Thread for 2025 promotional sets

Hello everyone, I'm new here and recently started using BrickLink Studio. I could use a little help.

I'm trying to install the new part 6801 from 2025 https://library.ldraw.org/parts/44556 (Unofficial).

I downloaded the ZIP file and extracted it. Then I placed the .dat file in the following folders:

(Studio 2.0\ldraw\parts) and also tried (Studio 2.0\ldraw\UnOfficial\parts)

However, when I open Studio, the part doesn't show up in the parts library.
Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong or miss step in the process?

Thanks in advance!

Am I allowed to make a Box2-10p primitive or do I have to use the existing Box2-11 with an additional edge?

hello while i had said this in one of my 57579 uploads i would say it again.
does anyone own either 57579pb01 or 57579pb02 and is up for a photo shoot
i have come across images but they are either
good printing but not usable for (sorry for how weird i worded it) or is a good ref but print is misaligned
want top front and side pics
bye

The rules suggest to post an intro, so...

I've been enjoying building with LEGO since the late 70's, with a particular love of Classic Space.

LDraw is a delightfully nerdy application of all that is great about LEGO and the Internet.  I'm looking forward to participating!

Hi again,

Another (old) error brought out on the Studio forums: part

71613 Electric Light & Sound Brick  4 x 12 x  2 Laser Drill  (formerly and for BL 30346c01) 

is too high by 1 plate.
As the description says it’s supposed to be 2 bricks high… but the 3D model is 1 plate more.

User provided a pic (Google drive, link in the post) of the real part.

hola

Hi all,

57792 Cylinder  6 x  3 x 10 Half with Taper and Four Pin Holes

needs a small fix on its bottom: it collides with studs (external, flat side; not with the special notches).  The problem has been noticed when trying to build set 7990-1 in Studio.

I don’t know how the real part looks exactly but there’s a picture on Rebrickable that would indicate the shape is correct (that is, there’s no notches for the studs), so the problem would be the radius of the base or the thickness of the wall there.

Anyway, thanks to anyone who would tackle that 

I'm seeking your wise advice on proper file paths (relative or absolute) for the various LDraw tools, and why they don't seem to behave the same between themselves.

In my ldraw folder I have these sub-directories, among others:
p/
parts/
Unofficial/
User/

Unofficial (for uncertified tracker parts) and User (for my own parts) each have their own p/ and parts/ subfolders, so they are both valid ldraw libraries. User also has a number of subfolders for parts authoring projects.

So I'm working on a part in one of those project folders in the User library, and it uses a custom primitive that is also in the User library (obviously in User/p/). To get this primitive to appear in LDPE, I have to give it this path: User\p\48\prim.dat. Some notes:

• User is set at the "parts authoring" folder in LDPE, and Unofficial is set as the "Unofficial" folder (even though they're both unofficial libraries).
  
• LDPE creates its own "ldparteditor-temp-project" folder, which I'm not using (never found the reason to). It's located outside my ldraw folder.
  
• I've used relative paths in LDPE before, but for some reason ..\p\48\prim.dat doesn't work.
