New parts added manually, missing geometry - von_Erics - 2026-10-31

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?
