Version 1.6 of jLug, the virtual Lego simulator has been released. This just adds a part finder. Enter a keyword and press the Find button to find a particular part. Both the .DAT filename and part description are searched.

Version 1.5 of jLug, the virtual Lego simulator has been released. With this release we now have improved collision detection and bendy tubes. The tubes are based on NURB curves and, therefore can be bent to your will by moving around the control points.

NOTE: From v1.2, jLug requires Java3D 1.3 or later.

Version 1.4 of jLug, the virtual Lego simulator has been released. This fixes a few bugs, including rotating parts anti-clockwise. It also includes non-working collision detection. Hopefully this will be working in the next version - depends on the resolution of some Java3D problems.

NOTE: From v1.2, jLug requires Java3D 1.3 or later.

Version 1.3 of jLug, the virtual Lego simulator has been released. This fixes a couple of problems, and adds a facility to download and install part files from within jLug.

The installation and user guide pages have been updated to include details of the new part file downloading.

NOTE: From v1.2, jLug requires Java3D 1.3 or later.

The first, rather basic, draft of the jLug user guide is now available from the project home page.

The source for jLug has now been imported into CVS. Browse at your leisure.
