I have a LDraw\Unofficial folder with all the unofficial parts and MLCad.ini
with the lines corresponding to the location of those unofficial parts
uncommented. I open MLCad, scan for new parts and write a new parts list. Now,
when I open certain folders in the parts tree, MLCad complains parts are
missing. These are all 48/ and s/ parts and the parts are present in the
unofficial folders. Even if I inform MLCad of the existence and location of
these folder (by including some lines in MLCad.ini) it keeps complaining the
parts cannot be found.

It appears the only way of making sure MLCad finds them is by copying them into
the official parts folders. This doesn't seem to make much sense, because in
that case why should I inform MLCad of the location of the unofficial files in
the first place.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

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.
