Hi mig, do you use the Moldplus SA Catia converter with MDB. For testing rename the Verisurf folder..mcamxchooksverisurf Start Mastercam again - You will see the Icons will be back Stefan

Hi David, try this first: * Browse to "C:WINDOWSsystem32". * Copy the three files MCBitmap.ocx, MCInt.ocx and MCReal.ocx. * Paste them into "C:Program FilesCommon FilesMastercam". Be sure to backup the existing versions of these files before overwriting them. Version 9 should now start correctly. Greetings from Germany

Scott / MayDay please check system configuration! If there is a data path, switch "stock shape" to "File" delete the path and switch back to "Box" Save configuration and restart MC

Hi guys, please could anybody test the file below on OS WINDOWS XP 64and Mastercam X2 MR2? Try to regenerate the engrave operation.

We sent this file allready to CNC-Software but QC can´t duplicate it. Thanks in advance. Stefan InterCAM Deutschland GmbH

Hi Plyd /Thad, into the upcoming release X2-MR2 you are able to pick "ALL SOLIDS" with the "QM-SOLIDS Function" before you start the surface function. Works well! Greetings from Germany

Pete, use a bigger shading tolerance. If the part is large it´s good enough to see the details. Stefan

Hi all, we found the problem! All the customers which had the problem use the same antivirus software! It´s called "ANTIVIR" from AVIRA If the software is closed the messege doesn´t come up! So, it´s not a Mastercam problem! Stefan

Hi Thad, Sorry I forgot the "2" ERROR OPENEING ..mcamx2commontemptmpedg2.tmp Stefan

Hi guys, does anybody know this error message during regeneration a milling operation? ERROR OPENEING ..mcamxcommontemptmpedg2.tmp I heard it frequently here in Germany the last weeks! Thanks in advance.. Stefan
