Erik,
I couldn't get it to work. Here is detailed explaination of my experience
using the Nov. 21 build. I am running Mac OS X 10.2.2.
When I load the carbon version, it says "Error: Could not open LDRAW
folder...." I click on "Select LDRAW folder" and it opens a new document
"Untitled" and the parts list. The parts list window can't find PARTS.LST,
which makes perfect sense since I haven't told it where the LDRAW folder is
yet. I select "File" --> "Choose LDRAW Folder". I pick the folder that I
just downloaded from your site (not my own). I get the "Error: Could not
open LDRAW folder...." error again. In the parts list window, there is a
little message that says "File not found: PARTS.LST" with a button "Search"
next to it. If I click on "Search", BrickDraw3D dies.
Then I mess around with the preference file to see if there is something
wrong with it. I can't seem to find anything fishy. I take the space out
of my hard disk name just in case that is it. It does have a wierd ending
character:
LDRAW=HardDisk:Users:james:Documents:LDRAW:
fi
No messing around seems to fix it. I notice in the updatePartsList.pl file
included with your LDRAW folder that you have hardcoded the ldraw dir as:
Acroyear:Development:Lego.CAD:LDRAW
So I change my hard disk name and create the path to match this. It still
doesn't work.
Any ideas?
James

| Sorry about the preferences file gotcha. The workaround is to copy your preferences file from Classic. Choose the LDRAW folder in Classic. Copy the file from /System Folder/Preferences/BrickDraw3D Preferences to ~/Library/Preferences/ cp "/System (...) (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
