I get an LDView error when displaing this part:

error loading submodel X581S02.dat

and the same with X581S01.dat

The part looks completly fine in editors (like SR 3D Builder)
Is that an LDView or a LDraw (part) issue?

If this is a LDView error only, this post can be moved to the LDraw Editors and Viewers subforum..

Hey,

Here is the new LPC 1.3.1.
I do not recommend to continue using the previous version 1.3.0.

Please uninstall older versions of this software before installing a new version.

New features:

• You can round the coordinates of the current selection from 0 to 3 digits.
  
• Select connected/touching with same colour now using the colour of the triangle which was last selected.
  

• The vertex data group box won't refresh when selecting another single vertex with the selection box.
  
• CTRL do not remove the vertices from the selection when triangle mode is activated.
  
• CTRL do not remove the triangles from the selection when vertices mode is activated.
  
• I include Rectifier 1.4 but it should be 1.7
  
• The initial Config.cfg contains a malformed path to the language-.csv.
  
• The title from the "Save as..." dialog contains a "&"
  
• One i18n bug in the advanced option menu (The "Colours:" Tab)
  

The 2012-01 LDraw Parts Update has been now been released.

This update includes 1148 files in the core library, including 601 new parts. Two major features of this release are the inclusion of a large selection of 12V train parts and Mindstorms NXT components, all of which had been waiting on the Parts Tracker for far too long. Many of the primitives have also been upgraded to the current expectations for (counter-clockwise) polygon winding.

This is another big step in reducing the backlog on the Parts Tracker and brings the number of files to its lowest level since April 2005. Thanks are due to the small community of part authors who created or corrected parts for this release and to those who have reviewed files in order to make this release happen.

I am really pleased with the increased momentum on the Parts Tracker this year and I am hopeful that we can continue to work at this pace to reduce the backlog as well as bringing newly issued parts into the Official Library. I'd like to recognise the pragmatism that has been exhibited in allowing functional (but not necessarily perfect) parts to be released with a "Needs Work" tag.

You can preview the new parts in 2012-01 and download the update by going to the updates page.

The 128 certified files currently on the LDraw Parts Tracker were held back from this update in keeping with our normal practice of not releasing new primitives or subparts until they are needed for an official part file.

What happens to LDraw.org website? Yesterday it was pretty sluggish all day long (CET), it worked fine early this morning (CET again, about 1 hour before this message) and now it seems completely down.

Howdy,

I'm in the process of creating a highly-anticipated instructional guide of one of my recent custom creations -- however, I searched every possible part in the LDraw library for my software, and couldn't find one particular piece which is extremely vital to making the 3-D instructions: a 2x2 brick with a socket for a ball joint:

http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cg.../62712.dat

http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/62712

After searching this site for information on it, I found and downloaded the DAT file from the first link, but I wasn't sure where to install it in the parts library folder (I mean, which particular folder). All I need is this piece for finishing my 3-D instructional guide; could one of the admins please review and certify this -- or at least, please instruct me how to install an unofficial DAT file of it to my library? Either or will be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Just was assembling the '86 bulldozer and then recognized that this bucket is missing:

Hope somebody can do it in the next time.....

And it really nice too see how many parts get soon official...

Hi,

At the moment, there is only one style cloth like 522.DAT



This part is very useful for minifigure.

But when I assembled 10211 Grand Emporium, I found that some variation of this part was needed like below.



I hope someone might have a plan for this part.

64951.DAT is a variation of 4424.DAT with axle hole.
But it is not released yet as even unofficial LDraw part.

Please, any able man do something for this part.
