Ok, typically, I try not to think of myself as stupid, but there's obviously something I'm missing here. When I open .dat files here using Ldlite, one of two things almost invariably happens: 1) It comes up blank. 2) The model draws, but the message (...) (26 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

About missing files: did you download and install the original LDraw files? I think just under half of the parts are in the three files: ldraw.exe (it's a compressed archive, not the ldraw.exe rendering program) lp97-13.exe lp97-14.exe There are (...) (26 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yup, I've installed all three of those files, from the JJM site. As a further assistance to try and figure this out, I opened your latest file (lugnet.cad.dat:82) and it the following parts came up 'not found': 3048, 754, 3049, 32017, 4286, (...) (26 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Did downloading the new updates help? BTW, the one blank posting was a one-piece model. The one part was originally distributed in the main LDraw package. Judging from the file's date on my system, it may have been renumbered in one of L-CAD's (...) (26 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

(...) June, (...) I haven't had a chance to DL them yet, but I'm sure that will fix the problem. I just didn't realize there was still that much activity with Ldraw, and new updates on a regular basis. Like I said - Too stupid to live. :) (1) 1: (...) (26 years ago, 8-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

If I were you, James, I would seriously reconsider a *love* offering of the *hated* Timmy minifig, lest you anger the Larry and incur His wrath (1) (1) Best to offer a prize such as a *silver brick* and offer up a Timmy as a sacrifice (2) (2) See (...)
