(...) Why using a special program? First build the half of your model. This model is then referenced by the main file with a line like 1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat The next line is then 1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat Got (...)

(...) Christian, Mike is showing you a very nice magic trick that can be performed using the rotation matrix associated with each part added in an LDraw model. An LDraw type 1 line has this format: 1 <color> <x> <y> <z> <a> <b> <c> <d> <e> <f> <g> (...) (15 years ago, 30-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) If you put a minus sign in front of one of the ones in an identity matrix, and leave everything else alone, it will mirror about the corresponding axis. For example, this one uses your original geometry, and mirrors the black part around the X (...) (15 years ago, 30-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) Oh, I made a mistake. It should be for the second line for rotation about Y: The next line is then 1 16 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 modelhalf.dat You have to make sure that the origin of your modelhalf.dat will be at the "mirror surface". Here an (...) (15 years ago, 30-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) They should be fine if you use LDView to do the POV export, and make sure "Fix mirrored stud logos" is checked in the export options, and don't use LGEO parts. (Granted, that last requirement is annoying, but hopefully I'll get it fixed at (...) (15 years ago, 31-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
