Never work a minute for the rest of your life!

... because this program will distract you to no end. Get ready for this:

It's AutoCAD, but with Lego bricks! It's flat out nuts. I'm still exploring it, but man is this going to take up my time. Thousands of pieces and the classic and modern colours, it's got it all, even the parrots!

Check out LeoCAD here.

Very nice program, i used to play with lego a lot when i was little.

It would be very interesting to see what some of you guys can make!

Sweet!!! I used AutoCAD last semester and loved it. I also loved Legos. Now I can play with both at the same time!!

Ah, it's fun and it's free. :tup:

Thanks for the linky!

And now the question arises...can someone find a practical use for this application to the real world we live in? (LEGO employees in the development branch don't count)

Linky, I remember the days when I used to make models using MLCad combined with the LDraw part libraries. Afterwards I'd fire up POV-Ray and render them, good times.

Hardcore Lego enthusiasts could use it to try out new designs before tearing their old award winning works apart. 👍

I had the official lego program, but they barely gave you any bricks to work with, which really makes ya mad when your almost complete, and don't have the bricks you want to finish it off with.
Thanks for the link, your getting rep points for this one.

Thats awesome but so very hard to use. It takes forever to find the piece you want and I've never been good with using those 3D programs mostly because it takes forever to change to the view you want to view the model correctly. I'd much rather use the real thing .

Also I tried using the POV thing to render it but that didnt work

 

[Magic069]

Uh oh. Is there anyway to explain or make this into a regular item I use at work. (I'm a architectural drafter, and use AutoCAD everyday)

Makes me want to go in the basement and dig out my old lego boxes and see what I can create. Hmm, Imade this truck a few months ago out of pure boredom, I think I should try and remake it in this program. This really makes me want to get out the old legos and complete the truck with a trailer and all.

 

[VIPFREAK]

I used to make my own stuff up too just out of my head. :tup: Very creative stuff.

I've been far too busy to see my family, nevermind build fake Lego wonders. Here's what I did that first night I found it:

(it's a race)

I bet 300 bucks on the horse.

the trike isn't going to move without a driver

I bet 300 bucks on the horse.

Hence why my votes are for the horse.
