  Re: LPub is slow on Windows 7
 
(...) Windows 7 performance issues have come up a few times already, here and possibly at the forums on ldraw.org. (URL) might point to a fix, or to someone who has one. (13 years ago, 5-Mar-12, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub is slow on Windows 7
 
Ever since I was issued a new laptop from work and installed lpub on it, it takes ages to do any kind of render operation. I am guessing there's some security setting in Windows that has to time out every time it invokes the external program to do (...) (13 years ago, 5-Mar-12, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub not generating torus in output images
 
(...) Hi Dave, That is a really old version of LPub. I can imagine that you are using it for a reason, like you want to render with POV, but if that is not the case, I suggest you update LPub to version 4.0.0.11. It renders using LDView or LDGLite (...) (13 years ago, 5-Mar-12, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub not generating torus in output images
 
I'm using LPub v 2.4.8.0, and I've noticed that it completely omits POV-Ray torus objects in the output images. Any idea why this might be happening? (13 years ago, 4-Mar-12, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: *** MLCad V3.40 ***
 
(...) Thanks Willy. First it would work at all, even i replaced the old LDConfig file.

  Re: 3D printers
 
(...) I built a Prusa 3D printer. I've had it for about 6 months. (one of the reasons I've been quiet on Lugnet) I have tried to print Lego, and while my success with it was limited, I lay that solely at the feat of not getting the printer fully (...) (13 years ago, 28-Feb-12, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D printers
 
(...) Agreed. I've seen people print 2x2 bricks, but just for fun. One thing I've considered is to use a reprap to print foundations for hills in a layout, so I only need to use bricks and plates for the visible top layer of the hills. For that (...) (13 years ago, 28-Feb-12, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

  Re: 3D printers
 
(...) I don't think there's any 3D printing technology available that hits the tolerances needed for functional Lego compatible pieces (I think Lego pieces are manufactured to ±.0006") The resolution on filament fed printers (fused deposition (...) (13 years ago, 27-Feb-12, to lugnet.cad)

I received a reply from Mike G. and he said that we could use his models, and that he would update all his models with a compatible software license.
