New parts added manually, missing geometry


New parts added manually, missing geometry
#1
Hello! I guess it wasn't as simple as I thought.  I wonder where I messed up, but all I did was copy/paste the new parts into the Ldraw\parts\ directory.  Any ideas what happened? The parts show up in the list to use but they're one-dimensional.

In the pic, above the taillights the 2x2 round tile was already on this model, then after the update this is how it looks.  And the other parts I evidently messed up adding :|

Thanks in advance!

Did you also copy the files in the p and parts/s directories as well? If not, this is the cause of your issue.

I'd like to think I would have LOL  But I didn't notice anything folder wise, only the .dat files

I'm assuming you're using Studio. Are you downloading the individual part zips, the recent update zip, or complete zip?

Awesome. I might suggest moving to LDCad from SR3DBuilder since Sergio, the program's developer, passed away some time ago and its no longer kept up to date.

Ik, that's really sad cause SR3D Builder is totally awesome!! It animates worm gear joints in real time, it's so cool.
