WOW! It works! A real-time solution! Thank you very much, this helps me a lot! You're a master programmer!

thanks for your reply! first i build the full model with ldd. then i create step/groups in reverse order of construction removing pieces. this is a simple pyramid. i build the blue floor, then the red floor and finally the yellow one. i create groups in reverse order, selecting bricks then hiding them. this is what i get when i convert pyr.lxf with your utility: 0 FILE pyr_lxf 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -47.999998927116394 -150 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_0 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -23.999999463558197 -170.00000476837158 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_1 1 16 -30.000001192092896 0 -190.00000953674316 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_2 0 FILE pyr_lxf_0 1 14 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 0 FILE pyr_lxf_1 1 4 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 4 30 -24 50.000009536743164 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 0 FILE pyr_lxf_2 1 272 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 272 30 -24 49.99999761581421 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 272 30 -24 90.00000715255737 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat the submodels/groups follow the reverse order, top-down (0-1-2) in this example. as an option, it should be: 0 FILE pyr_lxf 1 16 -30.000001192092896 0 -190.00000953674316 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_2 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -23.999999463558197 -170.00000476837158 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_1 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -47.999998927116394 -150 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_0 (the rest is the same) so now submodels/groups are in down-top order (2-1-0), following the right way of build it. actually, i also add 0 STEP command between every submodel so i can check if everything is ok with ldcad and finally pass the file to lpub and create bi. this is the final result: 0 FILE pyr_lxf 1 16 -30.000001192092896 0 -190.00000953674316 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_2 0 STEP 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -23.999999463558197 -170.00000476837158 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_1 0 STEP 1 16 -30.000001192092896 -47.999998927116394 -150 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 pyr_lxf_0 0 FILE pyr_lxf_0 1 14 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 0 FILE pyr_lxf_1 1 4 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 4 30 -24 50.000009536743164 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 0 FILE pyr_lxf_2 1 272 30 -24 10 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 272 30 -24 49.99999761581421 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat 1 272 30 -24 90.00000715255737 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3001.dat i'm sorry i can't attach an lxf file, the interface allow me only images under 100k. thanks, andrea.

hi, i know i'm necrobumping this thread but i would ask if is still possible to request a modification in this utility (sorry i can't program...) with my old hardware, i'm an happy user of ldd and lpub... is it possibile, as an option, to create submodels in reverse order respect to the groups order? this would be very useful if you build a model in ldd and then create groups dismantling it so, when converted, the submodels list follows the right order of construction. now i do this editing the mpd with a spreadsheet but it would be much easier if this utility will do the job. thanks, andrea.

just reading the topic. i bought a used wedo 9580 lego dacta kit for my kids (6 and 8 years old) for under 100 euro. the hub has two ports, it can use old pf motors (one included), it has a tilt and a motion sensor. it can be programmed with software available free on lego education legacy products with 12 full building and programming activities. it comes with hundred of bricks and uses studded building technique which integrates better with the other legos every kid has. it can also be programmed with mit scratch 2.0 and 3.0 (just an extension to add) which is very user friendly for kids and widely used in primary schools. the only downside is that is powered from an usb cable connect to a pc, so only static/short distance models but no need for batteries (a plus for me). if one can think this is a great limitation, is the same setup that the old 8094 technic control center had, so it's still a lot of fun. this is the better cheap solution for me. 65$ from an american seller now on bricklink.

well, finally a kind person from brasil has sent me the instructions by e-mail... praise to him! i've reuploaded them on http://www.filedropper.com/lego8110civeco190eh30 maybe some more organized user (afol1969? blakbird?) can put them on bricksafe. thanks again to the original author LegoTechnicModel05 for this increbible work!

hi to everyone, i'm new to this forum but not to lego... i'm sorry to revive this thread... does anybody have the instruction for the 8110 iveco truck? all links are dead and it's a pity that in internet era something digital is lost... is there a stabler way to conserve precious files like these? (bricksafe maybe?) thanks in advance, andrea.
