All of our attempts to go from an Inventor Pro 2012 part file (or any of the other extensions you can save it under) have been unsuccessful. We can open the file in Mastercam, but as we try to add toolpaths, we get error messages or it simply will not select the contours.

We have tried to install Mastercam Direct and Direct for Inventor, but have not had much luck there either.... And there is very little documentation on installation, configuration and use.

If you've had experience with this same situation and have found solutions, I'd love to discuss them with you.

Doc,

What error message are you getting?
