Yup, and just so you will know, I try to keep the very first topic of this post updated to include links to the latest plugin.

The devil is in the details for sure. It makes a lot of sense to add that little bit of instruction where you did and it looks clean. If you want it to really be seen make it stand a little more. Maybe use red text?

Mach3 under Vista / Re: Minimum PC requirements vs real life (Newbie)

You can run a Demo version of Mach3 on the CAD/CAM system to verify toolpaths(upto max Lines) and tooling etc,

If the PC is not actually connected to a machine you should be running in simulation mode (no motion device selected), not demo mode, which does not have the 500 line Gcode limit.

The required Graphics processing power (as far as Mach is concerned) is dictated by the size and type Gcode files you will be running in Mach. You do not need a high end gamer card but one with a gig of RAM would not be money wasted if there is any possibility the machine will ever run large Gcode files.

Do you have backlash comp enabled? If so, turn it off and retest.

I know Greg had plans for adding MPG support to the ESS but I am not sure if he has yet. You may want to ask him.

General Mach Discussion / Re: WHAT IF ?
« on: May 15, 2015, 09:09:30 AM »
I see lots of problems with the idea.

1) Mach is so flexible you have to limit the available options that go out with the installer if you intend to provide any level of tech support. Also, you have to think about how big the file would be. Not everyone needs an additional 25 screens, 1000 macros, 687 brains, etc.  

2) Which version of the different additions that have multiple versions available would you include? Who would decide this? Auto touch routines for example. No telling how many are available and there is not a one size fits all for it.

3) Documentation, who would provide all of the documentation?

4) If you could provide documentation who would read it? Who would take the time to explain all of it to those who do not read the documentation (if the documentation existed)?

5) I think a better idea would be to put it all in a very clean repository, maybe its own board, with nothing but the latest version and any instructions or information the creator considers essential. I tried this years back with the members docs board and think it has worked pretty well just needs more participation I think. It is a lot to look through, find, sort and try to choose the best I know. I don't think we can eliminate all of it but we could certainly make it a lot better.
