I believe on the 2GB RAM version of M65, 256 MB of the video ram is from the card, another 256 MB is stolen from the computer's RAM, for a total of 512 MB video RAM.
Any new drivers for the HASP would be first available here:

The CAMAIX post reads a '.par' file that I assume is created by the CAMAIX GUI post builder.
We are not using this technique. If you search our sample 3/4-Axis post for '#machsim' you will see the necessary postblocks and sections that are necessary to output the .SIM file that is used by the machine sim product. To set up a machine, you need STL files to represent members of the machine, and an XML file that describes how they are connected.
I've been down the 'smash setup sheet into the post' route before.
Setup sheets linearize arcs, do long-handing drilling, and a bunch of other simplifications that would need to be done in a more complicated manner to work in the context of a post, without breaking the post.
Not easy.
I've kicked this around several different ways over the years.
Right now they best I have is that when you 'post', you actually run a setup sheet (.SET) style that outputs nothing, but writes the time estimate per tool or per op, and total to a buffer. The it launches your actual post, which reads the buffer, kicks out the values as comments in your NC file, then deletes the buffer at the end of posting.

That's just MESSED up!!!! [Curse] Wrong in every way, because that opens up the door for having to be charged again for a post for every new release of software.We don't do this, and I totally see your point, however I do see that there may be some wisdom in it.
Since I don't know how my X2 post is going to run in X3, if I tied the working X2 post to X2, it gives me the ability to edit in necessary X3 changes when a customer contacts me. If I don't do that, and there are problems that can't be anticipated... You see my point? At least I get a chance to apply mods during the update to X3. Now charging for that service is another thing entirely.
