What name or part no of this plate 2x2 is? - Zhengrong Zang - 2014-02-06

I am using MLCad to design my train, and I want to use part in attachment, but I can't find it in parts list, does anyone tell me what is this part name of number?

This is a well known Megablock part!!! Wink
Not in LDraw library...

If I want to use it in my MOC, how can I create a dat file easily and simple?

As Philo mentioned, this isn't a LEGO piece.
But it was quite simple to create it.
I attached this part.

PS.: I never thought, that I would do a non LEGO Part here ;-)

Isn't it supposed to have a thickness higher than regular plate? See http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=52688&#entry941542

Thank tou very much! Someday Lego might build this parts for SNOTSmile

By the way, can you tell me the simple way to combine exist data to a new part dat file?

I used the 'simple' LDDP text editor.

Code:
1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3022.dat
for getting the regular 2x2 plate. Then I used the inline function and removed the stud4.dat. Afterwards I added a stud2 group 2x2. And scaled this group at the right position.

Make your train an MPD model and use the part file as one of the sub-models.

I just use it in MLCad without problems, but when I use LPub to create instructions, there is no this parts both in PLI and assembler parts, what do I have to config in LPub?
