 | | Soccer Ball - plain DAT code [DAT]
|
|
Here's the soccer ball, with the GDL converted to standard LDraw. No LDL or MPD. I also just realized that there are no conditional lines between the facets. Oops. They shouldn't be too hard to add, but I'd start with the LDL code I posted a little (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

And because of the LDLite code, LUGNET doesn't recognize that the post contains an LDraw file. C'est la vie. I was planning on posting plain DAT code as well. That'll be up next. Steve (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Here is an MPD with LDLite code for a soccer ball. The LDLite language extensions allowed me to generate and use the exact values for the vertices more easily than raw LDraw code. Because of the language, I *think* only LDLite (and probably LDGLite) (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I like the flattened sides simply because they are a visible feature of the bricks. But then I would also have tackled the little depression on the top center, too. There is the fact that this particular detail varies from brick to brick. The (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) After looking a little closer at other parts (and some contact with Tore), I have become convinced that the interior details are probably more than we need to model anyway. The only important interior structures are: Center stud Side ribs (the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Sort of, but there's another potential primitive lurking about, that is even more useful, to provide good modeling. This is a (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

This piece is used for the Cutter in 6277, "Imperial Trading Post", as well as in other sets. This was the most accurate descriptive name I could think of. :-/ Please LMKWYT. Thanks, Franklin 0 Bar 12L with Hollow Studs, Towball, and Slit (aka (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Because I was thinking that each section covered 90-degrees of the major circle. Otherwise, they'd be named 16t*0301.dat, since each is 1/16 of a complete torus.
