I don't know if this is the same problem i had but latest version of mach would take all the radius moves and make circles out of them or a figure 8 i had to delete that version and go backwards in version's to correct the problem working fine now.

If that's so then why when going back to an earlier version of mach would it correct itself? oh and i am not using LT the roughing is so so the finish starts backward rear to front.

Hi Hood
Thanks for your reply, after the update the arc's turned into circles and and figure 8's going backwards to earlier version's thankfully i saved them i was able to get the files back on line.

I recently updated to the latest version of Mach 3 i run a mill and lathe with Mach what i think would great is to have along with the update what it fixes like corrects bug in arc move ETC .
Recently  when i updated to the latest version of Mach on the lathe the G-code was all out of whack and these were files i had already cut so i know there were no problems before the update i had to remove the update and all it's files and then go backwards from 2.63 up to get my files working again letting us know what the update dose may save some time and work would be great if possible.

I have been watching the forum and seen a mention of inside and outside turning can LT do inside and outside turning?

Thanks
