![]() ![]() They had been building Neo Classic Space models and wanted a place to keep track of their LL Registration Numbers. It was originally envisioned as a place for a small group of builders to hang out. Willie's article on authoring LDraw parts appears in the current issue of BrickJournal.Ī year ago today Neo Classic Space was born - not the name, and certainly not the building style, both of which had been around for several years - but the website. So whether you're picking up LDraw tools for the first time or a seasoned user, please spare a thought for designers like Willie who provide the parts us spacers cherish. Although they might not be considered Neo Classic Space, they are still a worthy tribute to the Classic Space sets. Willy has produced some great models using the parts, and provided instructions for them. Here's a quick virtual build I did of the moonbase from the 928 Galaxy Explorer, featuring several of Willie's parts, most notably his 5000 polygon crater plate, the most complex LDraw part ever produced: Willy has designed a number of very useful Classic Space space parts, including many bearing the classic space logo. If you've used these programs for Classic Space building, you will almost certainly have used parts designed by Willy Tschager without even realising it. It can even be integrated with PovRay for rendering photo-realistic images. LEGO's official Lego Digital Designer is an excellent tool, but does suffer from being limited to current and recent parts, so most virtual builders eventually turn to the LDraw family of programs which includes MLCad and LeoCad, LDView for visualisation and LPub for producing instructions. It can be very useful for prototyping as well as creating instructions for completed models, or just building large models without having to buy all the bricks first. If these programs are not installed, you will receive a message that a ZIP password is required.Many of us have dabbled in virtual building. lxf files must have LDD installed and the *. That's wy the model name from now on refers to an io-file (yellow background) instead of the usual lxf-file (grey background)Īll files can be downloaded, but note that the *. However on LEGO has announced its acquisition of BrickLink included the Studio software, so I finally decided also to change to Studio 2.0. Therefore it get's harder and harder to build with every new launched model with new parts.Īn alternate for LDD is Studio from Bricklink, but I couldn't get used by it's interface. Since LEGO has abandonned LDD a few years ago, LDD isn't updated anymore, the last one is a piece-update in jan 2018. ![]() If you enjoy this site or have comments, let me know. ![]() I hope You will have as much fun with all that building as I did. If so, let me know and I will delete that model from this site. In the latter case I made the LDD files from photo's or building-instructions of all different type, except LXF-files.Īlthough all the images used by me to create the LDD file, are free available on the net (nowhere is made use of payed instructions), is it possible that the original designer of the model has objection to this publication. The rest of the models published here is designed by other people (when I know their name I wil mention it at the specific model). Regular LEGO® -models are always provided with the Original LEGO® -Set number. A few models have been created by myself and can freely be used. Most of the models are regular LEGO® -models where the building-instructions are free to obtain. They are also made by me of the LXF file with Blueprint software. In case of non-standard LEGO® models, sometimes a few building instructions can be downloaded. MyBricks4U is a place where you can find all my models I build with LEGO® Digital Designer (LDD). ![]()
