I had some free time and I managed to finish some models, so here are another 4 sets:

21002 Empire State Building / Architecture


MPD File

Error: Part 4162pb20 was replaced with part 4162.


10016 Tanker / Trains


MPD File

Error: Part 6636px2 with part 6636.


6754 Family Home / Creator


L3B File (SR 3D Builder)

Error: Part 60800 is missing.


5893 Offroad Power / Creator


L3B File (SR 3D Builder)

Error: The string for the winch is missing.
This model is best to be opened in SR 3D Builder, because MLCad may give you a few errors regarding missing parts.

Excellent contribution Sergiu

I think you had a whole day free.
Great models!

I've been working on "fixing" the LDD models for 10183 Hobby train and discovered that at least one of the models actually uses illegal techniques that can't now be done in LDD. As part of the effort to preserve these instructions I've had a go at doing it in MLCad.

10183 Hobby Train Model 4 - Theme: Trains


MPD File

In order to do this I had to work from the rather poor quality LDD generated HTML that Holodoc made available, combined with what still worked when the models were loaded in LDD4. As a result the build instruction order is 'a bit weird'. Having to learn MLCad as I went didn't help much either.

Still, I reckon it's better than nothing and I'm sure MLCad experts can use it to do far better if need be!

7150 TIE Fighter & Y-wing

Errors:
>Rebel Dutch Vandar helmet replaced with available alternative
>System TIE Windscreen replaced with custom piece.

.ldr file
The two starfighters and their pilots are grouped separately under steps.

What is the general consensus on 'custom' LDraw parts? Because .ldr programs allow bricks to collide and go 'inside' one another, I was able to use a 6-wide dome in place of the TIE Windscreen and then flesh it out with other bricks to add connection points.

Cool sets there.

I'm "sort of new" to mlcad. I've used it in the past a really long time ago. I've made a star wars set.

4500-1 - Rebel Snowspeeder


Some things i like to mention
- I'm not sure about the colors cause i dont use real blocks
- The minifigs arent there also there is a small dish normally in the set which i did not make
- There is one wrong brick SLOPE with at-at pattern or something like that
- The wings arent tilted (i'm still rediscovering mlcad so i might do that soon)
- !!!Rope + grapling are not in the model!!!

I think thats it.

Welcome to the ldd forum .
It's a good model you made
I'm going to index it.

EDIT: where can we download it? It's only a "legal" post if people can download your model.
If you don't now where to upload it you can use BRICKSHELF for example (the most of us use that).

[Redostrike]

I'm not sure if i need to edit my prev post but it's a whole new model.

Could not resist it and made another one tonight:

7732 Air Mail (City) < Click here for file.



Some pointers:
- Stickers/patterns are not there!
- Minifig and cart are not there

I also noticed that i had alot of bricks missing so i used a few updates from ldraw. I lost track of what bricks i added on my own and which one i did not so sorry for that guys.

Hi Redostrike.
You posted a big (and extremely slow to load) BMP image.
If you want to post a lossless image, you should use PNG, otherwise jpeg or gif are good formats for the net.

Sorry about that still need to figure out MLCAD more i just forgot to put it on jpeg.

It should be fixed now.

Made another model this time a bit bigger:

10001 - Metro Liner



Some Pointers:
- It big!!! My pc slows down a bit so keep that in mind!!
- No patterns (doors / time panel for train?)
- No minifigs (i just don't like making them sorry guys)
- Placing of train on tracks is not great (it's bad even) but it's really hard to put it right.
- All "models" are in groups with a description name.

PS: I have all parts (Locomotive, Middle Cart, End Cart, Station and track) in a different file. If anyone wants these just ask and i will provide (there on my brickshelf but most likley not public yet).

Cheers.

They look perfect

[starwarsfanatic]

Surely it would be much easier to recreate sets if there were more minifig parts available, particularly heads. There are so many missing most sets are impossible to make!

If you are using SR3DBuilder to create your model, remember to remove the "hide patterned brick" on toolbox to show all patterned parts especially for minifig torso and heads. There are really a lot of !!!!

But there are also many sets that don't use any minifig parts.
But not everyone likes them.

The 2x2 tile misses the "cake" decoration.
Most parts were found in the last release of the "unofficial parts" database.

This one cannot really be made in LDD!
