Hi,

You have attached your Shape3D file - what I would like to see is your Gcode file (as you would load to Mach3).

If you could .zip and then attach your Gcode file we could take a look and hopefully find the problem.

Hi Andrei,

Because you are using Mach3 in Demo...
Mach3 will load the whole of your Gcode when it is not connected to a controller.
When it is connected to a controller it will only load the first 500 line of Gcode. (this is a restriction placed on the Demo)

You need to purchase a Mach3 license to unlock the software; http://www.machsupport.com/shop/mach3/

Hi Steven,

Perhaps, as an initial step, follow through the Warp9 documentation on migration from Mach3 to Mach4 just to check that you have not overlooked something basic. https://www.warp9td.com/index.php/gettingstarted/migrating-from-mach3-to-mach4

There is no justification for using Pirate software.

Something for others who may be interested in halftone techniques…

SquiggleDraw (https://github.com/gwygonik/SquiggleDraw) is an App. which runs inside Processing (https://processing.org/). It is quite easy to set-up and use and it produces an .svg image which can be converted to Gcode within Inkscape (https://inkscape.org/en/) or other vector software such as Aspire9 (http://www.vectric.com/products/aspire.html) .

Here is an .svg generated image converted to .dxf (http://ul.to/vo1uiw3x)
 and the associated Mach3 Laser toolpath (http://ul.to/gqg1inuc)

I am sure you will not be the first (or last) person to do just this. 

Good news that you found it though.

Although I have never seen that particular error message if you have a corrupt .xml that could possibly be the problem.

Use; Operator / Restore Settings to install a backup .xml from a date before the problems began.
