    Mach3 wont apply offset?

    Im having a odd problem.. After running several operations without any problems I went ahead and shut down the system and figured i would finish the part the next day.

    After i rebooted and positioned and located part i loaded the new gcode file and started to cut, as soon as the cutter touched i noticed a problem.

    Cutter offsets are not being applied at all (dont know if its related but the toolpath in the mach screen is gone) Ive tried several different gcode files, different cutter dia, and gcode files from the previous day that worked, and nothing has worked.. The gcode should be fine please help

    .25" dia tool gcode
