My second  thought was that perhaps for some reason the entire

Yes, especially with my truck :(  That reminds me, could you cancel those
three posts of the 18 wheeler, none of which made it to the news message
completely?  I think they're number 151-153

The missing shocksm.DAT file appears to be the result of an error in
the original posted content.  That is, x22-sprb.dat & x22-sprf.dat refer

to shocksm.DAT but should instead (I presume) refer to shock1x2.DAT.

Oops!  I changed the name at the last minute and forgot to change it in
the refering files...

(Fixing this in the original MPD file didn't seem to help LDLITE
render the model properly.)

OK.  At least it wasn't a dumb mistake of mine.

Anyway, one last thing I noticed -- if I fire up LDLITE fresh and ask
it to render x22.dat, it shows the whole model.  But if I ask it first • to
display the MPD file, and then the x22.dat file in the same LDLITE • session
(without exiting LDLITE and restarting it, that is), then x22.dat does

the parts were

wierd...  Gyug, do you have any ideas on why this is happening?

On a hunch, I removed one of the comment lines in the middle of the
x22-body.dat portion of the MPD file,

I tried that too, but it didn't help much.  However, I got extremely
varied times in the status bar "Finished..." message for the various
times I tried to run the MPD through.

(...) I don't know what's wrong, but here's some more data: I, too, only saw the bottom half when I clicked on it from the web pages for lugnet.cad.dat -- my first thought was that the DAT content filter in the ldraw.cgi script on the server was (...) (25 years ago, 31-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad)
