    I think he was talking about the image specifically but you are correct, Imageshack is only for image file types.

    What I do when I start a new model is this: I insert about 6 1x1 plates and then as I come to a color I need, I color 1 of the plates. That way, when I need to switch colors, I just use the color picker on 1 of the plates instead of searching through the palette. Sometimes, I pick right off the model but usually I'll use my squares. Saves me a little time. Btw Suerkalle, glad I could save you a bit of time and thanks for the work and data. Little tidbits like this are certainly interesting.

    um, does anyone know who won the 2010 Technic Challenge? Off topic but seriously, sometimes I think signatures should be limited to a certain size. We can't quote images because of real estate issues but signature images take up just as much if not more. I think it's great that people are passionate about what they like/have done/etc. but at time, it's a little over the top.

    7181 - UCS TIE Interceptor - Theme: Star Wars This set is already in the index by yellost: clicky The instructions call for a piece for the wings that is no longer in LDD. There seems to be a "kinda" replacement for it but it's 1 stud thinner and doesn't have the notch. The replacement sort of works, as you can see in yellost's post but I didn't like the look of it. I modified the wings, making them longer and more appealing to me. I know it isn't "official", which is why it won't be indexed, although technically yellost's post is modified too. I like the way this turned out. Download the .LXF I may need to change my gray colors around, but I don't trust the inventory just yet due to a question I had a couple posts up...

    hmmm, I might try my hand at this. Thanks for the heads up!

    I have a question about the colors of set 7181 TIE Interceptor. The colors from the Bricklink inventory clicky show Black, Dark Gray and Light Gray. When you go to page 10 of the instructions from TLG clicky, the difference between the dark gray and the black is clear in step #2, but the inventory shows those two pieces as both being black. Advice?

    Total drool over here. That looks more like something rendered in a 3d prog like c4d or max to me...although how wicked would it be for LDD 5.0? Get too many sweet features in there though and TLG might want to start charging for the software...which I'd probably buy anyway.

    10175 - UCS Darth Vader's TIE Advanced - Theme: Star Wars This set is already in the index: clicky But I wanted to build it so things were connected. I had to modify some of the instructions to get it to work but I am very pleased with the outcome. Download the LXF

    7672 - Rogue Shadow - Theme: Star Wars This model already shows up in the index, (http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=41226&st=555&p=791908entry791908) however, that one isn't complete/correct and it uses parts that aren't in the directions. This is not an update to that set, it's a new build from scratch. .LXF Issues: - 32072 Technic Angular Wheel won't fit properly between the two 58846 Circle 90D 10x10, WRY 18D (make up the engine). It makes it so those two pieces don't connect properly with the middle portion of the element. (Look at the indexed Rogue Shadow and check out the engine head-on to see what I mean.) It's been left off to the side. - 52028 Arrow 8M W/Soft Upper P. doesn't seat all the way into 57029 Release House 6x2x2 when 32075 Release Housing, Catch is attached. It's been left off to the side. Also, this piece is supposed to be two-toned but can't be colored that way. The head is supposed to be black. - The minifigs are limited to what's available in LDD as far as prints and pieces go. Edit I added the 6090 Frogman Visor for battle-damaged Darth Vader to the lxf file. The screenshot doesn't show it though.

    I have this same error, no matter what .lxf file I tried to open. OS is Windows XP SP3 Running Office 2010

    The Power Miners sets I did above have been updated.
  14. messiah1
    *With a mighty thanks to Aanchir, these sets have been updated using the correct colors. Thanks for the help mate. 8188 Power Miners Fire Blaster A pretty easy build overall. .LXF --- 8189 Power Miners Magma Mech The only thing that I couldn't get to work was the gear, which is off to the side. It fit fine on the shaft but the drill wouldn't mesh up with it. It looked wonky so I removed the gear and seated the drill all the way on. .LXF

    Oh man! I love the new brick outlines and advanced shader mode. Looks so much better. I found myself opening all my models last night just to check them out with the new look. SWEET!

    I totally agree with merman. He kept it as close as possible, while still maintaining the look of the model. He posted his lxf file and even his solution. We all know LDD has limitations. This isn't like leaving off a brick or two because they wouldn't fit right, he'd have had to leave the entire wings off. That would have looked ridiculous and would have been a pointless build.
  17. messiah1
    Oh crap! You're right. I'll update asap. Thanks for pointing it out Calabar. *Been updated.

    Updated to LDD 4 6208 - B-wing Fighter - Theme: Star Wars A pretty easy build overall. The only thing that I couldn't get to work was the 90 degree angle of the hinges for the maintenance stand where the catwalk folds down and meets with each other. They would not go to the full 90. I've left the yellow part of the hinges out (off to the side) of the model. Download the .LXF

    I know the ARC Starfighter and the 10186 General Grievous have been doubled. What else?

    Try not to take it too personal man. If you want, I can stop loading the things I build in LDD, that way you can have all the glory. You build pretty fast. I only get to play in LDD late at night for about an hour or so. Took me at least a week to do Grievous.

    10186 - UCS General Grievous - Theme: Star Wars I wanted to try this as soon as I saw the instructions on LEGO.com. It was trying at times but I'm happy to say it's finished. There are a couple things left out or changed because LDD won't allow them: - Any of the hoses and associtated fitting (because we can't bend them) - The front portion of his neck piece (looks like another case of an illegal LDD build) This I had to slightly modify. - The stickers for the base and anywhere on The General (not available) I had quite a bit of difficulty getting certain angles (light sabers and arms mostly) to align and had to create some custom stands for pivoting and such. I'd get certain elements built and then couldn't get them onto the model so I'd have to re-piece them together one at a time where they needed to go. Also, I don't like how the handles of the light sabers look in his claws. .LXF File

    Total sweetness right there. I want.

    The link for the .lxf file is a jpeg...
  24. messiah1
    Fantastic, thanks!

    Does anyone have a link to the instructions for this? The links on the LEGO site say the file is corrupted. I'd really appreciate someone providing this. I've searched the intertubes and all the links go to the LEGO site. I'm hoping someone got them before it got corrupted.
