Title: Mach3 and LazyCam Pro
Post by: split63 on April 07, 2007, 06:39:27 PM

If you purchase Mach3, do you get LazyCam Pro also?

You get Lazy Cam, but not Lazy Cam Pro.

Does LazyCam Pro only work with a non-demo version of Mach3?
I don't see a setup screen in either Mach3 or LazyCam to enter a license code???

Hood is right, it is not finished but I think it does support the feature you want. You just drag the license files into you C/Mach3 folder.

What is the "rest of the story" with Lazycam?    It seems to be approaching the functionality of Sheetcam.   Why re-invent the wheel?    What is the plan for LazyCam......what additional features/abilities are planned?

It will have many benefits and features as time goes on.

Well, as usual, the guys at Artsoft want nice things to be in the reach of everyone. This is evident in Mach and Lazycam. We ask for features, and if within reason, they do it at no extra charge in most cases. These folks aren't greedy at all, just makeing a living. Where else you gonna find that?

At the top of this page in the Tutorials section, video tutorials, down toward the bottom. Two videos there should help you.

When you import your drawing you need to seperate all the different depths of cuts into different layers. Then assign the layer depth of each one. DO NOT USE SET ALL LAYERS as it will set ALL layers to that depth. Just input the proper depth of each layer and push "SetLayer". This sets only the layer you are working in. That way you can control the depth of each and every layer.
