  legofan.org dead?
 
Hi, all, after some time I took another stroll to legofan.org, and noticed that they still seem to have mayor difficulities over there. The Forums died on 5th of May, reappeared for a few hours and eight posts on 25th/26th of June, and are dead (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jul-06, to lugnet.general)  
 
  Re: Seeking Lugnet community help for a freeware computer game
 
(...) Ahh, I had read about LPub, but I thought it was just for showing someone else how to build your model step-by-step? Will download it now, as "X does the Gruntwork for you" is a very good feature for me! Yes, downloaded LGEO as I saw the (...)

  Re: The Kjeld Billionometer
 
(...) The best part about this is that Kjeld is one of the nicest, kindest, most modest people I've ever met. (I can say this and have you believe me since I'm no longer employed there!) One of my greatest career moments was sitting in his office (...) (18 years ago, 11-Jul-06, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: The Kjeld Billionometer
 
Thanks for the info Suz! When I looked at the Forbes list a few years ago, I remember seeing another Danish name on the list (can't remember it)... but the company associated with that other name is familiar to us all.......MAERSK! I guess when (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: The Corinthian
 
(...) Thanks much. I like the blue guys, so I figured they could use a big ship. God bless, Sean (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: The Corinthian
 
(...) Well, you can -technically- view the lower decks, if by view you mean look down and say 'oh look, you can see lower decks'. I plan on removing the top most deck and then adding details to the lower ones, and also extending the ship slightly so (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Seeking Lugnet community help for a freeware computer game
 
(...) Excellent. I use that to present stuff occasionally too. Its not bad at all. Have you considered using LPub, which can do the gruntwork for you? Also, using LGEO which can make things look a bit nicer, and MEGAPov which gives the Lego a more (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: Seeking Lugnet community help for a freeware computer game
 
(...) Danny, thanks for the reply. I have just discovered the Lcad->MLcad->l3p->povray method, and though I've only done the first 2 steps, I can see (having seen some nice POV renders on websites) the quality that can be achieved. As for your (...) (18 years ago, 10-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: Seeking Lugnet community help for a freeware computer game
 
(...) Hi there Gabriel, This sounds very cool. I am not sure I can help you with provision of sprites, but have you thought of using a script to convert LDraw models to simpler meshes (with textures), and then animating those. I know you are going (...) (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: The Corinthian
 
(...) Ahoy! Good work Sean. I love how many gun ports this provides. One thing I didn't see in the pics was whether you can access/view the lower decks. If not, that might be an interesting feature for your next ship. I like the use of the katana. (...) (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) The 2 guns are available in the batwing, batmobile and batboat too. (each set has one of each gun). None of the figs from the batcave except the batman fig are available in any of the smaller sets. (...) I bought the mythical creatures set, (...) (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.general)

  Summer S@H catalog reactions - all positive!
 
Hey all, Just got mine in the mail a few days ago. In the interests of positivity (of which there seems to be a shortage of these days!) and as a non-fan of the new grays/brown and of Bionicle parts in System sets, I will confine my comments to what (...)

  Re: LEGO® Bandit gets 13 months in prison
 
Well there are two other scams/problems I have heard of 1) Some guys wandering out of the warehouse with Star Destroyers I think it as, and reselling them, but I can't find any original info on that anymore, was about a year or so ago. Employees (...) (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO® Bandit gets 13 months in prison
 
(...) Wow, this is really interesting. Many AFOLs could have these resold sets at home, especially if they were resold through eBay. Has there ever been a Lego-related crime on such scale? I don't recall ever seeing one. -Shiri (18 years ago, 9-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  LEGO Loco Networking?
 
Has anyone ever got the LEGO Loco game to work with networking? My son loves the game, and was so excited to try using it across 2 computers, but although I have tried to do it myself, searched the internet for info on it, searched Lugnet, I can't (...)

Very nice! A little tall for my tastes but all round well done. I haven't seen many ships in blue and white for the original blue (french) soldiers. God Bless, Nathan (18 years ago, 6-Jul-06, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general, FTX)
