Upgrade to Pathpilot 2

Has anyone successfully upgraded to PP2? I am trying but it is not going well. PP2 has a totally different way of loading the ini, no longer is config.txt used but a python file intervenes. I mangled to get it started but it is soooooo slow, won't load everything on screen and won't reset.

I can't see much different in a standard Tormach ini file and my own but will persevere until someone has done the same thing.

If anyone has successfully completed the upgrade please do jump in....

Cheers

Hi,
I have been playing with it on a spare computer. Trying to get it into sim mode,no luck so far.

Well after some setbacks I actually have PP2 running my machine. I will document the process of moving from PP1 to PP2 sometime tomorrow so others can get it working. Not many actual changes required but PP2 now runs 2.8 pre under 64bit Mint Mate so any extras added to your PP install will need the 64 bit equivalents.

More tomorrow

Cheers

Hi Racedirector, any chance we could get your thoughts on the update? I'm struggling a bit. Thank you.
