Default Lego theme

I found something I've been searching for years: A lego CAD.

http://www.ldraw.org

It has almost every existing pieces! It's like a lego wet-dream.

I plan to create a lego shipset, but I tought I should share my discovery with everybody first.

Awesome. There has been talk before about this. It would be really nice to get some shipsets.

There already is a lego shipset (although more wouldn't hurt).

I remember seeing a lego shipset a while ago, it was pretty good!

If you can't find it in the archives let me know and I will repost it for you.

Thanks for the lego cad link!

Yes thank you. Please post a link if it's not available in the shrapnel mod forum. I remember seeing a few example pics, but I must have missed that someone completed a full shipset.

Would be very cool however to have multiple lego races. No need to have only one right?

Edit: What I mean is, I looked in the race forum here on Shrapnel and don't see them.

With multiple races, you could play LEGO WARS.

We could also create lego planets, lego warp points, lego sectors and of course lego facilities.

Lego planets would be pretty amusing

I'll try to bring in the Lego SS tomorrow and upload it
