Hi everyone! Im just starting to get into cnc and have hit a problem with the software end of it. I have made the 3d model that i want and have downloaded the MAXScript cnc_toolkit (CNC_Toolkit_Beta_MaxScript_3.19.mse).
When i make the toolpath, i cant export it. I get the error message:

runtime error: feature not available: "createFile"

can anyone tell me what im doing wrong?

Many thanks!

You'll need GrabListener:

HTML Code:

When in Gmax the export to ScriptListenerWindow (under Post Processor Options) finishes, launch GrabListener in gmax's scripts folder, you can right-click it and select Open to run it. Select destination File (*.nc), ready!
