Upon seeing the differences in the minifig arms (975.dat & 976.dat) and
comparing the old files with their updates, it is obvious that changes have
been made.
However, for those of us who are more technical than their own good, please
give us a rough (if not exact) idea what the angle is for the lower section of
the arm. This should lead to the proper angle & XYZ-coordinates for the minifig
hand -
977.dat. If anyone can help me out, please tell me the figures I need to know
(to the nearest thousandth).

Looking at part 979.DAT, Minifig (Complete Figure Shortcut), it appears
the hands are turned at a 45-degree angle.

Christopher! have you backed up your data?
