I created a document for all the checks the PT does:

Note:
It's current as of today (4/28/2026). This may drift a bit as I continue development but I'll try to keep it accurate.

About this Update:
With this update there are now settings for changing the quality of imported step files.
It is now also possible to choose wich axis is 'up' in the model(in LDraw it is -Y, but for most other software it is +Z).
The rest is some general improvements and bug fixes.

Features:

• Choose what the up axis of the model is (+Z,+Y or -Y) #66
  
• Quality Settings for Step files #79
  

• Updated LDraw Colours to include changes up to the 2026-04 parts update
  
• Updated some dependencies
  
• Display traceback on export error and application crash
  

• Only include "0 File" line if converted to onefile/mpd (only used internally for preview currently)
  
• Do not apply most common colour to multicolour subparts #77
  
• Preview now refreshes after deleting outlines
  
• Ignore non color/material resources in 3mf files #82

LDConfig made from the one in the LDraw.org 2026-04 Parts Update.
This is a LDConfig file that includes the "Render Only" colours from Bricklink Studio.
(Without LUMINANCE values, I might change that in future updates)
To use it do the following:

1. Download it: 
     LDConfig_plus_bl_studio_colours.ldr (Size: 69.53 KB / Downloads: 5)
   
2. Move it to your LDraw folder
   
3. Rename "LDConfig.ldr" to LDConfig_default.ldr(or something else)
   
4. Rename "LDConfig_plus_bl_studio_colours.ldr" to "LDConfig.ldr"

New in this release:
This release updates some colours from LDraw Update 2026-04.

Full Changelog: 0.3.1...0.3.2.

The 2026-04 LDraw Parts Update has been released. This update adds 188 new files to the core library, including 99 new parts and 8 new primitives. As of this update, the LDraw.org Parts Library contains 16739 unique shapes or patterned parts.

Thanks are due to all the part authors who created or corrected parts for this release. The small, but dedicated, band of reviewers also play an important role in keeping files moving through the Parts Tracker and deserve just as much credit. This update wouldn't have been possible without their dedication and attention to detail.

You can preview the new parts in 2026-04 here, and download the zip-file update or Windows install package here.

Thank you to all the testers and parts authors who continue giving feedback on the PT software. This project would not be what it is without your help.

Thread for the 2001 Dinosaurs theme.

Dinosaurs was a small theme made of 12 sets (actually just 8), none of which had a large piece count. It used a new system to build larger animals, which was reused in Orient Expedition, Alpha Team and Star Wars to make elephants or dewbacks for example.

The 4 larger sets came in box-shaped canisters similar to early Bionicle sets. The lids could be used as display bases, while the back of the instruction posters could be used as connectable playmats. Each set could be build into 4 different dinosaurs.

The 4 smaller sets came in both boxed and polybag variants, each with a different set number.

I have a project going that involves the baby dinosaurs from the 2001 LEGO Dinosaurs theme, and the only part missing from each of those sets is x158/40384 Dinosaur Head Small/Dino Head 4x2x2. I have tried extracting the assets file myself with the recommended LIFExtractor to no success, and the Digital Bricks .dat download, which I tried before going to all that trouble, only gave the connectivity info. I'm basically at wit's end here, so if anybody with more technical knowledge and the appropriate software and equipment can get the part into LDraw, that would be really appreciated, thanks.

Additionally, the printed parts from the canister sets are not yet available, either, nor are the canister lids, so those would be nice, too.
