NativeCAM is Features renamed

Nativecam newbie question
I installed Nativecam 2.8 mill-mm with linuxcnc 2.7.11.
Simulation mode works very fine. Nativecam is a great piece of software!
I 've a little stepper driven milling machine and I tried to config a custom hal (parport address, pin numbers for step and dir, pin numbers for limit switches ...) with stepconfig wizard as I 've done for the earlier linuxcnc version without nativecam. But this failed. Transferring the old custom hal file to a newer one is not easy for a newbie as the file structures have slightly changed.
Is there a possibility to use stepconfig wizard for Nativecam 2.8 mill-mm with linuxcnc 2.7.11 ?

Hi, I am sure Nick had a tapered hole feature in his features. There is a config file in the NativeCAM/cfg/mill called taper-hole.cfg. Has this not been implemented into the main menu yet? Using NativeCAM 0.1.7

taper.ngc has not been updated for a year and will not work with other sub-routines at this time. Though I used it myself months ago, I had to select sub-routines I thought more usefull when working to make it deb based.
It is on my todo list for later.

Hi Peter,

I am sorry I can not help you with stepconfig wizard.
Work on your setup and make sure everything is OK without NativeCAM. It is easy to add after.

hi Fern, will nativecam work with gscreen in the future?
