  Dancing Mech Modeling/animatino LDraw/POV-Ray Video Tutorial Series
 
I'd happy to announce a new tutorial: Dancing Mech Modeling/animatino LDraw/POV-Ray Video Tutorial Series (URL) From the webpage: This series of videos walks through the process of creating a dancing mech from start to finish. Here are the (...) (18 years ago, 16-Mar-07, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad, lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Which is *exactly* what I've been trying to say (to other people in the past as well). I've also figured out a way to use an LDraw editor to create keyframes (because I'm tired of having to imagine everything and render and have it come out so (...)

  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) I guess what I'm trying to say is that if you spend the time learning how to use POVray rather than writing a GUI MPD editor then not only can you do what you describe really easily, as an added bonus you can make your renders look good in the (...)

  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Well, great, also with a graphical settings editor? Is there any alternative for L3P then, which is written completely in POV-Ray? Or would the POV-Ray script have to call L3P then? Thanks for improving my knowledge on POV-Ray :-), regards, (...) (18 years ago, 16-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files

  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Well, can you create a POV-Ray file which will automatically read in an LDraw MPD file and use settings files or maybe even a GUI to select submodels from the MPD file and render those to several picture files? That would be an interesting (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Neat. I look forward to this, because I've been meaning to learn more about POV-Ray. I've been putting off doing final renderings for my recent LDraw models because POV-Ray has been a bit of a black box. Your point about its relative (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Why not learn POV-Ray? If you know VB or C# or any language for that matter, POV-Ray is really simple compared to them (much less syntax to learn). I'm creating a new LDraw POV-Ray video tutorial that I hope to get online today or sometime (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Hi, your programme is written with Visual Basic? By now, I'm thinking about creating a little tool for doing some kind of "batch rendering of several submodels from certain camera positions" and automatical combination of those rendered (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) My L3PGen program supports this. When you open a MPD file, it will show a list of all the "models" at the top allowing you to select which to rerender. (URL) and all feedback is welcome. Thanks (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
