LDD: Is it possible to apply custom decorations?

[blhc11]

Hello, I am a Lego fan much like all of you and I decided to download the LDD Universe mode.

Today, while I was creating a little moc, I found out about the "decal" function that let's you customize the pieces(I found out about this when i saw that the lego heads and torsos where all blank and tried to solve it), but thoose decals aren't that great and now I have a simple question: Can you make a decal to apply virtually to your LDD creations on the Universe mode?

I would like to thank everyone for all the feedback that I hope to get from the other Lego fans around the world.

Also, since I didn't want this to be a one question topic, feel free to post your questions about LDD in your reply, and if you are a long time user of LDD and think you can answer thoose questions please do it.

Cheers .

Hi

Welcome to the LDD forums where all the LDD nerds hang-out

I think we allready have a topic for these sort of thing (the Tips & Tricks one), but let's here what the other LDD gurus here at the forum think.

For the time, I'm going to change the name of this post, and we'll see. Hope that's OK

Regarding your question - No, it's not possible to add custom graphics. It would sure be a cool feature, but I'm guessing it be difficult for Lego to handle. If people start using bad content on the the bricks in an Official Lego-tool (even thought digital), there could be problems.

Indeed, I had forgoten about that possibility, plus the Moc I'm building is just a map so i know the pieces I'll need and I already have the figures that would be included in it(note that I'm not a big fan of Pick a Brick for it's elevated prices and all) and I'll probably buy the pieces separatly, if I ever need to modify a minifigure I can do it in reality, thus I have no problem.

Now I would like to tell you how I apreciated the help and that I thank you for the modifications you made on the original post.

Cheers.

I don't see why they can't do it like in LU, choosing from mouths and eyes, but expanded so that there can be better combinations for torsos and legs. I know some people will say that some combinations might be able to make innapropriate things, but no matter how hard you try you can't stop someone from putting blank yellow legs on Forest men.

I think what blhc11 meant was if you could import custom made graphics/decorations and apply inside LDD. And when I was thinking inapproriate I was thinking violence, other companies logos, bad language, bad symbols etc. Basically stuff that TLG does not want on their bricks.

Superkalle is right, I was thinking of adding face, body and maybe brick decals to a little set I'm making with some trademarked characters and brands, thus it might originate some property legal issues, plus the scene depicted some violence that might have been agravated by the logos/characters.
