We have 3 seats of Mastercam and 2 seats of solids. So the first 2 people to open Mastercam get solids. No problem. But we are having a problem that keeps happening. Sometimes when one of us closes mastercam, solids stays checked out. This morning I came in and both solids showed to be in use but no one had mastercam open. We keep having to have the IT guy reset the Nethasp to release the solids seats. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem???
Thanks

We are trying to install X+ on 64bit version of mastercam 6. We are getting a error message on lang.dll. But everything is in German so we are not sure what to do.
Help we really want to try to use X6.

What you can do is have your 2 different post. Then just run a VB Script that will post each program to each folder. I post to 8 different machines in the proper folder for each machine with just 2 clicks.
Yes this would be a great help. If I'm going to bring this up. I would help if I could show how to do it. Also I use a VB Script to run all my
Posts. Will my vb script work with the posts on a server?
This is what I hoped to here. Now the first road block. I was talking to our IT person. He use to be our programmer. He brought up , when one programmer adds a tool, how is the tool list updated for all the other programmers already using mastercam. Once you open Mastercam isn't it the list loaded into mastercam. Don't get me wrong I agree, just trying to get answers to questions before I bring it back up. If they bring up a road block I will have to find a answer and it will be that much longer before it can be switched. Another programmer said he wanted to use his list that way he knew what was on it and that it was right. I tried to tell him that we need to all be using the same tools.
Thanks for all the responses

Hey all,
I was just wondering if companies with more than one programmer used 1 tool data base on a server or does each programmer have their tool list set up on each computer. I think we should all be using the same tool list but need a good argument to convince everyone that is how it should be. Please give opinions.
Thanks

Hey All
Thanks for the replys. I have everything fixed except... I was told that I had to have the
G49
G05.1 Q1
Before my G43 line.
But how do you do this if you use the same tool to do a 2d high speed tool path then use the same tool to finish. The only way I can figure is to do forced tool change. Or use a diffrent tool. So close but not there yet.
Thanks

Hey John,
Things are going Ok, thanks. Just trying to learn about high speed tool paths. Got a new programmer here and he uses them alot so I have to learn so I can improve my programs. Thanks for the answer I will fix it. Just wanted to make sure before going to all the work.
Thanks again
