Lazy Cam 3 comes with a download of Mach now. To get pro you have to buy a licenses in the plugins section under downloads I think.

Ok, downloaded the latest version of mach3,  it comes with 2.47,  the lazycam just under it for DL is also rev 2.47.  I still havent found
the 3.0 that the video tutorial shows off.  Any other place it may be hiding?

They changed the way they were numbering them a while back I think.

As a big fan of LazyCAM I was excited to see a new version, but I was disappointed too. Unfortuanely, the video for LazyCAM 3 is the old version of LazyCAM. That is a very nice looking version, but it is out of date. The newer version, as part of Mach 3 version 2.47, does not look as nice yet but has more capabilities. Art and Brian have been working on how to number revisions because there has been a lot of confusion due to frequent program changes. They started over with the newest version and in this case, version 2.47 is much newer than 3.

Bah  ,  your right im confused.  But I did kinda like the look of the old GUI.  It also seemed that the screen resolution was bit higher. But I will gladly trade off looks for a program that works.  This latest version seems pretty stable and is doing all I need of it. The only problem I have with the current rev is that I am color impaired and the chains that are selected are hard for me to tell from the ones that are not.

Thanks for the info,

Jeff
