  1. For what it is worth, if there is a video or a tutorial somewhere, I'd be glad to go there instead of pester you all. lol

    We sell a couple of books that deal with importing geometry created in other CAD packages like SolidWorks.

     

    http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/1037-mastercam-x9-cad-import-mill-essentials-toolpaths-tutorial-print-pdf-combo/

    http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/1038-mastercam-x9-cad-import-mill-advanced-toolpaths-tutorial-print-pdf-combo/

     

    They might be able to help you get started. Each package has a link to a free sample PDF that shows what's all covered in the book and how we approach the material. Might be worth taking a look at. The new Print + PDF Combos we offer will have a printed book shipped to you while you are given immediate access to a full colour PDF version of the book you can read right away and even after the printed book arrives you can keep the PDF as a digital backup or use it for portable access without needing to carry the book everywhere.

     

    But like others have said, training with your reseller is a good option.

  2.   Hello,

     

    We are actually having a sale on our Mastercam X8 and X9 Multiaxis training tutorials this month! The bundles can be found here:

     

    X9: http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/1012-mastercam-x9-bundle-3-multiaxis/

    X8: http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/1020-mastercam-x8-bundle-3-multiaxis/

     

    These bundles are our Multiaxis Essentials and Multiaxis Advanced training tutorial books. The Essentials book comes with a video training DVD and you are given the Mastercam home learning edition software. The 2 books are normally $90 for essentials and $80 for advanced, but right now the bundle is selling for $102 for both.

  3. In x7 that setting is under configuration<screen

     

    In x9 there isn't the hardware acceleration options

    In X9, it's in the advanced configuration. In Windows 10 you can search "advanced configuration". You can also click "start", then go to "all programs" or "all apps" depending on which OS you're running, select the Mastercam X9 folder, then advanced configuration. It'll be under "graphics support"

  4. I have X9 installed on my copy of Windows 10 Pro 64bit here, works fine.

     

    Will X9HLE run on Windows 10?

    A friend is trying to install it on a Win 10 machine and it won't let him install it

     

    Could it be a permission issue? Not running as admin, insufficient hard drive space?

  5. Hello Tower,

     

    If you're new to Mastercam, we offer a variety of training books you might benefit from. If you're running X6 (rather than V6) you can find our X6 training tutorials here: http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/category/80-mastercam-x6/

     

    Our Lathe Training Tutorial is $40 and can be found here: http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/269-mastercam-x6-lathe-training-tutorial/

    This book takes you step-by-step in creating geometry and lathe toolpaths. The book comes with a video training DVD with one of our trainers walking you through the lessons in the book so you can see how we do things if you get stuck in the book. The book will also come with the Mastercam Home Learning Edition/Demo software. It'll be X8 since the X6 version expired last year but it sounds like you have a seat of the software to play around with anyways.

     

    We also have a few lathe projects intended for high school students but they might be appropriate for helping you get used to lathe programming quickly:

    http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/366-mastercam-x6-bishop-project-pdf/

    http://www.emastercam.com/board/store/product/402-mastercam-x6-bowling-pin-project-pdf/

     

    Finally, it might be beneficial to talk to your Mastercam reseller about getting training.

  6. Hello 79rr79,

     

    You might be able to get it to work by disabling graphics hardware acceleration.

     

    One thing to try is to go to Windows Start > All Programs/Apps > Mastercam X9 Demo-HLE > Advanced Configuration, then look for Graphics Support and disable hardware acceleration.

    If that doesn't work it's possible the computer isn't able to run X9, either due to the hardware or the operating system.

  7. Given the extent of Canada's sanctions against Iran (Including the line "a prohibition on the provision to any person in Iran of technical assistance, financial services, brokerage or other services related to the supply, sale, transfer, manufacture or use of any of the products subject to the export ban") (emphasis mine) located here http://www.international.gc.ca/sanctions/countries-pays/iran.aspx?lang=eng I'm going to unilaterally declare this thread locked.

  8. I've shot a message over to a developer who specializes in IP board we work with occasionally to see if she has any ideas, see if we can get this figured out.
