  Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room.
 
Pardon me for being stupid; I didn't look at the category before I replied. With CAD, you don't have to worry about weight. But, I still can't do it. Sorry. -Chris (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Gonna build a mountain in my living room.
 
(...) I can't do it for you; I don't have the resources nor the time. But, I can give a suggestion. BURPS. Lots and lots of BURPS. They're ugly, yes, but they'll make the mountain look good and keep it light. Plus, they stack in various patterns (...) (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Gonna build a mountain in my living room.
 
I am trying to build a greenhouse and I want to have a mountain in the middle. I haven't figured out any good ways to make one though, so I was wondering if anyone would build one for me, please? I would request that it is about 50 studs wide (at (...) (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

(...) The roll cage on mine doesn't open anyway...the driver has to enter through the side or top. I wonder what I could use to make forks that would fit...short (ie, fat) antennas, maybe? --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com (...) (25 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
Sorry about the last message; sounded kinda rude. Anyway, yeah they (claws) would look more like forks if they were longer, but then how would the operator get out while carrying a load? Oh well, seems like every loader would have that problem (...) (25 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
(...) Cool! I just looked through all your renderings, and they look nice! I might have to render the loader in the Pentapterigoid hangar... --Bram (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

I see what you're saying, but I think they could work as forks rather than arms. Ben -- Ben Vaughan ben@marsbase.com (URL) Pejic" <milovan@netcom.ca> wrote in message news:FruHuu.38z@lugnet.com...

(...) If you like my renderings, check out what I did with this YAL: (URL) can see the problems with the hands.

How could it lift cargo if the rollbar gets in the way? Look at them, they can't touch each other and are way too small to hold large objects. (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
(...) There's a beta version of L3P which does recognize the LDLite commands, and I would guess that the DAT->POV converter in L3Lab would too, as L3Lab does. (Is that the converter the beta L3P?)

  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
(...) You can tell the arms were an afterthought...while building, I left the last stud on the 3x1 inverse slopes uncovered so I could attach arms later.

(...) I really enjoy seeing your renderings. You have some mighty impressive castle stuff on your pages. Keep it up! :-, Cheers, - jsproat (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
(...) That's much better, however, even in L3LAB, the hands don't attach to the arms. How can I fix it? I really enjoying rendering these images for my desktop wallpaper. -Chuck (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
(...) Try viewing it with LDLite or L3Lab. The minifig was made using LDao's Minifig Modeler, which spits out code with LDLite language extensions. MLCAD and L3P don't recognize the LDLite commands, so they render incorrectly. BTW: the newest (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

  Re: YAL: Yet Another Loader :)
 
I love the loader, but the minifig seems to hav had a melt down. When I load it into mlcad, or convert it with L3P, the minifig parts are all stacked on top of each other like they were not transformed or rotated. Is anyone else seing this? -Chuck (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
