Russell844 Posted March 8, 2021 Does anyone have any advice on getting this to run on a brand new iMac? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ludo Posted August 9, 2021 @Russell844, I have no idea how to run this on a iMac, perhaps there is some info on the DOCUMENTATION page tab on the https://bluebrick.lswproject.com/ site? What I can tell to everyone in that version 1.9.1 is out. the changes are: Version 1.9.1 This version is a critical fix for downloading language package and part library package from within BlueBrick. BlueBrick was using the non encrypted protocole (http://), and I've recently updated the bluebrick website to use the secure protocole (https://). BUGFIX (Alban): Update the application to download the part package in https instead of http, since the website has moved to https. BUGFIX (Alban): Fix the height calculation of the preview image in the Export Image Windows. BUGFIX (Alban): Fix the drawing of the watermark when the scrollbar is displayed. Best regards.

Winczlav Posted June 26, 2023 (edited) Hi everybody, Any idea how I can fix this (TrixBrix parts) ? Edited June 26, 2023 by Winczlav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alban Nanty Posted June 26, 2023 (edited) Hello Winczlav, You probably need insert a quarter straight track (in the Track tab). Or maybe you should replace a straight track in the horizontal bottom line by a quarter straight + half straight (to make 3/4 track). Yours.

zephyr1934 Posted June 27, 2023 You'll need some combination of unusual length track segments, what trixbrix calls "RC1", "RC2" (1 stud and 1.6 stud long I think) and 4 or 8 stud long tracks. I think you essentially need to replicate the geometry of the middle switch in this picture (source here)... or it might be the switch on the right (without the RC2) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luxibricks Posted June 28, 2023 @Russell844 I'have Parallesls Desktop installed on my Mac with Windows 11. This works fine, and not only for Bluebrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Knight Posted June 29, 2023 It seems a bit excessive to install a virtual machine just to run BlueBrick: You only need a .NET-runtime (aka "Microsoft-Java") installed; which is also documented on the bluebrick homepage: On MacOS or Linux install mono, on Windows install the Microsoft .NET-Framework.

Hi Alban, is it possible to have some updates related to the part tracker for the category "City" and Trains"? Is there a place on the web where somebody has posted some update with the more recent sets? I guess that an update with the modular buildings after the Detective Office would be very appreciated by a lot of peopleusers. Thanks for your work Gabriele Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alban Nanty Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Hi Gabriele, Adding part is really time consuming. I got some merge request on github for some new parts, but last time I accepted one merge request, most of the parts were not correctly named, and lost of fields were missing in the xml file. So that took me quite a lot of work to fix the merge request. If someone is interested to be moderator on the brick library, please contact me, and I will be happy to give you the access to update the library. Just in case: you can try to check if there's new parts available through the "File > Download Additional Part..." menu. Yours.
