Only real-world elements in the library?

[Manfred Schaefer]

Hello,

Are only Lego elements that actually exist allowed in the LDraw library?
I’m asking because some of the Nexo Knights shields (22385) are listed in the library as official elements, even though they don’t exist in real life. These shields were only available in the app.

Best regards,
Manfred

In almost all cases, yes. I think we discussed allowing Nexo shields to have a "complete set"

light.dat doesn't represent a real-world part either, but it is a special case.

Curious about that. Could you post some examples?

I am also heavily unware of how those blindbags (or the app) worked. Anyone who could explain what is off with the Library ones?
