No, Mastecam for Solidworks doesn't have the same tools as the standalone Mastercam. I have used both and I find the standalone Mastercam to be more stable and easier to use. I was of course trained on Mastercam and not Solidworks, so I am sure that is a big part of it for me. Perhaps you could try the stand alone version? I believe they are dropping Mastercam for Solidworks after this year anyway, so it might be a good time to transition into the standalone version.

Are you sure you are doing this tutorial correctly? I have done this tutorial many times and it verifies fine and runs on my Machsim fine (although it is not tied to my post).

I realize this is an old thread, but wanted to mention something, which may help with the availability of moving tools from your 1st Machine Group, to the other machine groups. I will typically create a "Part File Tool Library" ("part_name" or "job number".tooldb). When programming the 1st Machine Group, I'm typically pulling tools from a large master tool library, and creating/editing the tools as needed for that 1st Setup. When finished with that 1st program, I will go into the Tool Manager (for lathe files, need to do this twice, once for mill tools, and again for lathe tools), and I will select "all used tools" from my "part tools", and use the 'down arrow button' on the dialog to copy all of those tools to the 'part_file.tooldb'. There is no "save button", but when you close the Tool Manager, you'll be asked if you want to save the changes to your tool library? (yes) Then, when I load the 2nd machine group, I can simply select this 'part_file.tooldb' as my Tool Library, and I've got all of those previously programmed tools from the 1st Setup, ready to bring into my next Machine Group. If I add new tools during the following setups (maybe I add a couple of tools on the 3rd Setup...), I can use the Tool Manager, to copy my "part tools" (from that setup), into the 'part_file.tooldb' file, and those tools are now available in my other Machine Groups, so long as I pick that library. Note: you can switch up libraries on-the-fly while programming. So, if you've got a tool in 'Mill_Inch.tooldb', you can simply open the Tool Manager, pick that other library, copy the tool into your 'Part Tools' section of the manager (up arrow button), and then switch back to your 'part_file.tooldb'. I typically ignore any warnings about creating duplicate tools. I probably have 200+ "T1's", in my Mill_Inch.tooldb. I just use the filtering functions to select the tools I'm after.

The thing that pisses me off is when operators pull the longest f-ing tool they can and stick it in the longest f-ing holder they can and then blame you for programing it to fast! Or if it screams then they just drop the feed percent and not the spindle in addition! I do my best to give setup info when necessary. But sometimes its just a simple one-off piece of tooling that they should be able to use there head to pick the right tools!
