Me too to some degree.

I believe the system may be (incorrectly) case sensitive when reading LDraw
files. Perhaps add b and B options. It's also possible this particular aspect is
not yet programmed completely.
Furthermore when generating LDraw files from LDD it will use the first of these
conversions for the inverse so add the latest version of the part first.

I couldn't say if they're all there. I just converted the LDD 1.6 conversion
file to the new format for LDD 2.0.
I believe that the Factory Pick a Brick will show you the part number when you
click on a part although I can't remember exactly where to find it. For the most
part they should be the same as LDraw although there are potential problems for
clear elements which I believe can have different part numbers to the
translucent equivalents.

I've not touched the file since I autogenerated it and fixed a few parts. I'm
hoping to get some extra information from the Factory team to make writing the
conversion a lot easier.

And thank you for these fixes.
