  1. Bob, but I am not promoting anything here : I am just asking what would ppl choose for LEGO ideas project if they were me, that is all - I am not asking for voting on LEGO Ideas...strange if this is considered as promoting.
  2. Hey guys I would like to ask you helping me to choose one of my MOCs becoming my next/new LEGO Ideas project by expressing your thoughts (vote in a poll): please, see the poll and make your choice - thanx a lot! (fingers crossed hoping it does not break any EB forum rules once again ) So to show you what those MOCs actually look like, here are small thumbnails for each + direct link to their respective topic here on Eurobricks as all of them were posted here first (click on the MOC title for that). 691305 Decontamination Base 691522 Geckoentaur Traxformer 681502 Caterpillar Spacecraft 681501 Kozmik Tower Station 691512 Space Hydroasis Delta 691502 Intercom Repair Vehicle 691514 Scootoover Refill Dock 691513 Drone Transporter 691510 Wheeled Photon Plow 691509 Ionosphere Absorber
  3. Hi They are still there, just click on that SHOW button(s) after every section and it opens up for you its content (it's made like that so it does not occupy whole page by default).
  4. Ah, so it's Blender then...that was one of two things I was afraid it could be (the second one being MODO). The thing is: I was into Blender like 2+ years ago with ldr2blender addon having quantum of problems (tho it looks really realistic using Cycle renderer): except things like too much difficult of making materials and stuff my main two big problems were not good ldr importing quality (and plus I had to convert my LDD file beforehand which conversion was really bad mainly when it comes to flexible parts as we all know but OK, I could somehow live without it) but mainly those extremely annoying light "fireflies" everywhere - basically I was not able making render without one and I really tried out every possible trick there was at that time. So in the end after like one year of trying I finally give up and return back to POV-Ray + once @msx80 made his fantastic BlueRender I completely switched to it and developed some mayor "advancements" to it myself since being very happy with it tho it still lack some options (like transparent background in render or completely transparent objects without casting shadows etc.). So my question is: does Blender grew up so much since then so that it now do not produce those light fireflies in render (mainly in dark renders as I love dark ones)??? If so can you point me to the right (ehm, yours) solution? Second question: does Mecabricks directly export to Blender file format so one can easily open/import it into Blender?
  5. Wot??? Are you serious? If that is a render then I have no words - how did you managed to achieve that 100% real bricks feeling?
  6. No - it is most definitely not possible as LDD is using some TLG-modified file format not editable by anyone else (as far as I can say). So until TLG decides to release its internal file format for free for everyone else out there (which is one of the possibilities many of us were suggesting in case TLG abandon LDD so the community can live and develop LDD further without any TLG additional input)...
  7. object { shader plocha type plane p 0 %LOWESTPOINT% 0 n 0 1 0 } Change that SHADER to whatever you want - that will change the color (+ surface abilities depending on shader type used)
  8. I really like that mecha-loader concept + that transport vehicle in the first image - very nice 80's feeling: PERFECT!
  9. Well, if this was done completely inside Mecabricks then I can say it is looking very "real-life-like"...ehm, at least to me.
  10. Sorry to inform you but there is no support for real transparency in SunFlow therefor no: you won't get transparent/no bg from BlueRender.
  11. Yea, I agree and I think that's about it...
  12. WOW! This one really got me - it surely has that original LEGO M-Tron feel to it, I can imagine this as their actual M-tron set (pity it wasn't - I 'd buy it immediately!) + I especially like that you also included some modularity (detachable front rocket)

    LEGO...

    very nice scene - I really like color scheme and especially how nicely they got together: "old" gray (or it looks like that) + trans (dark?) blue, bravo! + I also like that you used one of my favorite bricks (that trans tall glasses)

    Tube-man

    haha, not bad - interesting concept...I am wondering: did you just stick those small dishes onto some of those flex "rods"?
  15. Yes, I agree ...but, ehm, just to avoid any misunderstanding: these are not TLG models - those are my MOCs - thanx anyway.
  16. Sure, of course + now your model looks quite realistic And here are my two cents as well...
  17. No, it is not possible normally (cos even if you lower refl value to "0" in shiny shader it is still reflective) - you'd have to write your own janino shader mixing shiny and diffuse shaders together with specified percentage value (kind of what I did to my special materials). OR: I am suggesting you to play more with number and types of lights used in your scene + also their distance from the model and size matters a lot!
  18. Nice build, tho if I could suggest: if you are using completely black background maybe you could replace that black color in the model for something else so they are easier to see?
  19. yea, those sounds...I know them being lucky enough having all Space sets...and I agree: those sounds are like rare Beatles song(s) to my ears...ehm, sometime
  20. THERE IS NEW VERSION UPDATE (v20151207) at the top of this topic in my first initial message...
  21. Looks nice
  22. Hey guys I do not know if it is only me but all notifications from Eurobricks about new comments to a topic I am following or new personal messages have stopped suddenly - what is wrong? I double checked if for some reason my settings are reset or if I do not make Eurobricks signed accidentally as a spam in my email but nothing like that. Any thought/help would be great... P.S.: I also noticed it does not appear as notification here at the top of the EB site as well so I guess it is something with the EB site itself, right?
  23. Thank you very much.
  24. I would be second that for sure...agree fully with something like that (if anything of that kind ever happen at all in the first place, of course )!
  25. Thanx + yes, it can, of course (I thought it is visible on some of those images).
