The Verisurf free tools are utilities and functions to help make your job easer.
These tools have been used by thousands for over a decade.
Some of these tools Mastercam has now added so they are not as useful. like save 3D PDF file.
I think Hole Axis or Auto Hole Axis is the most used. works with curves and surfaces.
There are a lot of other good and useful tools for CAD when needed.
Here is a couple of old videos created over 10 years ago.

Verisurf Auto Hole Axis
Here is the Verisurf Tools pdf

BTW, In recent Mastercam release you can Save as 3D PDF.
In Mastercam 2024 you can Open 3D PDF files, 2D and 3D files.
Variable Offset Curve or Spline
Here is a simple way to create a variable offset curve in Mastercam.
Simply use the Free Tools for Mastercam from Verisurf.
https://www.verisurf.com/verisurf-tools-for-mastercam
Chain a curve or spline and set the number of points and edge offsets of the start and end, you will get a new variable offset curve to use for your design.
Verisurf within Mastercam is your best bet if you are needing a solid from a Mesh.
Toolpaths on a Mesh works great in Mastercam 2023, if you need surface smoother just refine the mesh with smaller triangles.

That normally means Mastercam was started, running, a process is still running, Cancel, try Closing Mastercam, and make sure no processes are running, maybe log out and back in and reinstall.

I know about the issue with Mastercam 2021 Update 2 , CNC made SDK changes that caused some problems with Verisurf and Moldplus uses Verisurf MBD tools. Both Verisurf and Moldplus had to make special build for a new install for 2021 Update 2 that fixes this.
Did you try the new Moldplus install for 2021 Update 2?
I can help you fix the problem if your still having a problem.
