#DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BRICKSMITH AND BRICKSTOCK ZIP FILE#
Unzip the downloaded zip file into an appropriate directory e.g. I have no affiliation with the author of this software but if this solution is useful to you, consider making a donation to the author via their PayPal link. If someone is using BrickStock on a Mac, perhaps they would like to post an equivalent solution using tools appropriate to a Mac. Note that this solution outlined works for Windows. The solution is straight forward and, if you follow the instructions below, can be used by anyone. It achieves this by patching the BrickStock database file to rename the BrickArms related colours appropriately. The solution renames the BrickArms colours so that their prefix begins with "zA" rather than "BA", hence moving them to the end of the list of colours. Moreover, the solution, although a little bit hacky, avoids the need to alter the BrickStock code (the most recent version of which is unavailable anyway). While not solving the problem (which ideally would exclude the BrickArms colours altogether), the solution does at least restore the appearance of the BrickStock colour list close to how it previously was. I have come up with a solution to move the BrickArms colours to the end of the list. Moreover, when in the colour list, typing the letter B takes you to the start of the Brick Arms colours rather than the value "Black", which used to be the first "B" colour. This degrades the usability of BrickStock since you now see a large list of Brick Arms related colours starting with B which you have to scroll passed to see the BrickLink/LEGO colour names. All of BrickArms colours have been added to the BrickLink list of colours with a prefix of "BA". Namely, the appearance of the Brick Arms colours within BrickStock. Earlier this year, the addition of BrickArms parts to the BrickLink catalog has had a side effect on BrickStock.
