Dear all,

I've been working hard lately on a program to convert bitmapped images (in • BMP
or RGB) format into vectorised ldraw images. It seems to be working OK now • (with
many caveats) and I hope to have a user-ready version ready soon, along • with a
tutorial on how to use it.

However, since I am having difficulty containing myself I've posted some • teaser
.ldr files into a Brickshelf account. You can see the results here:

and .ldr file

I have no issue with you using the NCLTC logo as long as I can use it too!
What did you start with?  I would imagine I could provide you with a better
starting point if you let me know what you want.  I have a version I created
from the old BMP2DAT utility but it never looks very good when used in
ML-CAD.

When I open your .ldr file with ML-CAD, I get an error on line 6.  Is that a
known issue?

Mike

[ ... snipped ... ] (...) Hi Mike, Of course you're welcome to use it (it being yours). I started with the image from ILTCO and tidied up the anti-aliasing (ie. removed by hand) to generate the .BMP I linked to above (and removed the text... small (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.cad)
