LDraw.org 2018-02 Parts Update Now Available

[Lasse Deleuran]

The 2018-02 LDraw Parts Update has been now been released. This adds 1019 new files to the core library, including 540 new parts and 21 new primitives.

Thanks are of course due to all the part authors who created or corrected parts for this release. The reviewers also play an important role in keeping files moving through the Parts Tracker and deserve just as much credit.

You can preview the new parts in 2018-02 here, download the zip-file update or Windows install package here. Alternatively you can use the LDView menu option File | Check for Library Updates... to install the update.

Great work for everyone involved. That was a huge amount of work!

I have run through the files by uploading them to BrickHub in order to find bugs. It was a huge success because I found a UTF-8 error while uploading p/4162d01.dat



The Asian letters did a number on my database, but it should work now. As you can see in the link, it both displays the file content, header and structure correctly.
