I haven’t posted here in a few years nor have I had the time to use my Crossfire. I’m looking to sell it once I make sure everything is up and running properly, but I had a question that I can’t for the life of me figure out.
The question is about software, specifically what was needed. I know that originally I used Fusion 360 to create, and if I recall correctly I also used Fusion to map out the tool path and all that stuff. After that, I used Mach 3 I believe to make the actual cuts.
The question is, where does Sheetcam come in with all this? The reason I ask is my old laptop with the software went kaput, and I’m trying to piece everything together from the laptop’s SSD that I was able to recover. I see a folder for Mach3, but none for Sheetcam. I’m beginning to question whether or not I even purchased it if it wasn’t needed, and I don’t recall using it from the screenshots I’ve seen.
Thanks, sorry in advance for the old-guy questions.
If you had installed SheetCam you would have two sets of folders.
First, on the C Drive, in the folder, C:\Program Files (x86), you would have a folder: SheetCam TNG, if you don’t have that, you didn’t install it.
If that folder does exist, then, to check if you have a SheetCam license, you would look inC:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\SheetCam TNG and check to see if there is a file “license.camlic”.
This would be your license file. Save that because you’ll need that for a replacement installation.
If you did install it with a license, then you might as well save the Default.tools, SheetCam TNG.ini, and the “posts” folder because this will have all of your previous settings.
Wow thanks guys. I think you’re probably right that I never used Sheetcam and that is why I can’t find it. I see all of the Mach3 files and folders on the SSD, so I’ll work on getting this copied to test things out.
