I just tried loading some of the .dat models that I got off

\models folder load fine, but some don't.  All files load into LDLite.
What could be going on?

Need more info.

OK, see below.  The odd thing is, all these files load into LDLite -
just not LEdit.

OK, nothing odd there.  Next question -- which models in particular do work
for you and which don't?  (One example of each should be enough.)

Thomas,  open up the offending file and check it for problems.  Make sure there
are no comment lines that don't begin with a '0'.
Make sure all the part lines are entirely on one line each, and not wrapped to
the next line.  Sometimes that screws it up.  If any are wrapped, pull them
back up to the end of the line they are supposed to be on.

And finally, make sure the _total_ number of lines does not exceed 1000.  If it
is over 1000 lines, LEdit will not load it.

An example of a model that works is: 0 Name: 18wheelr.dat 0 Author: Bram Lambrecht One that doesn't is Duane Hess' jeep.dat. I looked at both files and noticed some differences: jeep.dat had empty lines throughout the file - I removed those. (...) (26 years ago, 4-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad)
