Hey all my first post here so here goes it.

I'm switching from rhinocam v1 to featurecam but i'm unable to generate usable code using the same part i did in rhinocam.

I tried using every fanuc post processors in featurecam but i keep getting the same errors everytime. "unknown g code line *********"

what am i doing wrong?

Hi,

post a section of the g-code that is giving the error, then we will be able to help.

i used this post processor located in C:\Program Files\FeatureCAM\M-LBRY\DUALUNITS\FANU6M.CNC

and the results:

i've pretty much tried all the fanuc posts and they all look the same. Very different then the codes then Rhinocam put out.

HAVE you tried them other than looking at them??  I see a difference in the G43 H1 call  It appears the post is using G45 H1 instead. 

I have used other fanuc posts before in other programs and mach ran fine. SEEMS you need to contact FeatureCAM about a post.  Or learn to modify one for  your own use

Just a thought, (;-) TP

Try the cen 400 post in Feature cam. Works for me.
