    We are shooting for May. We have a 32 bit Version we could send out, but since most of the free world has gone to 64 bit we have not put it out until our 64 bit version is ready. I would be right here with you guys wondering where is it had I not come to work for a software company. I know it seems like I have gone to the dark side, but there is a lot that goes into making software. We appreciate everyone's need for it and glad so many use the free tools. We will let everyone know when we have something.

    Free app for Version 6 is closer than it was yesterday and still not there as of today. We have had about 700 people asking for this tool and it in the works. We apologize for the delay.
  3. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Hum sounds like your configuration location for 3rd part is not looking to the right place. Look here:
  4. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Did you have it already? Do you have the drop down on the top of the screen that says Verisurf? Do you have the MBD Tab?
  5. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Hockey Guy nothing new was added? Do you have admin rights on the computer you installed it on?

    Try this link:
  7. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Yes as a matter of fact there is a free one. Download the Verisurf Free Tools and we have one in there. Check out the thread I have pictures about it in there. Linky:

    Hum well take a look at some of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hzumu6hHK6U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc10x5Hv1SE Frog to Solid Video Download Now Verisurf does give the ability to check back to the STL without even needing a surface or solid model. Mastercam .stl fiels are not good to make models from, but things might could be done. We keep adding tools and I have some old files I might try some of new tools on and see if they help.

    You take care as well. It was good to meet you and put a face to the name. She is pretty awesome glad she got to go to Paris and Hannover with me.

    O1002(SUB PROGRAM) N970 #100 = [#100 + 1] (COUNTER OF MARCO 100 TO VALUE NEEDED) N980 IF #100 > 20 GOTO N1000 (COUNTER UNTIL END OF BAR IS REACHED) <-- COULD USE A MACRO VARIABLE HERE TO MAKE IT A UNIVERSAL PROGRAM FOR ALL STOCK N990 M98 P1000 (KEEP CALLING MAIN PROGRAM) N1000 M30 (END SUB PROGRAM AT COMPLETION OF BAR) it has been some years since I used this stuff and think I made a mistake it should look like this. HTH

    MrFish we have talked about that but what is a small fee to some is murder to others. We know people need and use it and we will get er done as soon as we can.
  12. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Besides sever goes down you got 11 guys doing nothing but screaming till the sever is back up.
  13. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Well we are going to have the 32 bit for download soon. 64 bit will be some time as John said. We got the final SDK on the 28th and making a 64 bit version is some work. We appreciate everyone enjoying our free products, and as soon as we have something we will post up our free tools again.
  14. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Hum I remember if you saved the out as a solids as a file and used that file then all the solids would come in without the need to do Boolean add. Anyone tried that method?
  15. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Yeah glad to see people doing things never thought possible just 10 years ago. We passed the 100 arms sold point. Amazing little pieces of equipment. As product manager I can say I am really impressed and think every shop will benefit from this solution. Here are a couple videos about what it does: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc10x5Hv1SE

    45 sfm would be pushing it IMHO, 20-25 sfm should be a good SFM for that material. HTH

    As a company I appreciate the way we do our best to address each individual customers problems and the fact you spoke the owner of Verisurf points that very thing out. I am sorry you feel I was unprofessional in my response, but I am very proud to work for Verisurf. We do some very unique things as company and I just to make sure people see we do care and are not a sloppy company that does integrate very well with Mastercam. Thank you for the comments and have a great day.

    Saipem you have had a bone to pick with us for a while now. I would appreciate it if you would reply in a professional manner and not spout out a bunch of non relevant information. We have 1000's of happy people using Verisurf that never had the problems you had. Thanks and have a better day. The Verisurf name was attached to the Mastercam Error. Uninstall the Verisurf Free Add-on and the error will still pop up.

    Will X2 even run on Windows 7? It might, but make sure the UAC is turned off. Also make sure you run it in on a 32 bit OS on windows 7 and might even need to run the compatibility mode for XPSP3 as well. Good luck with X2 on a Win 7 64 bit system not even sure if it will run? Maybe someone else can chime in on that one.
  20. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    I think the better question is how are you going about doing creating the toolpath?
  21. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Like suggested above use Verisurf's free hole axis tool. You can window a model and will it put a Vector, Point and Arc on the cylinder of surface models. On most part 3 clicks and you are done. Free Download HTH
  22. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Okay people are still downloading so I will keep bumping thanks everyone and see no spam from me. See some funny names.
  23. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Thanks I appreciate it.
  24. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Well it is a 32 bit software in a 64 bit environment. That is all you are going to see. Difference is you can do it and 20 other things at the same time and not have a problem. Soon you will see something that will make you happy just wait a little while longer.
  25. Ron Branch @ 5th Axis
    Wow still keep getting downloads of these Videos. Thanks Everyone and this is a bump so others can see it as well.
