Well I did some more playing with this ans it seems to be graghics card related. Was an older quadro fx 3500 I put in box and it seems to be causing the fits. I through a amd radeon hd 7450 I had laying around and its working way better. I don't think its a mastercam/ win8 thing. Just wanted to give an update.

I just demo'd it. I thought it was gonna be the xxxx, but after a week or so said naw I will stick with importing from solidworks. The chaining is a pain for me, and stuff like making silloette boundries and bounding boxes ect. in a few clicks is to hard to give up. I think it has its place esp. on simple one off parts that change slightly from one to another. I know I only gave it a week but after using mastercam for 15yrs. I am biased I guess. With wcs and levels I can merge a changed model pretty quick anyways.

Mine crashes alot with stock models and going in and out of verify. I can run same program on a lesser comp. with windows 7 with no issues. Bad the is x8 seems to do it with stock models as well. I think I'm gonna have to build a windows 7 comp

check with your reseller for training classes.

thanks use free mode wasn't checked, seems to help. Appreciate it.

How do I fix when working in different wcs when I push middle mouse button to rotate part it will completely flip views with any cursor movement at all. Like doing the lathe work in top wcs and milling on the end with right side wcs. Any ideas? real annoying.
-
I could donate a bunch of files for everyone to lay some paths to. Just trying to help.lol Is neat idea though.
-
bullxxxx! lol sorry I couldn't resist

This needs to stay at top and get a little attention. It really pisses me off when I click ok then have to go back and do it again. Its even more fun when I have it popping on second monitor.

Its in system configuration. Guess I could frikken look alittle. Man you guys are good.lol thanks

I was doing some work where I was bringing in the solid as surfaces instead of the solid. Now it automatically converting all solidworks and parasolid files to surfaces. Where is the setting so I don't have to remember to go into options each time on an import. thanks

Sun coming in open door. I'll take it, we still have a over a foot of snow on the ground.

This can't be an excuse, if the way covers are rotting off someone has to do something. Where the f is the boss. Nobody take any pride in the shop. Whats the rest of the place look like? lol crazy to me.

Windows8 64 bit. Only 8 gig of ram

This is what I get to a tee. I still think having 4 or 5 stock models for remaching is what is killing me.
-
What does everyone prefer for larger files, Say 30 plus 3-d operation with several rest machining operations. Just would like to here what the pro's thoughts are on more complex operations. thanks
-
Will do, I made a zip to go but of course its 50meg. I need to see if they can come take a look. Get some maintenance money usage. This kills productivity in a day. The scariest thing is the mysterious g55, I have never seen that.
-
If I close, I get a Object reference not set to an instance of an object error box. Maybe it wants me to say that 5 times fast.lol
-
No hp desktop, I don't know what that little popup is up there either? I am also getting a g55 if I post 4 tool paths together with the same c plane t plane, but if I just post them all individual there are all g54. F I don't know. Reboot time.
-
Give that a look, i am having to reboot to make it go away, but on these bigger files it comes back. Gary

Has anyone seen this error? attached

I could see it, thought about this approach a lot actually today. If i can get a guy that can bring in an extra 3-400k in profit, Hell thats worth a 40k bonus any day of the week. It seems like a alot better approach then paying a guy 80-100k a yr and not knowing if he's gonna pan out or not. My boss did this approach with me yrs before I bought the business from him. It worked very well for him. He didn't work hard at all, and I run like crazy. Of course I was getting more than 10%. It's a very controlled cost this way.

It will just make you mad you didn't just get the level 3. We had level two for yrs and had all kinds of workarounds to get stuff done. In the end we upgraded to level 3 and should of got that from the get go. Work is so much faster to get out to the machines now. I would of saved a decent amount of money just getting level 3 right away as well. The software just pays for itself so much faster having the full blown 3-d imo.

Have a vf5 doing it now, and other machines in the past. It has always been a leak or leaks in the system for us. The control checks for pressure every so many minutes and if it has a leak the pressure bleeds of and sets the alarm. It usually will finish its cut but alarm on the toolchange. Pain in the A@# on large dnc programs that have tool changes.

Ron, you have an email. thanks
