previous updates, or do I have to install them in a particular order? The LDraw.org website doesn't explain this, (...) (14 years ago, 31-Jul-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Advanced minifig animations
 
(...) How about via exporting to a different format? I'm not that familiar with 3D modeling software, but some of them support "bones" and skeletal animation. Not sure though if there are any free ones. (14 years ago, 31-Jul-10, to lugnet.cad)
