(...) Same thing here. I was able to mesh Z36 with Z12 and "almost" z36 with z20. All other combinations that obviously works fine in real world failed. Philo (15 years ago, 17-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad.ldd)
 
  Can anyone get these parts to intersect at right angles in LDD?
 
To TLG: I have found that there is a problem with the two gears, which LDD refers to as "double conical wheel", included in LEGO Factory. These are described in the LDD Factory palette as "double conical wheel Z12 1M" and "double conical wheel Z20 (...) (15 years ago, 17-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

  LEGO Factory / PaB Pricing Study
 
You've probably noticed that the LEGO online Pick-A-Brick / LEGO Factory palette has recently been updated with new parts - and new prices. As an avid user of the LEGO Factory system, I was curious just how much the prices had gone up by. I created (...)

  Individual LDD parts?
 
Hi all, I'm not very familiar with the LXF file formats, so maybe I'm just missing something, but how do I get at the actual LXF files that define the vertex transforms for each LDD piece?
