Hi again, after a bit long wait time, here is my application new release. Nothing really exciting, just some fixes and some improvements especially in the user interface, so no videos this time. It is highly recommended that you preserve a copy of (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Well, here's the Clown hair: (URL) one needed even more triangles to get the surface to look right, which I'm going to assume will be bad for LDraw conversion. If I make the triangle count more reasonable, the surface gets so smooth you might (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I just had a look at the real parts in that kit, and I guess the answer to my own question is "No". I could scan the helmet piece in the new Clone Trooper pack, but I don't think the results would be what you wanted.. The new parts are much (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Philo, I've sent you the STL file for the Anakin Skywalker hair piece and the Senate Commando helmet. I’m not really satisfied with how the front of the part looks; if you look at the picture on Peeron there’s a lot more definition in the hair (...)

Hi Reuben & Darell, (...) Yes, they look good. At first sight triangulation has too many triangles for a LDraw file, but it's easy to reduce. (...) I could have a try, but don't expect it so soon... Another problem is that I don't have the real part (...) (14 years ago, 22-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) FYI, it's called a "telecentric lens". Wikipedia: (URL) sure these are commonly available to the hobbyist market, though. -Mike (14 years ago, 22-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Can any of the experienced part authors confirm whether Darrell's files are suitable for making an LDraw part? From the visuals they look pretty good, but I'm no expert on the details needed to convert this type of model into a real part file. (...)

(...) I think that making good photos is the best way. You need a camera with good optical zoom, make your photos directly in front of head, and from a distance to minimize field of view. The photo you get is not very different from a projection on (...) (14 years ago, 21-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I finished the other helmet in the magnet pack yesterday ("Senate Commando"), but I guess that wasn't the one you were looking for.. Has someone already done a DAT file for that? Or for the last figure in the pack, "Ashoka Tano"? If someone's (...) (14 years ago, 20-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Here are some ideas: 1. If you know the exact physical dimensions/characteristics of your digital camera (focal length, aperture, diode size, etc.) I bet you can find a tool or collection of algorithms online that you can use to convert the (...)
