(...) Hum.. not sure I have never tried using either with LPub. If and when you do can you please let the rest of us know if they work or do not work. -AHui LDraw Help Desk (22 years ago, 4-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: Generating pictures of steps
 
(...) This has NOT been fixed yet, but the soultion is very very simple. After using LPub and you want to use POV WITHOUT LPUb just open up POV-Ray and click on the INI icon button.

(...) Once I figure out how the Buffer Exchange and Rotations Steps work in MLCad, will LPub do these aswell? Jaco (22 years ago, 4-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: Generating pictures of steps
 
Hi Ahui, I know LPub, but it ruins my POV Ray. Once I use LPub, POV Ray won't work anymore! It has problems with the ini file(s)... Or is that solved in a new version of LPub? Greetingz... Jaco (...) (22 years ago, 4-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)

(...) You can use a very simple program called LPub. Here is the link for it. LPUB will creating building instruction images for any LDraw file and will also create the parts needed per step. (URL) Help Desk (22 years ago, 4-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Generating pictures of steps
 
Hi all, Another post here to seperate the threads. I am making instructions for a model that uses submodels (MPD). But to generate the same proportion renders for all these submodels as individual instructions is hard. Is there a way in MLCad to (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Buffer Exchange, Ghost parts and Rotation Steps
 
Hi all, Does anyone have example DAT and/or MPD files that are using the Buffer Exchange, Ghost parts and Rotation Steps in MLCad? I do not understand these at all, but I know they can be a powerfull tool in making instructions. No offense Michael, (...) (22 years ago, 3-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.inst)

  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) Most, but not all, of the unofficial parts have "Unofficial Part" or something like that as a comment. -Orion (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) Unfortunately is this no option because MLCad looks for parts in the parts.lst. And there are only the first lines of each dat-file. CU Bernd (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) Actually, you would have to put all the /P items into the main directory with the 48 segment files in a /48 subdirectory. So basically you would have a directory with all the parts and primitives with a /S subdirectory for subparts and a /48 (...) (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) You could do this but it requires 2 things that are rather undesirable: -You have to go through all the unofficial part to make sure that all of them had the word "Unofficial". Since the unofficial library currently has almost 1000 parts, this (...) (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
You can do this. Just add the word "Unofficial" somewhere in the description of the part. Then, rerun mklist.exe. Afterward, edit the file MLCad.grp in the MLCad directory. To add a new category called "Unofficial", you would add the following lines (...) (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) I agree that a good feature to add in the next version of MLCad would be a user specified unofficial parts directory. Yes, this directory would require a /S and /P subdirectories. But if you dump the entire contents of the ldrawunf.zip the /S (...) (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) This IS a good and clever workaround but I think the idea of an UNOFFICIAL directory DOES have merit... the issue is that to do it right would you need an /s and /p directories too? (22 years ago, 29-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) Ouch! Now that I've recovered from smacking myself in the head, I can only say, that's a simple, elegant solution. Then I can use folders for MOCs. Jeez, I hate when I miss something so obvious! James (22 years ago, 28-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
(...) One way I use is to dump all the parts into the LDRAW\MODELS directory. They can't be in a subdirectory of the MODELS folder. This works fine if you don't make extensive use of the MODELS directory. If you do use this directory for storing you (...) (22 years ago, 28-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Feature Request - Unofficial Parts category
 
Would it be possible to add a category for Unofficial parts to the MLCad tree? That way unofficial parts could be dumped into a separate directory (sorry, "folder") and yet still show up in the list. Or is it possible already? Thanks, James Wilson (...) (22 years ago, 28-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
