[Dylan Gondyke]

The redesign hasn't been implemented yet. Believe me, you'll know when it happens.

Is it still going to be a forum or?

I have not been able to login on the Official forum for sometime now. With Samsung bricking my hard drive my License file is not working and I cannot make the old hard drive register it. I am glad I have my other sim to keep working from or I would have been down until next week when someone comes back into work at CNC Software to help get me back up and running with my license file.

Makes me think I need to probably scale back and just do the Monday to Friday thing 9-5 and be like them. Funny Vericut had no issues since it tags my mac address that didn't change the only thing that changed was this drive was not used for 18 months while I was using my new drive. Glad I didn't wipe it like I was tempted to so many times over the last 18 months to do. Now when I go to Windows 11 I will have a Drive for that and a Drive still with Windows 10. I want to see how the License file process works with a dual boot system like a USB HASP does? I suspect they don't have a process in place to support that. Me and these crazy concepts, methods, and ideas. What is funny just like me being a contractor was never the plan, but was what I forced into to to keep my family feed and a roof over our heads. What is really crazy that was more than 3 times I was forced to do it.

I almost walked away completely from Mastercam after my last W-2 job fell apart. I have to wonder what direction would I have gone had that choice that was almost forced upon me what have put me to not use Mastercam had happened? Had someone listened to me about putting together a Pelican case with tools and test material to go to ever builder and prove out MT environments when I was part of the MT development team taken MT and me? Had the $2.2 million in funding from Boeing for on machine live inspection using Verisurf and Mastercam been adopted 13 years ago put the manufacturing industry at today were it done?

Never mind my rambling just some crazy person who is still trying to figure it all out.

I wish all the "crazy" thoughts, ideas, and information you have could be copied out of your head and pasted into mine. And that goes for most people on this forum. So much experience and knowledge here, Mastercam knowledge and life experience in general too.

As for the MC forums, the only change I've seen with the new login menus is a longer load time after entering my password. It's more like 15 seconds now when it used to be like 5 seconds.

The forum doesn't look any different to me.

The login area is different.

The login area is different.

They've changed the log in page a bit
I currently have an 80% failure rate trying to log in.
It's so bad I don't even waste my time trying to log in these days.

Woohoo, looking forward to it. Who am I kidding, I haven't been on there in a few years now

If the big makeover is similar to the big promises from MT, well...

10bucks says the new website will have a ribbon bar across the top....

And you'll have to contact your dealer if you want to change any details in your profile

I use browser plugins in almost all of my web browsers. I wonder if that has something to do with it. I've never tried to consistently connect to that forum with a clean stock browser. 

There are days that I have such a hard time getting on to that forum that I just give up.

I never u se Edge, and I have no plugins for that browser. Tried that browser didn't work either. This was a couple of weeks ago.
I have tried it with Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Opera. It's not our browsers, it's the dogshit forums.

Just guessing at TopSolid.
