Posted February 10, 20178 yr So not sure if anyone noticed, a new brick version of LDD came out today. I'm working on finding all the new stuff they added. As far as I can tell, the only new pieces added were the 1x1 brick with 2 corner knobs and the new Technic bucket. Lame. Edited February 10, 20178 yr by ChristopherLee
February 10, 20178 yr There’s only 26604 Brick 1 x 1 with Studs on Two Adjacent Sides / BRICK 1X1, W/ 2 KNOBS, CORNER.
February 10, 20178 yr Certainly worth an update, the curved tiles would have been welcome, too. Thanks, TLG!
February 10, 20178 yr Yeah, weird to get such a small parts update. Hopefully there's another larger one in the pipeline to be released soon!
February 10, 20178 yr Author Indeed. I find it weird how they'd only release one part in this update. There are many more new pieces that need to be added that were released around the same time or before this corner brick. I don't see any bug fixes either. That needs to be taken care of as well.
February 10, 20178 yr Yes, a very very small update. Only three “files” in db.lif were modified/added: 1 info file where version has gone from 2248 to 2248.1, and 2 new files for the meta-infos about 26604 and its geometry. Nothing else. (100% certain: my .wine directory is under git)
February 10, 20178 yr Part 26604 is a part used in set 31058. That set is one of the 4 sets that can be used in the Lego Ideas Testlab contest. It's allowed to enter with digital models too (LDD/LDraw models). So, it's probably a small update because of that contest.
February 10, 20178 yr What a pointless and disappinting update, i was hoping for a more bigger content update.

February 11, 20178 yr I wouldn't call this update pointless, it shows that at least Lego still cares about LDD.
February 11, 20178 yr I do wish there were more bricks. But I do appreciate that they added the corner stud 1x1 brick. I needed that to improve my skeleton dragon moc.
February 12, 20178 yr I just saw it update now, cannot see any new parts yet but at least it's like a reminder that TLG still cares about it.
February 12, 20178 yr Just to confirm. This piece hasn't been added right? http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=28192&C=1#T=C&C=1

February 14, 20178 yr what I thought above seems to be correct, because it's now official. This update (which added only a single new brick) was because of the contest at the Ideas Testlab: Quote The missing brick - is missing no more! As many of you know, element 6175968, which was introduced in the new 31058 Mighty Dinosaurs set, had been missing from the LEGO Digital Designer (LDD) element library. This meant that those who were building digitally with the elements from this set had 4 less elements to be creative with. That's not the case any more however, as we managed to get the team behind LDD to create this update in a hurry...all it took was a lot of ice-cream and a bit of convincing! Next time you open up LDD, the missing element will download automatically and you should be good to go. Have any questions related to LDD? Please refer to the LDD Support page for help. Happy building!

February 16, 20178 yr Small update but 6175968: Brick 1X1, W/ 2 Knobs, Corner is definitely a very useful part! Thanks TLG !

February 17, 20178 yr i think it would be great to have frequent small updates instead of waiting a huge one for years. If this is the case, of course. Perhaps they just needed those pieces for some side project or something.
February 18, 20178 yr Ah so I'm not crazy, that brick with 2 knobs wasn't there before! I was starting thinking Mandela effect here.
March 20, 20177 yr We need a BDD (Bionicle Digital Designer), with all the parts, patterns, and a full color palette.
May 17, 20177 yr This update isn't working for me. Every time I launch LDD, the new part won't show up in my parts library. Can someone please help me?

The new part is only available in “LDD extended” mode. Menu View / New themes / LDD extended The top toolbar will be brown instead of blue. All the parts will be presented as red: You need to change the main color with the color palette under the part palette or paint them with the paint tool (different than in “simple” LDD mode). Also, check what the “Brick Version” is in the About window (F3 or menu Help / About).
