Bram's Sphere Generator - Import result in LDD

[Jason C. Hand]

Ok, here is an interesting question, all: Has anyone ever used Bram's Sphere Generator? I had been attempting to import the spheres I input on the site into LDD, and every time it comes up empty.

Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to update the .XML??

I've noticed that whenever I open the generated files in Bricksmith, they don't actually use LDraw pieces; they seem to use some basic and separate shapes arranged to look like LEGO pieces. My guess is that LDD doesn't recognize any LDraw pieces in the file, so it doesn't add any LDD pieces in their places. I would download an LDraw editor to view the generated model and recreate the model manually in LDD.

Okay, thanks again.
