Over time I've gotten a number of requests from people to release the DAT files with which I generate the part images for Mega Construx here on The Bloks Forum.
For various reasons I'm not prepared to do that, but it occurred to me that I could offer something of a compromise and release files for other brands.
To this end, in the near future I will post LDraw-compatible DAT files for Built-to-Rule and Tyco Superblocks, and possibly a few other brands as well. I haven't done anything with these brands for several years, but I've written somewhere around 200 parts that might prove useful to someone.
I've largely abandoned this segment of the ongoing clone.dat project, so I need to assert the caveat that these parts will be as-is, but ultimately they're simple text files, so at the very least they shouldn't cause any harm.

Hello elchecuss, and welcome to The Bloks Forum. Thank you also for your interest and your question.
There are indeed unofficial .dat files for Mega Construx elements. They're not endorsed by Mega nor any other entity, but they're fairly accurate representations. I've personally created over 1,900 of them, with another dozen or so created by others.
I've made the decision not to distribute the Mega .dat files at this time nor in the foreseeable future.
I will, however, allow the distribution of .dat files that I've created to represent Tyco and BTR elements. These are offered with no warranty and with no follow-up support; I've abandoned those brands as part of the larger project, and I'm not interested in developing them further.
If you're interested in those files, let me know, and I'll see if I can post them here.
Again, welcome!

Thank you very much, nice to be on the forum
And regarding the Mega Construx bricks, nothing happens, I would have liked to have them but I understand, if by chance one day they are published, I would be delighted
Regarding the Tyco and BTR brands, I would be interested. Yes, I have blocks from many brands (Sluban, Cobi, QMAN, etc... Oxford and others but very few bricks) so any brick will work for me hahaha.
And thanks for the welcome!
