(...) Please just use the next available axlehoXX and npegholX numbers; axleho10.dat (thats one-zero not ell-zero), npeghol8.dat and npeghol9.dat. I want to sort out a better naming convention for these, but I don't want to hold up creativity. Chris (...) (15 years ago, 26-Jan-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

I've got a little little problem with primitives. I'm working on the 61808.dat file (I guess I'll do it with 61811.dat parallel...), and to ease it up and to save disk space the file will be in four quarters. So, to have such things, you inevitably (...) (15 years ago, 26-Jan-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) I don't understand your question. How would you go about doing what? And while you might not know what else the MLCad base path would be, your description of the problem makes it sound like MLCad has to be looking for parts in some other (...)

(...) It sounds like you've ended up with files in the wrong folders, and it doesn't matter how many times you run the Scan command, since MLCad has no idea which files should be where. It just assumes you placed them correctly, and updates its own (...) (17 years ago, 20-Jun-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) It sounds like maybe the LDraw directory you have selected in MLCad isn't your real LDraw directory. Go into MLCad and check where it thinks the LDraw directory is (Settings->General->......->LDraw base path). If that differs from where you (...)
