(...) I don't know what you're doing wrong, but MLCAD does NOT expect the unofficial parts to in parts.lst. It scans those folders at startup for parts. --Travis (15 years ago, 30-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) It is quite normal that MLCad complaints. As explained here: (URL) package with the unofficial files is updated every 3 minutes and includes also held files. You'll therefore also get parts like this: (URL) is an extraordinary part but has (...) (15 years ago, 1-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I have downloaded the latest MLCad.ini andThe scan order section is completely uncommented: [SCAN_ORDER] 1 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Parts 2 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>P 3 = SHOW <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\Parts 4 = HIDE <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial\P 5 = SHOW (...) (15 years ago, 1-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, if the full unofficial file were somehow incomplete , but if I dump all the unofficial files into the official folder MLCad never complains. Jetro (15 years ago, 1-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) OK, that seems to be ok. I have additional Parts\s and P\48 hided added to this list. Can you send a file where that problem occur? cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 1-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) It's independent of a file. I start with an empty file and click on the Technic section of the parts tree and get a load of warnings about 48\peghole.dat and a number of other files that are missing. At the same time there is a big red X in (...) (15 years ago, 2-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) Willy's explanation is correct. This part in the unofficial library references primitives that don't exist - anywhere (except maybe on the author's own system). So MLcad is unable to fully render it, even with a full copy of the unofficial (...) (15 years ago, 3-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) The theory behind the explanation is sound, but I don't see how is applies in this case. No files are actually missing: I can find all the files MLCad complains about in my LDraw\Unofficial\P\48 folder, and when I dump all the unofficial files (...)
