I am proud to introduce Color Manager for MLCAD and Ldraw. (URL) The main feature of Color Manager is to filter your parts list to only those pieces that are available (from Bricklink) in the color that you choose. This allows the user to build (...)

(...) Travis; You, of course, are correct. Home Basic and Home Premium cannot be virtualized, but the more expensive version can. Just recently MS was going to change the EULA to allow virtualization, but then changed its mind back. --Jim (18 years ago, 4-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I run Windows XP on my Mac via dual boot and VMWare Fusion and have had zero problems with any LDraw related software. I also run Vista on a dedicated laptop and have had few issues with some older programs (LeoCAD to be specific) but no show (...) (18 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) That's not 100% accurate. Vista Business and Vista Ultimate can both be legally run in a VM, as far as I understand. --Travis (18 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Tim, I cannot comment directly on the LDraw software or on Parallels, however I run Vista via Bootcamp on my Intel IMac without any problems. If you can stand this additional inconveinance there should be no problem running LDraw software or (...) (18 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) What specific Windows LDraw software do you want to use? I would just check whether there are any Vista compatibility issues with those programs. (I haven't heard of any.) Jim (18 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

 | | Re: Using LDraw (and LeoCAD, LDGLite, LDView) on 64 bit Linux?

(...) A six year old version doesn't sound all that great. How hard would it be to get the current version to compile under x64? Failing that, how hard would it be to get the 32 bit version running under x64? With commands like linux32 and such I'm (...)

I just bought Parallels with the intent of running Windows LDraw software and eventually Microsoft Flight Simulator X. Now comes the decision: Should I go with XP or Vista? I've heard bad about Vista in the IT community, and I can scrounge an XP (...) (18 years ago, 3-May-08, to lugnet.cad)

Sorry, I missed your bug report. LeoCAD used to compile on 64 bit computers but it's been a long time since I last tried and I don't have access to one anymore. From your bug report it looks like 'make config' is failing. You can either manually (...) (18 years ago, 2-May-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.leocad)

(...) A 32-bit build of LDView should work fine as long as you have the 32-bit shared libraries installed that it needs. If you want, I can work with you to get it up and running. As it happens, I have successfully built a 32-bit version of the (...) (18 years ago, 2-May-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.leocad)

(...) About 6 years ago there was a build of ldglite ran in 64bit linux on an alpha processor. It could possibly be made to work again but I can't really recommend it because the old LEDIT tutorial is now long gone from here: (URL) the tutorial it'd (...)

I'm just starting out with LDraw and I'm having a heck of a time trying to get anything running under my 64 bit Ubuntu 7.10 system. I'm mostly interested in LeoCAD, since it is the only native Linux building system that I know of. Since there are no (...) (18 years ago, 2-May-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.leocad)

Does anybody know about commandline options for viewertools other than LDView to save the picture of a model/part (ldr,dat or mpd)? I know there are several prog's that can save a picture, but I do not know how to do that at the commandline. cu (...) (18 years ago, 2-May-08, to lugnet.cad)
