General Mach Discussion / bobcad post processor question

« on: May 27, 2006, 01:46:14 PM »

Hi everyone,

Has anyone seen the Mach2 post processor for Bobcad V19 crash the app? I have other posts for other machines
and have not had a problem. I've never actually crashed Bobcad until now, but I loaded the Mach2 post
(from Bobcad site) and can't get the simplest of toolpaths to post out without crashing.

Does anyone have some thoughts on the matter?

Thank you very much

Evan

Hey Benny, Brian's the one who told me you're the man with screen4. He is still using screen3.
Art, thanks for the follow up.

Hey Brian,

Cool! Thank you! BTW I wasn't really trying to change you wizzard other than to understand the process of using
Screen4. I thought trying to replace an element would teach me how to use it.
In the gen disc post I've posted an error message I'm getting. Can you tell me if that's why I couldn't modify the reset
button?

Ok, so I can't figure this out. I've got Screen4 stored into the Mach3 folder now. I understand the icon error
is a coffe stain.
It launches ok and all the objects seem to work ok but, when I open the properties of an object I get the following
error.


When I click OK, the properties window comes up but I can't do much with it.

Anyone know how to correct this?

Thank you

Evan

Brian,

Ok, I give up, what's the proceedure for replacing a bmp? I tried to swap the reset bmp
with a different one, no work. I tried it again by changing the file name to match original,
no work.

Also I'm still getting the message show in above post, Ive got it all installed in the Mach 3

folder now. But no change. I'm not sure what the meesage means. Can you give some
insite?

Thanks

Evan

Wow! I hope you're joking. I'm laughing my butt off thinking that I figured a coffee stain for a corrupted file.
I'm still looking at the post 3 minutes later wondering if your pulling my leg.
Very good computer story - right up there with the "push [Any] key".
Sorry for the alarm, I'll check it again soon with Mach 3.

Thanks for the clarification.

Ok, so placing the files in the Mach folder doesn't change a thing.

Can some other folks try & download the Sceen4 and look at the
.exe file icon? See if it maches my post showing a torn edge.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this typically means a damaged file upon receipt.

Hey Brian,
So I got all excited to try and make the correction that when I was successful,
I thought why not try & throw in a new reset bmp. I made it, renamed it, and replaced
it with old one and it showed up fine but now it doesn't work.

So attached is the CCW, CW corrected version with included reset button bmp. If you like
it, use it. If not, OK. But you'll have to fix the reset function.

Also, I'm getting an error message when I lanch the object properties. I posted the related
topic in General discussion. It looks like the .exe file is damaged. I've dnlded a few different ways
to no avail.
