  1. took verify 12 mins(X7) to verify this I hope it looks purdier then this in 11 hours...
  2. Get the requests in immediately. But one is also to ask if there will be any more updates like a patch or an MU3 for X7. We are at the last stage of X7 so hopefully we may see something soon Otherwise you will have a bit of a wait for X8
  3. He doesn't want to, but feels he has no choice.
  4. North America gives them 100 times more, then what (they)(insert country of choice here) steal. Software is the most menial theft of them all because even a 6 yr old can install utorrent and download ANY software they want, in ANY country, including our own.
  5. I don't use legacy paths that often. Doesn't work as well as you think. I have tried to fix that as you state with almost no difference and if you put 'keep tool down' with 100"s it basically joins lines of path(using min distance, not vertical retract) in a non efficient way. when it wants to spike, it spikes and there isn't much of a quick setting fix to alleviate them. Its like when pencil paths that take 10mins to regenerate and they skip areas of fillets that clearly they should not. You can spen 1/2hr regenning a few setting tweaks then BAMMMMMM. a legacy path does it with out tweaking it. (but you cant work while its crunching)............ Time is money
  6. Did all that, it definitely improved a bit. Thanks for your help!
  7. this is not a complex part default settings unchanged accept I movee the speed slider all the way to the right 1st pic no accurate zoom 2nd pic with accurate zoom not much difference, can anyone explain accurate zoom to me? it chopped my block up???
  8. Only been using X7 since MU2.... Ok, where do you set these factors?
  9. I don't have that big of an issue with verify. I don't get gouges that often, so I basically use verify to point out areas that need more attention, or that I missed.
  10. We are on MU2 I would think that X8 will be the savior if they indeed addressed this. Try verifying a complex mold cavity with rest ruf, rest waterlines and pencil paths from 1" Ø ball to 1/32 Ø. I try to time, verify and lunch at the same time. The trick is to program 2 jobs at once so you can keep the ball rolling while waiting for an accurate verify. (remember to save each file often)
  11. Maybe in x8 or 9 they can enhance the paths so they follow the surfaces for joining step overs instead of retracting for intrusions.
  12. If you think you are simple, you are CRAZY!....
  13. I think sticking with view manager is quicker, all defaults and customs are in there. Just select, hit equals button.
  14. Mine only sets the gview and nothing else updates. (and those are only default wcs views) what about custom wcs?
  15. hmmmm, My hass high speed mills run at 200plus all day everyday with great accuracy. my older vf6, bare bones only runs a max 120ipm because of the corner rounding issue.
  16. I use hass also Very common path and surface type here, working on something now. (although I use flowline....) Change the cut angle to 90, doesent look necessary to sweep the arc IMO Cheers Rick
  17. Hi Chris, welcome to the forum. What version of Mastercam are you using?
  18. Thanks Jay. reboot fixed my problem....LOL (1st resort not last from now on....) (It wouldn't find a particular stick font I used on Friday??)
  19. Peon? He's a Green Bay fan and not even a 50 man team of Psychiatrists can help him!
