In a month or two I will doing my yearly rebuild of the server, when this happens:

I will be turning off all non-https routes for all ldraw.org domains. 

I realize this will most likely break some older programs and I apologize for that. Properly maintaining non-SSL access year to year is an administrative burden and adds unneeded complexity to the web server setup. The realities of the modern web dictate the SSL is the expected default.

Hi,

I was reading through this article on this useful blog and noticed a few useful technic subparts, the first 2 are from part 34380

One is an eyelet with a 1L (approx) axle, the other in some sort of click-y part.

The third part looks like it accepts a bionicle ball joint and it was used in the Lego constraction heads:



I was wondering if these could be made in LDRAW, I will buy the parts if needed because this is just too exciting!
there doesn't seem to be any other photos of the sub-parts on the web also

Regards, Snipe

Since Bluestacks is misbehaving on my computer and I'm knee deep in PT upgrades, request the following parts:

1202 Dome 6 x 3 x 3 Half
https://rebrickable.com/parts/1202/dome-6-x-3-x-3-half/

77073 Animal Body Part, Horse Head (Toy Horse)

Hello,
I have noticed that Willy Tschager is using the new meta-comannd PREVIEW and uploading parts to the parts tracker. Is there a recommendation for the individual parts or specifications as to what the viewing angle should be. For example, the minifigure head 3626, frontal or rather from the top right or left?

Greetings

Manfred

The 2025-02 LDraw Parts Update has been released. This update adds 596 new files to the core library, including 437 new parts and 11 new primitives.

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 2025-02 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.

I haven't seen these posted anywhere and the 3D models appear to be on the app so I was wondering if anyone has extracted them before. I would try it myself but my PC lags horribly when I try to use Bluestacks.
