Hello all.. Just looking over this thread quickly and I can tell you that the license for the Rev 4 code will not be much different.. the only thing that will be added is the need to go to the web to get a registration number for the computer. This can be done with a remote computer and a pad of paper.. so if you have internet on your phone you can register your machine
. This is only to protect a license from getting out and people trying to copy it over and over.. we are going to allow many copies of the same license for the home users. As you all know we are here for you the users not for the people that like to use stolen license files and ask us for support.. So in the end this will give registered users MORE support not less
Also the new Rev 4 code (I had to start over because multi threaded Open GL burned me). has just got the new Gcode interpreter added in with the new cutter comp and better mm/ inch support! So I am making headway! This was all put into a multi threaded version of mach3 that has the GUI on the top level and the motion control on the lower level. This has allowed the user to "play" with the toolpath as the part is cutting with no ill effect to the pulse outputs. I have some testing that I need to do but I am thinking as soon as I am done with my testing that I will put this rev out for you to all test
I would love to know what you all think about the new Gcodes that are like the ones in Smid's book..
Well that is all I have for an update at this time
Thanks
Brian
