I have been working at creating some custom Minifig Torso DAT files for LDraw. I should preface everything by saying that I am NOT an LDraw Parts author. All of these were created by essentially taking a plain torso file and applying these like a (...) (16 years ago, 6-Apr-08, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX) !

Hi all, Just thought I'd check to see if anyone was working on part 32475 ((URL) It's a horrid part to work on so I'm hoping someone has but realise it's probably unlikely. Thanks, Tim (16 years ago, 27-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

30035.dat uses stud.dat in a location that isn't really a stud, but is the same shape as a stud. This leads to a rendering problem if stud logos are enabled: (URL) (Notice the LEGO logo peeking out from under the pole.) Is the above considered (...)
