I am not shure, that Lego designer has special tool for it. 1. For creating parts they use some cad software(i almost shure Autodesk), probably with few their own plugins. 2. Designers create models from real bricks 3. For creating instructions they use some their own software, that, i think use meshes from ther parts devvelopment team, but i think, they are not optimised for tool as LDD. So there is no for common users, all their software is only fo internal usage. And adding parts to LDD, creating models for Lego games is hard and long process. 1. You need to optimase shape for it. 2. Reduce amount of polygons(ldd use 12 for circle,lego star wars 8) 3. Add connection data. And i think it if they abandoned LDD, it is dead, because there will be no way to add parts to it without tons of problems.

virtualrepublic, hallo, how is work about materials library going?

i can't found where i can set it. And about scaling. If you set 0.1 scale while importing ldraw to blender, you have to scale you model to 0.04 in Modo. ANd it will much perfect size

here file, i used for pov-ray. It is compilation from all those files for great amount colors, used in lego. It was made by Chris Mitilo and i think it can help

Thanks a lot. Yep, i figured it out after few hours of white renders)))About color i have few thoughts. There are defenition of color for Pov-ray http://guide.lugnet.com/color/ And most of those colors looks pretty real. So probably we can use it.

I understand how to work with material in modo( i think so ). My problem is exporting. I use this script. But when I export it from blender there are pretty much different options. Can you screen what are you choose there. And how od you cleun up model, and delete normals.

can you describe step by step, how to do it? I found how to clean up model, but stuck with this

I wanted to try modo, but i never use it before, can you help me plese? I import model to blender using script. I export model to *.obj. In modo i import model from obg, but it did not appers on stage. Stage is steel empty, What i am doing wrong? ...Very strange, it appers, after, i did nothing))

Can you discrabe the final solution of lego logo on studs, and attach files you use.

I have problems with transparent background: 1. I turned off floor 2. I type +UA But background still white. Here is my file So what i do wrong?

Dog Three Headed 'Fluffy' Rock Monster (Rock Raiders) Windscreen 10 x 14 x 2 2/3 Roll Cage All thise parts are old, bu still not in LDD

Hello. I create patterns for parts in LDraw. And i need pictures of parts with patterns in high resolution. Please if you can take picture of part with pattern and send th to my e-mail. I need most of all 4720,4730,10217. Thank you.

Here is article how to convert LDD brick in to LDraw. It will take a lot of work to clean it, but if you want it just for you model you will get it.
