(...) I think it was just a silly question, sorry. I meant somewhere in between the 3-D globe and 2-D map... but you can't really apply a square map to a round globe without squishing things. :) -Mike (14 years ago, 30-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Some more requests while I'm at it. You currently have a camera mode that limits the "Examine mode" to exactly horizontal and vertical movement. If you could do something similar for the "Fly-through mode", such that regardless of where the (...) (14 years ago, 30-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hmm, I don't think that would work too well - inevitably the action you want will be slightly different from the action you have in the library (e.g. each minifig action will require 4 different animation sequences, depending on whether he has (...) (14 years ago, 30-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) It could be nice if the tool switched between polygons and studs depending on the slope of the terrain. I like how some of the molded TLG baseplates aren't entirely covered by studs and have some empty spaces. -Mike (14 years ago, 30-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I guess that depends on whether you're talking about a 3-D LEGO globe or a 2-D LEGO map? I'm not sure I quite follow exactly what you're trying to do. I played around a while ago and got a program that would build an LDraw globe based on a 2-D (...) (14 years ago, 29-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)

I've been experimenting with importing terrain heightfields into LDraw. Here are the results: (URL) (One pair of triangles in the terrain mesh is equal to a normal LDraw baseplate in dimensions.) The steps I took: created the heightfield in Wilbur (...) (14 years ago, 28-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
