It works just fine with opening files on my hard drive, but it will fail to open the file when LUGNET passes it 'ldraw.cgi.' Is this an MLCad problem? (I (...)

  MLCAD 3 is the fire.
 
I just downloaded MLCad after a long hiatus and I love the new version. I'm particularly having fun with the Minifig Generator.
