Starting with Mastercam 2024, the Simulator Options are changing to help reduce redundant workflows, and provide one single location for all settings related to the active machine group and Mastercam Simulator. Mastercam Simulator now only uses the information in the Machine Group Setup panel to populate the simulation. Options previously found in the Simulation and Data tabs of Simulator Options dialog box are now in the Simulation panel. The Simulator Options button is still available for lathe, mill-turn, and wire machine groups.

The options in the Components tab are now in the Stock Setup and Workholding pages.

Additionally, the Verify selected machine group option in the Verify selected operations drop-down has been removed. The changes to the Simulator Options dialog box and the Machine Group Setup function panel automatically include this functionality, and it is now a redundant option.

NOTE

The Simulator Options dialog box includes the option to use the new Stock Override option upon entering simulation. You can choose between a stock model in the current part file, from a file, or selection from the graphics window.
