Mastercam X2 SP1

[Chris Bell CNC Software]

To All Mastercam Resellers:

 

We have just released Mastercam X2 SP1. Please view the Whatsnew.htm file for detailed information on the bug fixes in the service pack. The "whatsnew.htm" file can be found in the documentation folder of your X2 installation.

 

To download X2 SP1, please click the following link: http://www.mastercam.com/Support/Downloads...X2/Default.aspx. Next, right-click "mastercamx2-servicepack001.exe," select "Save link as" and choose a download location. Once you have downloaded the *.exe file, double-click it and follow the installation instructions. Keep in mind that X2 must be installed on your system since SP1 runs on top of X2 (it is not a standalone installation.)

 

Please note that an "Uninstall" folder will be created within your X2 directory. These are the backed up X2 files which are restored if X2 SP1 is uninstalled. To uninstall X2 SP1, go into Control Panel and double-click the “Add/Remove Programs” applet followed by clicking “Remove” next to “Mastercam X2 Service Pack 1.” It is important to uninstall X2 SP1 before uninstalling X2, otherwise the "mcamx/uninstall" directory will remain and could cause problems if a future release is installed to the same location. The required maintenance date does not change if X2 SP1 is installed.

 

The patch is also available via the Update Service. X2 will not recognize that there is an update available if "mastercamx2-patch001.exe," also available on the Mastercam Support / Downloads section, was not previously installed.

 

If you have any problems or suggestions, please either email [email protected] or post in the eMastercam.com Reseller forum.

 

Thank you.

Yes, I had the same problem. The patch1 was installed, but I had to install it again. I would try that first.

[Michael Sullivan]

Thanks, but still no luck

Hi Michael,

 

Email me ([email protected]) a screenshot of the error message you are getting. Also, what versions of Mastercam do you have on your system? What is your OS? Give me as much information as possible. Thanks in advance.

I was expecting a glitch or two because I had a few hiccups installing X2 originally (which Barefoot CNC and CNC Software promptly helped me fix), but this update installed fine on my 'puter. No problems. Thanks guys!

Im not sure if mine is worked or not. When i ran the .exe file it seemed to install, but when i run a Mastercam session im not sure where to look to see if is installed. It seems like nothing has changed at all.

Did the update remove the documents?

[Zbuilder]

I did the X2 SP1 update thru Mastercam. Before I updated it I wanted to finish a job I was working on. I tried opening Mastercam X2 but got a NO SIM error. I did the update & got the same error. I went to the NetHasp utility to re-read the NetHasp but that didn't work either. Now what?

[Zbuilder]

I found it. Another programmer had it running on another computer & didn't tell me.

[Dan@home]

No (X2 SP1) in the top left corner of the screen for me.. So it's not working?

 

Dan.

[Dan@home]

Never mind; Install designation was wrong... Works fine.
