Help required using LDCad

[Martin Stockton]

Either you download the whole unofficial.zip from time to time or do this:

If you need certain parts that are only unofficially available (AND you use teh default directories) you can use LDView to update your unofficial files with an ease.

Create a .ldr file with the lines that contain your missing parts:

1 16 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 [missing.dat]

Open the file with LDView, and let LDView do the update. If this is not switch on, go to preferences -> Updates and tick "Automatically check for missing parts"
THis will download these files into the unofficial folder.

Once you start LDCad now, these files are available (given the unofficial path is admiinistered in LDCad)

Thanks for your help but I need it to be really simple! Can you please tell me how to download the whole unofficial.zip. This sounds my best solution but I don't know where to start!!  

Many thanks again Martin. Its even taken me an age to work out using this forum!!!!!!!!!!
