Hi Kris,

Bricksmith automatically converts '\' to the Mac path separator. You never need to manually edit Official or Unofficial part files to make them work in Bricksmith.

There is a help page in Bricksmith which explains how to correctly install Unofficial parts. It's a simple procedure. Please follow the directions under Help > Getting More Parts, and look under "The Easy Way". Here's the relevant exerpt:

  1. Download the complete archive of parts in the tracker.
  2. Rename the downloaded folder "ldrawunf" to "Unofficial"
  3. Move the folder to LDraw/Unofficial

If you encounter any errors after using this method, it means you didn't put the Unofficial folder in the right place.

Thanks,
Allen
