Choose he Newfangled title in the wizards list.

The license also works with  Nfsturn, CopyCat, and DrilWiz

What do I have to do to get copycat to see my license?  I get a no wizard license.  Using v2.86 and it runs fine and puts out gcode, but when I run copycat it displays no wizard license.  Thanks in advance.

I do not see how that can happen.  The wizard just uses the IsWiz() call to mach. I cant understand it working on the Mill Addons and not CopyCat.

Will you please try the DrilWiz and see what it returns?

It doesn't matter where you unzipit, as long as the files wind up in the right place on the shop system.

There is a problem if you keep two versions. One must have a different folder name, like Newfangled286. This causes a problem on the setup screen because it looks for the materials file in the folder Newfangled.

It is best to just keep one version installed, and be sure its in the Newfangled folder.

Gear cutting uses a subroutine called index.tap which is in the subroutines folder. The Y moves are in the subroutine.

The basic motion is to set Y to the first cut depth, advance the cutter in the X direction, then backup to the xstart position. Then the subroutine advances Y one step depth and the X move repeats. When Y has made all the steps to full cut depth the cutter is rotated one tooth and the cycle repeats.
