SR 3D Builder - A new software for creating LEGO models with PC

[xSergio74]

Hola (is the only word in spanish I know)

I'm new to this forum and hope to have not posted this message in a wrong place.

I'm a programmer and a Lego fan.
I have created a free software to allow building Lego models using your PC.
The interface is similar to Lego Digital Designer, but functions are by far more advanced.
It supports the Ldraw standard and can load such models too.

The software is free, don't contains any AD Awares and can be downloaded from

Have a look. It worth !! ;)

Please report problems, suggestion and... compliments  ;D

Bye

Sergio

Hola,

Soy nuevo en este foro y deseo no haber puesto este mensaje en un lugar equivocado (this is the right place  ;) )

Soy programador y aficionado de LEGO.
He creado un software libre que permite construir modelos LEGO usando tu PC.
La interfaz es similar a la del LEGO DIGITAL DESIGNER, pero las funciones son, de lejos, más avanzadas.
Soporta el standard Ldraw y puede cargar sus archivos, también.

El software es gratuito, no contiene ningun tipo de ADWare y puede ser descargado de:

Echad un vistazo. Lo vale !!  ;)

Adiós

Sergio

Many thanks Sergio. I will take a look ASAP

Hi Sergio

First of all thank you for the effort you are making. The software looks really interesting.

As for the webpage, maybe you can make it a little easier to locate the steps for installation (it looks a little disorganised right now)  or put them on a seperate page similar to the way it is done at LDRAW.

With regard to the program ... well maybe the first thing is related to the explanations you give. I don't like it when programs suggest doing things in locations I normally don't use without informing me hat is going o happen. I'm referring to the 'deploy' folder.
Secondly, after following all the steps to the letter, at the end of the installation I get a little screen informing me "Inifile NOT found"  ???

No creo que este sea el mejor sitio para este anuncio, pero tengo la misma dud cada vez que hay algo relacionado con un programa. ¿Necesitamos uns sección específica para esto? ¿Cual sería el lugar mas conveniente sino?

[Legotron]

Bueno creo que está bien aquí, no deja de ser una creación propia relacionada con LEGO  ;)

Very interesting software!  Will be tested :D :D

Hola Jetro:

También me sale el mismo error. Cuando escribí al autor para informarlo del bug me dijo que siguiera las instrucciones de su web... cosa que ya le explicaba que habia hecho  ::)
Lo has podido probar? Porque es prometedor.

[Jetro]

No paso del error  >:(

[xSergio74]

Running the program from the created shortcut (<start>.<program>.<sergio.reano>) instead of from c:\deploy folder should work.

Anyway, it only contains initialization default. Modifying and saving preferences will create your own one.

If it don't, let me know.

[Jetro]

Running from the shortcut results in the same error and crash.
How do I create a new ini default?

Running from the shortcut results in the same error and crash.
How do I create a new ini default?

this is the contents of a valid ini file
------------------------------
[Lego 3D Cad]
VertexOptimization=200
ViewMode=0
UseHiResPrim=False
BackColor=12632256
GridColor=11053224
------------------------------
copy and paste into Notepad and save as Lego3D.ini in the folder where SR3DBuilder.exe is located

Anyway it's strange error: I cannot reproduce even in a new (clear) installation.

hope this solve
