This is what I get :

Verify looks fantastic.

SHading is available but it is not smooth looks like 'cloth' texture - does that give you any clues ?

Bullines

Have installed drivers correctly - am now getting more options in the driver for things like OPenGL , anti-aliasing etc

What are the optimum settings as far as you know ?

Bullines thnaks for the help so far - much obliged. I am working on it - will get back to you with progress.

I downloaded what are the latest drivers form the nVidia website for XP/2000 - and installed on the system - it didn't seem to make any difference. Is it better to uninstall and install these drivers in safe mode ?

Sorry but you seem to be the video card guru - hoping this would get your attention and others.

2 things to try

make sure that the tool_op is being accessed

by adding ~tool_op before the if statements.

also you are using spdir for testing try adding

~spdir to see what values are actually being tested

We posted a question yesterday under JoeB - we are still having some issues - but we did use M33 to unclamp the 'A' axis even though it is meant to be unclamped by default. This got the rotary running without clamping and unclamping at evry move - now te issue is that even though the move in A should be say 2.35 deg the rotary is rotating about 25 deg. Any ideas ?

Apologies to all if I came on too strong -

but I will never apologize for exercising my freedom of speech.

..and I would defend your right to exercise that right

Just trying to bring some balance to this generally one sided (politically) forum.

People seem to use the phrase un-American for something they disagree which I deem unfair. That is why I ask in all seriousness what does un-American mean?. Secondly I have as much right to be on this forum and respond to postings as the next person.

If one wishes to start a political thread one then one has to deal with responses to that political thread.

The response to the un-American was to iowajim not rekd.

You mean from Canada

Is it not un-American to call another American un-American ?

What exactly does un-American mean?

looks like the RNC is making your mind up for you

Again you miss my point.

Wars fought by America (most that I can remember)

since 1941.

Roosevelt, Truman - WW2 - were they soft on the Germans or Japanese ? Democrats if I recall ?

Truman - Korea - was he soft on the communists?

Eisenhower - Republican

Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon -Vietnam (i Beleive Kerry fought in that one) 2 democrats one republican - were they soft on the communists?

Ford - ?

Carter - (well)

Reagan - 200 + marines killed in Beirut - what exactly was done in response?

Bush Sr. - Gulf War

Clinton - Yugoslavian conflicts, Somaila

Bush Jr - Iragmuire, Afghanistan

NEXT -

Besides which Kerry has stated he would not withdraw the troops.

AS FAR AS SPAIN -

The majority of the population of Spain was

always against going to Iraq.

I do not understand how one can equate being a democrat with it being a vote for the terrorists. The terrorists do not give a damn who is in office - if one takes the argument that they have been at war with the US for 20+ years then that covers Reagan, Bush and Clinton. Islamic terrorists are simply anti-western - be they Republican, Democrat, Green whatever. Wars fought by the US have been fought while both parties have been in power. I hardly think that whether Gore or Kerry were/are in office there would not be a response to any attack on the US. Just as in the cold war period Democratic Presidents Kennedy and Johnson fought the communists in Vietnam.

Are you looking for chip removal or just machine simulation - there is add-on product by Camaix that does a 5-axis machine simulation.

Thank you everyone for the excellent info.

Winnie Teh Pooh !

I am asking about the selection of feeds and speeds when job setup is set from material -the pitch is absolutely correct !

It seems that mastercam does not have a separate field for taps in the actual material setup for feeds and speeds -to get something more realisitic one would have to set feed/speed uand set to tool or simply overwrite the values mastercam calculates which seem to bee for drilling only.

Why does mastercam output such high spindle sppeds for tapping when job setup is set for feed rate from material.

e.g. material alum 2024

5/16 RH Tap sets F = 162.9 S=2933

Is this the same Bush that fought the threat of those days -the communists in Vietnam ?

Or was it Kerry the 'softy' that fought them ?

Speak to your reseller - raster to vector converter - mastercam add-on includes .ai and .eps formats for direct import of illustrator files.

When programming tombstones using verify can you see if you get a crash DURING and index move say if the tool had not retracted to a safe distance ?
