  9. I have been using X4mu2 with my gt8600 card and the graphics suck. If I open x3 and x4 with the same file X3 graphics are nice! So I thought a new video card would be a nice upgrade, bough a fx 580 and its no better. Windows Vista 64 all eye candy off. Is there a default setting in X4mu2 that might be doing this. I have changed every thing I can find I don't want to wait a year for new update.
  10. Anybody have time with Fryer 5axes machine. pros or cons
  11. Several mounths back some people were getting the Nextengine 2D scanner and I was wondering how that worked out. I am also looking at them. I need to also use there RapidWorks software. Thanks, Guys
  12. Hey Mark, I tried it but if I pick lines it will try and try but never open, and picking mesh nothing happens. What I did before was pick a file and then verify file,then picked that STL and it opened as stock. I'm I not doing something with your way?
  13. THANKS Gcode that's what I needed is to just see it.
  14. I am not having any luck opening a file with this ext. Is this an STL file? When I start to open MC shows it as an STL but it won't open is 37,000 KB Thanks

  16. does any one use this fx580 quadro card with X4 MU2 Price is about 160.00 I know this is entry level but before X4 I use a gforce 660 @ 49.00 and with my stuff it was ok. The next step would be FX1800. Thanks again

  18. I just started playing with X4 and found that if I back plot the path become perment.I tried ram saver,Reg display list, close and open. video settings,nothing help. Then I found that any file I open(X3 files)that have tool paths are displayed as if I back plotted and save as geo! Tested new X4 file same thing BUT don't have to back plot cause when it gen tp it sticks. At this point X4 is not usable*** Any body elses acting like this? Sending file to CNC Monday.
