(...) In LDView, I do a few things. First, I check to see if the file I just loaded is a part. In order to be a part, it has to satisfy two criteria. First, it can't be the child of a part. Second, it has to either be in the LDraw Parts directory, (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

It's the tyre seen in the Jack Stone Police Cruiser ((URL) I found the wheel in the unofficial parts and just need the tyre to go with it. It doesn't even (...)
