Hello, i am trying to use Materialverter so i can use Sheetcam files in Plasmac, I am putting my toolset which i have saved from Sheetcam in the input box and have tried to put my material.cfg file in the output box but nothing changes when i load my .ngc file. I am still getting g-code errors and nothing is changed in the way the code is. Am i putting the wrong file in the output box?

Have you installed the Plasmac post processor in sheetcam?

Nope I used the linuxcnc post processor when I set it up. Is that something I have to add on to sheetcam?

When i run this PP it will run the entire cut and when it is done it stops in place at the end of the cut and i get a joint 3 following error, i have very little experience with gcode so im not sure what to do to make it go back to zero or where i started the job at. I used the PP from PHILLC54 (SheetCam post processor Revision F including a terse manual and toolset) because when i click the link in your post it doesn't go anywhere.

There are some settings in the sheetcam job or somewhere to park the torch.
