Hi.

Is there a way to convert SR3D builder bricks to LDD bricks?

All the best

Hi,

I don't know much about LDD.

What I can say is that SR3D Builder uses near the same MLCad file format so if you can import MLCad/lDraw files, than you should also be able to import .l3b files.

Note that since SR3DB has a by far much more complete part database, you will miss all LDD undefined parts.

If you intend import SR3DB=lDraw part database into LDD, then I don't know how to help you.

Please also consider the option to use SR3DB to create your models, you wont be afraid !!

If you mean converting the bricks as such between LDD and SR3D, this is not possible. The format that is used to visualize and manage the bricks in LDD is different to the one in SR3D (and LDraw). If you on the other hand mean converting models that are built in LDD to SR3D and vice versa, this is possible, but the conversion results are unfortunately not so good. So for all practicale purposes, there is no way to exchange either bricks or models between the two formats

Okay, thanks anyway

You can however use the import/export function of Ldd using a file from this site:

It uses Ldraw.xml, still only in beta stages though

The import/export works, but in my experience it doesn't produce so reliable results - many bricks are lost in the conversion.

But for simpler models, it could work.
