BrickTracks: R104 Switch Kickstarter is LIVE!
supertruper1988 replied to coaster's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Supported since day one for the 4 or each tier! Coaster and team are good people and he is good for the product once it goes into production. He has demonstrated that with his products already available that have been slow to be launched but once they are available, the order fulfillment happens seamlessly. I am really looking forward to these and the R56 curves! -
Love the wheel and tire combos! Such new (to me) parts usages.

I work on a Mac exclusively. Unfortunately there are some challenges but not impossible. I have used BluePrint extensively and its a grat program but it does not handle physically large models very well. (larger than 32x32 baseplate) I have since moved over to Stud.io and LPub3D. My first recommendation is that you break up your model, a lot. My general rule is to do no more than 10 parts per step and sub models are never more than 2 levels deep.

Hey @coaster any chance the switch kit will include the 1-5/8 stud straight needed to make a yard ladder with these? -
LEGO 60197 CITY ● Passenger Train [Speed Build Review]
supertruper1988 replied to Brick Ministry's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Since you have two of the new trains can you please test a single controller connecting to both trains? Maybe see this thread to help us understand better. https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/162288-powered-up-a-tear-down/ -
Multiple Scales
supertruper1988 replied to knotian's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I think that mixing scales of that wide of a shift will look a little funny but only if its things that people commonly see together. So all the vehicles should be approximately the same scale but machinery that is only seen in photos and not by many people upclose wont look out of scale unless you are displaying this at an ore refinery. -
Are those brick separators? cool looking build for sure!!!

Making 30184 Pirate Rollercoaster more condensed?
supertruper1988 replied to Fenghuang0296's topic in LEGO Town
Thats the beauty of LEGO Just build it into your city. if you take away all the Pirate stuff you only need some supports and the filler is up to your imagination. -

Im in for 2 of each! The price is great! -
Love it! I have been wanting to build a 6335 inspired truck for my speed champs cars!
-
So does that mean we can have both outputs run 2 motors in one train and synced? Or make the current motors available in the boost/WeDo range work continuously so they can drive a train?

I feel that for trains there will never be support from LEGO to have things that make our LEGO trains more than toys. I dont support cutting or gluing or painting pieces but some use of things like S-Brick controls, BrickTracks curves, 4Dbrix switch components, Trained Bricks driving rods and valve gear, etc are inevitable if you want to have LEGO models of real trains and good track components to run them on. If you must stick to LEGO then you are going to have to make compromises from a scale perspective.

Custom Parts in Stud.io?
supertruper1988 replied to supertruper1988's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
Ok I have found my own answer. On MacOS go in Applications/Stud.io/LDraw Create a folder called "Custom Parts" then a sub folder called "Parts" Add the parts here. They will show up as "Custom Parts" in the Palette selection area. Haha no problem! -
Custom Parts in Stud.io?
supertruper1988 replied to supertruper1988's topic in Digital LEGO: Tools, Techniques, and Projects
I have asked the same question in the first thread you linked and received no answer. Just wanted to see if anyone here has any more information on how to do it. -
There is a market for instructions and parts lists. The more popular one is rebrickable.

This is the issue for sure. -
Unauthorized selling of instructions for MOCs
supertruper1988 replied to Sven J's topic in LEGO Train Tech
I see stuff from @Murdoch17 and @sed6 on this channel as well. There is also a lot of older LDD Gallery items on here. Also @imvanya is in here. Oh and @ryantaggart's wonderful Modular Contruction site is on there. We should report these videos and if it is your MOC then submit a DCMA take down notice. -
Alban has kindly published how to make parts for this software. You can generate your own images using many of the tools out there and make some parts for your layout.

Is there a rumored release date on these? I cant seem to find the info.
