I've been tinkering with the "ldraw.xml" file in LEGO Digital Designer (LDD), and have come up with the following list of fixes for good LDD/LDRAW conversion.

Here's some scaffolding I made at the weekend. I'm mainly a spacey kind of guy, but I guess you could use this in a townie/train scenario. (2 URLs) Pete (18 years ago, 26-Jun-06, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !! 
 
  Re: A Few Firehouses

  Re: A Few Firehouses
 
(...) There is some great details in these building. I really like Picture "18". Those details at the top are great. I will have to borrow that design. I also really like how picture "jlcreation" has that cement block look. Very convincing. Keep up (...) (18 years ago, 23-Jun-06, to lugnet.town)
 
  Re: My New Building MOC.
 
(...) I love the top. Great job! I use yellow for hidden parts of my buildings too. I like the mention of PAB in your write up. Glad to see a MOC that was heavily made possible by PAB. Very nice. Jonathan (18 years ago, 23-Jun-06, to lugnet.town)

  Re: A Few Firehouses
 
(...) Thanks! E289/L138 is my favorite. It took a couple of attempts to get it to where it is now. The first version came out really large. It is the most recent firehouse I have built as well, though it has been built for about two years. I tried (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jun-06, to lugnet.town)
 
  Re: A Few Firehouses
 
(...) Incredible work, Jonathan! I'm sitting here drooling over the realism, the amazing attention to detail and the SNOT construction methods - especially on E289/L138's firehouse. Just awesome. -Steven (18 years ago, 12-Jun-06, to lugnet.town)

  Re: School's Out For Summer!

If I used a [LDrawPart 3666:0] as an (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jun-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

That's pretty sweet! Now you've gotta do a flat-fronted school bus! :-) (18 years ago, 6-Jun-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) That's very cool, I've always been a fan of six-wide town vehicles. However, I think that the yellow hood looks a lot nicer than the black... Derek (18 years ago, 6-Jun-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
 
  Re: School's Out For Summer!
 
(...) Excellent. I just love the back of it. Though I don't drive more than a couple times a year, if that, I definitely remember what the back of a slow moving school bus looks like. Great work. Jonathan (18 years ago, 6-Jun-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
