Hi Nils,

 

Go into your Shading Settings. There should be a setting you can change for Chord Tolerance. I usually set mine at .001, but you may need to set it tighter, depending on how big or small your surfaces are. If you are trying to shade something big (I've seen the size of your machine), it could take a long time to render depending on size and complexity.

 

HTH,

The issue is usually in your video card settings in conjunction with your screen settings within the config file. All computer setups are a little different, so you might have to make some settings changes before you get the right mix.

 

Sometimes you might also have to run Mastercam in compatibility mode to a previous OS version as well. This can be done by right clicking on the Mcam icon on the desktop and going to compatibility, then drop down the version that works best and apply.

 

I hope that helps.

I had to reinstalll the video card software so I could go in and make some adjustments, that seems to have cleaned it up. Thanks for the help guys
