  12. Hi Grimes, Thanks for sending me the file. After testing the file in the Home Learning Edition software and in my copy of Mastercam using my dealer sim, it appears to be a glitch for the 2018 HLE software. I tested it in the beta of Mastercam 2019 and it verified correctly there. The Mastercam 2019 HLE should be released shortly so you could try verifying your file there as well after it's been released.

  17. Hello Grimes, Can you attach your file? I'll open it on my system and take a look
  18. Hi blu3eyes, Are you asking if you were to create 1 half of something (e.g., the left half of a smiley face) and then mirror it, then later go back and change the left half (e.g., change the eye from a circle to an oval), have the right half update as well? If so, I don't believe this functionality exists.
  19. Assuming the drawing is correct, you'll usually get this error if you're selecting too many/too few/the wrong entities. My guess is you're told to change the selection method to window and then drag it around the wireframe? If so, make sure the window is just large enough to select all of the entities you're required to but small enough that you're not including entities that you're not supposed to.
  20. Hello Abousalah, The primary difference is that the certificate offered here is more of a certificate of completion. The certification from MasturcamU is offered from CNC Software and has stricter testing requirements. Associate level certification in Mastercam can be acquired through MastercamU: https://www.mastercam.com/en-us/Support/Training/Mastercam-U In order to get a Professional level certification you'll need a test administered by someone like your local reseller. More details about the certification process can be found here: http://www.mastercamu.com/files/docs/Cert_User_Guide.pdf The Mastercam reseller who covers Morocco is: Reseller: YP Technologie Reseller URL: http://www.mastercam-france.com Contact: Yves Pitou Phone: 00 33 2 99 83 90 47 Email: [email protected]
  21. X4 is quite old, at this point it's 7 versions out of date and soon to be 8. If learning a newer version isn't an option you might consider our project workbook for X4: Some of the projects (particularly the Concept Car) will give you an idea on how to create something roughly mouse shaped. If you need to learn toolpathing in X4, Mill Level 1 Training Tutorial and Mill Level 3 Training Tutorial would be a good place to start. You can get access to all of our X4 eBooks (an internet connection is required to access anything) by purchasing our Sitewide Subscription. https://www.emastercam.com/store/product/1184-emastercam-sitewide-subscription/ You can buy 1 month for $39.99USD, run through all the material you want, and then choose not to renew your subscription at the end. Finally, please note that there is no free demo software for Mastercam X4 as it expired back in 2011 or something so you'll need to have access to a purchased license of X4 to do anything.
  22. Hi MetalSlinger5, Hit the Windows key, scroll through the apps list until you find the Mastercam 2018 DEMO HLE folder, select "Advanced Configuration," choose "Graphics Support" and then disable hardware acceleration. This should be fine for practice/educational parts in the demo software but it's not recommended for trying to run complex industrial parts. You could also try updating the latest drivers for your graphics card or rolling them back to an earlier version. The instructions in this article might also help: https://www.inhousesolutions.com/2017/03/running-command-line-commands/
