  Re: L3PAO Problems
 
(...) Go ahead! I'm not going to include L3P into the AIOI as long as there is no user friendly GUI that lowers the entrance bar for novice users. w. (13 years ago, 16-May-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Top 30 LDraw parts authors
 
(...) Wow! I'm still on the 5th position, even though I don't author parts anymore. Well, it's only a matter of time before I'm on the 7th... But if I have had to guess, I may have said I'm at 15th or so. :) /Tore (13 years ago, 16-May-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  L3PAO Problems
 
(...) As much as I hate the thought of "stealing" somebody else's idea, I am very much tempted to make my own frontend GUI to L3P. (I already copied the "Digest" into LDA.) There are too many problems with L3PAO, and if we can't contact Jeff, I'm (...) (13 years ago, 16-May-11, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: MPD to LDR
 
(...) Hi all, I've found the solution!! It can be done with MLCAD. I was looking in the menu Multipart and then Export Models... This gives the LDR files separately from the MPD-file.

  Re: Top 30 LDraw parts authors
 
Well, OK, if you're going to limit your survey to just Lego parts :-) I have a library of 188 LDraw "Minibrix" parts that I maintain and publish to a wide and growing community. Seriously, though, I know how much time and effort it took to make my (...) (13 years ago, 16-May-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  MPD to LDR
 
Hi all, I have an MPD-file that consist of submodels. Is there an easy way to create an LDR file that contains all the parts, but is not branched?

  Top 30 LDraw parts authors
