I have Vector Art 3D Machinist v1.205. I have followed the instructions and created a roughing toolpath and a finishing toolpath. I then clicked on 'Save V3M for VCarve Pro/Cut 2D and saved with a different file name including 'TP' to indicate that the V3M file contains the toolpaths. I then try to import the V3M file into Cut2D (v1.100) (with the 'TP' in the name) and get the error message 'Failed to import toolpaths .... check that the file contains toolpaths'.
What am I doing wrong ?
Vector Art 3D Machinist won't import into Cut 2D

Re: Vector Art 3D Machinist won't import into Cut 2D
Hello bhavers,
I am afraid that toolpaths created in version 1.205 of VA3D Machinist
will not import into Cut2D.
If you contact James Booth at Vector Art 3D, he can supply you with a
copy of version 1.003 of VA3DM which will work with Cut2D.
I hope that this helps.
Cheers,
Mark.

Thanks Mark. Do you know if v1.205 works with VCarve Pro 5.5 ?

Hello bhavers,
Yes, the toolpaths from VA3DM 1.205 should import into VCarve Pro
without problem.
I hope that this helps.
