  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) Beside reviewing as already pointed out also preparing the parts we've got from the LEGO Universe Team (URL) the Parts Tracker could be an option to get into ldrawing since the shape is already there. Admittedly some of the parts are a (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  In the pipe. (Was- It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?)
 
(...) Steve, as already underlined here: (URL) getting your signed permission for the all-in-one is on of the missing bricks for the next release. Please pick the form: (URL) suits you most, print, sign and return a scanned copy of the permission in (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) There is also Jim Devona's ldmerge ((URL) that can be helpful if you don't want to mix everything. Philo (19 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) No, LDraw is not on its death bed. Things are going on in the background - although with less vigour than I would wish since Christmas, due to an overload of other commitments. Most of the conversion work on the existing official library is (...) (19 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) I think it's definitely something that needs to be considered by each person, since for some people it will work fine, while for others it won't work well at all. LDView uses the directories listed in the tutorial (<LDraw>\Unofficial\P and (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) Better idea? Well, maybe. I'm not sure yet. There's much more to L-Cad than ML-Cad. The question that immediately come to my mind is: What programs will support that scan order info, besides ML-Cad? L3P? L3Lab? LDView? /Tore (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) Bad idea! A much more elegant way to include unofficial parts, without the need ot mix them with the official library can be found here: (URL) w. (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) As pointed out here: (URL) merge the original LDraw core library with the Complete.exe updates. Once the CA-library is published, there will be just one package containing all parts and no Ldraw.exe, LEdit.exe. Plus the library will be (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) No, the six parts are not the reason for the delay but the inconsistency of the part's header with the need to check/convert every single part, plus all the extra work that has to be done for the new package - read: all-in-one-installer, (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) To answer both of your questions, take a look at LDraw.org's (URL) Unofficial Parts> page. Although the 'instructions' are kinda brief. Sorry about that. Basically, you do this: Download the zip file (the link at the bottom of the unofficial (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) Are there instructions anywhere on how to download and install or update unofficial parts? Is there a repository where all the unofficial parts live? Thanks, Paul Sinasohn LUGNET #115 (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) That's what I do, too. And update from time to time. (...) I heartfully agree: we are desperately missing reviewers! While it does require some LDraw knowledge, it is nothing compared to authoring of complex parts... it took me years to get up (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
(...) I'm *sure* that LDraw is not on death row. I have faith that things will get resolved. I'm sure part of the problem is that we have real lives, and sometimes that gets in the way of LEGO. Are you sure you cannot get along with an unofficial (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  LPub Wiki
 
Hi folks, I wanted to let folks now that I am working hard at LPub 4.0, a WYSIWYG building instruction editor. Philo was kind enough to set up a wiki for people to report bugs, add feature requests, and watch the testing process proceed. (URL) I've (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)  
 
  It’s the year 2008, where are my parts updates?
 
It has been over two years since the last LDraw parts update. Where the heck are the new ones? Are we just letting LDraw die? It is really seeming that way. Yes, I’ve read the ‘Lack of Parts Updates’ article. I read it over a year ago. And as far as (...) (19 years ago, 21-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad)  
 
  Library Specifications for Canvas Parts
 
Hi folks, I'm currently working on the "Canvas Wagon Cover with Oval and Two Crossed Cutlasses Pattern" (URL) and before I start cleaning the part for PT-fitness I'd like to ask the LSC for some guidelines, since this is the first canvas part ever (...)

  Re: Which CAD program recommended for Mac??
 
(...) As Travis remarked, many people install a program and then forget about the Read Me, myself included. (...) None what so ever. I often install open source (and even some commercial) programs that have less documentation than yours. (...) No, (...) (19 years ago, 15-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Which CAD program recommended for Mac??
 
(...) I'd suggest moving the Readme into the app wrapper and adding an item to the help menu that uses [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openFile:] to show it. I installed Bricksmith a long time ago, and had completely forgotten that it came with a (...) (19 years ago, 13-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Which CAD program recommended for Mac??
 
(...) Sigh...Nobody ever reads the Read Me. Though those tidbits are indeed documented, I admit documentation is not my strong suit. I generally hope that users will explore menu items and find them to be fairly self-explanatory. (...) I'm curious (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
