LDLite ver 2.2 and above has a working -R option to regenerate the file in standard LDRAW syntax. "ldlite -Rfoo.dat m_faust.dat" would do the conversion. There are other programs.

Hey, that's cool! My brother, not a Lego User, gave me the great idea that you can build a model using steps and (probably) ghosting to make a Lego movie appear on the screen. I gotta try that... Nice job, Michael, --Ryan (23 years ago, 17-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Completely different. The rotate feature generates a model out of bricks by rotating an outline. For example, give it a semicircle, and it will generate plans for a sphere made out of bricks.
