Changes: With the release of 0.8.43 you are able to... - ...check an option during setup which associates *.dat files to LDPartEditor. - ...benefit from an enhanced surface creation by Lines2Pattern. - ...see the poles correctly on !TEXMAP SPHERICAL.

The following critical issues are fixed: 1. Ytruder still generated triangles sometimes when it should generate quads. 2. Switching the manipulator via keyboard (translate, rotate, scale) "cleared" the current transformation. 3. Selecting a color for the font in Txt2dat did not work. Letters were always rendered in black. 4. Fixed a rare NullPointerException which occured while closing the application.

Make sure that you choose the right architecture for your OS and JVM (64bit). Does my JVM support 64-bit? 1. Download the zip-Archive 2. Extract the archive content to the location of your choice - On windows, double-click "LDPartEditor.exe" to start LDPE. - On linux/mac, you have to execute the shell script "run.sh" to start LDPE.

Alternatively, you can download a setup file to install LDPE on Windows. When you install/extract LDPE on Windows you will find your LDPE configuration files under drive\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\LDPartEditor. It is not recommended to use the "update.bat" script when you installed LDPE via the setup file. Manually install the new version instead.


Please note that this software is in the beta stage. Although, this version was carefully tested and developed, there are already known issues for this release. There is a potential risk of data loss.

You can search for updates if you do the following steps: - On windows, double-click "update.bat" to search for updates. - On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "update.sh".

LDPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LDPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements: - 64-bit Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8 - OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card - Operating System (64-bit): Windows [7 or newer], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6] - CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz) - RAM: 4GB - Video-Memory: 1 GB - Free Disk Space: 100 MB

Recommended Requirements: - Operating System (64bit): Windows 7,8,10, Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=14.4], Mac OS X [>=10.6] - OpenGL 3.3 compatible Graphics Card - CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more) - RAM: >4 GB - Video-Memory: >1 GB - Free Disk Space: 512 MB - For a faster start, the LDraw™ library should be installed on a SSD.

PS: I am still busy with the creation of the manual, so you "have to experiment" with my (complex) software product until you've got the manual.
