I got my copy two weeks ago. I read about some great improvements to Mastercam Version 9

I for one like the added solid model feature recognition & solid sheets from surfaces. & to convert closed surfaces to solids & back. Really cool stuff I also heard that Version 9 has made some light improvement to Its very weak Realtime dynamic Pan ????? Sooo0000000000

Could always get a Space Ball ya know.

V9 is awesome. I've been Beta Testing it since September. The new Solid Features are pretty cool. I had some old surface moldels of different projects I've done in the past that I always wanted Solid Modeled. Now they are. The solid Recognition stuff is pretty good too. In pocketing there's some High Speed options that come in very handy such as "Troichadal" and another option I don't use yet that I can't remember the name of. In Job Setup, you can now specify a "Safety Zone" that is spherical, rectangular and another one that I can't remember the name of. This comes in really handy for Horizontal and 5 Axis Machining. The list goes on. I got the OK from Gary at CNC to talk a little about stuff. V9 is not available yet though. No firm date yet but we'll keep you posted.
