Hmm... there is no V3.02 possibly you meant V3.00.2?

Mine does indeed say V3.00.2

Maybe try reinstalling it?

Tried that ,no luck, how dangerous is it to delete all references to LCam and
reload it?

Personally I have never had to go that route. When I had a LazyCam issue, I actually went ahead and saved all my Mach 3 info like my macros and my XML file from Mach 3, uninstalled Mach 3 and LazyCam and then did a complete reinstall of Mach 3 (which includes LazyCam) and all was good.

Maybe someone else can chime in with an idea of what might be wrong here.

Hi, Brian

I just downloaded the LazyCam 3.00.2_Update, The LazyCam.exe in it is 3.00 and not the 3.00.2 ver., Don't no Why though.

The LazyCam_Update is the one you want, It has the updated dll's used in LazyTurn and should be the latest.

Sound's like that's the one you have installed, Most of the dll's file's have a Date of 03/31/2008.

Hears a copy of LazyCam 3.00.2.exe, Just re-name it to LazyCam and copy it to your C:\Mach3\ folder (Std. default location}.

I've never had any issues with installing new ver.'s on-top of previous ver.'s hear.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Weird, Chip, so it actually reverted backward at some point?

If i remember correctly, the lazycam update was to be used such that LazyTurn could be run independently.
As such all the required files are included and you can just put then into a seperate sub-directory under your MACH installed directory. This way if something was buggy you wouldn't affect your Mach installation of LazyCam.
Please correct me if this is posting is incorrect.
