  Animated minfigs
 
Which tools can be used to create minifig animations? And who has created some of these animations? -Mike (14 years ago, 27-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
(...) Yes, better have more resolution at the beginning. In many cases I downsample differently on different sections of parts. Eg. for Dobby's head ((URL) I first reduced polygon count to a high value, then reduced again in all areas except (...) (14 years ago, 24-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
(...) Thanks, Philo! In that case, I shall rescan without the head, from more angles, and with finer settings - I was trying (unsuccessfully) to try and limit the polygon count by scanning in lower resolution, but if you're using other software to (...)

  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
Hi Darrel, (...) Indeed, the face is not really needed here. Your scanner properly creates a file in millimeter units, scaling by 2.5 directly provides LDU. (...) From my experience with laser scanner, some smoothing can't be avoided because the (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  SR 3D Builder 0.5.6.8 released
 
Hi again, after a bit long wait time, here is my application new release. Nothing really exciting, just some fixes and some improvements especially in the user interface, so no videos this time. It is highly recommended that you preserve a copy of (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
(...) Well, here's the Clown hair: (URL) one needed even more triangles to get the surface to look right, which I'm going to assume will be bad for LDraw conversion. If I make the triangle count more reasonable, the surface gets so smooth you might (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
(...) I just had a look at the real parts in that kit, and I guess the answer to my own question is "No". I could scan the helmet piece in the new Clone Trooper pack, but I don't think the results would be what you wanted.. The new parts are much (...) (14 years ago, 23-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
Hi Philo, I've sent you the STL file for the Anakin Skywalker hair piece and the Senate Commando helmet. I’m not really satisfied with how the front of the part looks; if you look at the picture on Peeron there’s a lot more definition in the hair (...)

  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
Hi Reuben & Darell, (...) Yes, they look good. At first sight triangulation has too many triangles for a LDraw file, but it's easy to reduce. (...) I could have a try, but don't expect it so soon... Another problem is that I don't have the real part (...) (14 years ago, 22-Mar-11, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: 3D laser scanning
 
(...) Can any of the experienced part authors confirm whether Darrell's files are suitable for making an LDraw part? From the visuals they look pretty good, but I'm no expert on the details needed to convert this type of model into a real part file. (...)
