Freecad0.16-17-18/32-64bit+HeeksCAD1.1.0+HeeksCNC+blendercam

#1 Post by Revolverve »

News:
#6feb2019-- Freecad team now got a an app.image of it,(edited :only 64bit),stable and dev ones. Those sfs are now ¨obselete¨, for those big dependencies hungry packages like freecad,appimage are win win solution.So,eventually we will be more likely to see addon of the app.image,sfs or app or pet or modified app.image of ¨official¨ ones.Started a new topic on Freecad appimage topic were we will look at test,revision, perhaps editing if needed...
Heekscad should see here sfs updates...or flag of its appimage if it come to it... and maybe 32bit freecad,if ask for it,because,lets be realistic,it need ram,cpu power,so ,who would run that old hardware,few.
#21dec2018--a fatdog800 freedcad-daily+full dependencies test sfs....100% warranty free..from same tahr builds,not fully functionnal, play safe,backup savefile/folder. (freecad-daily_0.18-beta-fatdog-64bit_2018-12-17=168 Mb),but it may be the only test.
#18dec2018-edited x 2-if you read it before ,it shure was confusing...sorry testing all tahrpup/xenial/32/64bit+bionicpup64+fixes strain the higgledy-piggledy me...
-uploaded(this453deps.sfs) a new freecad 32bit dependencies sfs for 32bit FC found here,in tahrpup & xenial ,old one was missing 1 lib,
libboost_python-py27.so.1.55.0 , fixed in the new 453.sfs and smaller in size than old 452.
Good thing helping "compatibility"of tahr,xenial,bionicpup for those freecad sfs is that they mostly use non native(currently not included within puppy's)
dependencies,so,no rush to make a dedicate version for each puppy...until dev team stop building it for tahr...or get it qt5 only..
#17dec2018-- freecad-daily-0.18-beta sfs updated (64bit)(32bit) --lots new ...
-32bit sfs need the same as before (this452deps.sfs)
-64bit sfs include dependencies.
note:
-1:wont for now try make 32bit freecad for newer puppy,its tahrpup tested and should run on xenialpup,but with tweaks you can use its 64bits sfs with *bionicpup64 .but,you will need qt4"base"+fixes:
-----instal from ppm >qt4 opengl+deps+qt4 svg and (this fixlibs.pet)
-2 feel sorry i left aside blendercad,i liked it a lot,but ,the ambitious project of freecad,the team efforts in development deserve the interest,with the sad "side effect".... next year....soon,should update Heekscad..

#1july2018--freecad-daily-0.18-beta sfs (64bit)(32bit) --path module and many more matured a lot ...unpacked with dependencies fc is fat,no surprises for so much features.
-32bit sfs need the same as before (this452deps.sfs)
-64bit sfs include dependencies.
#16apr2018--freecad-daily-0.18-beta (64bit)(32bit) --not yet qt5 build...so,it work.
No big difference from 0.17 "Roland"release,more of a "test of concept"...
Deleted oldies from this post and Gdrive.
#10apr2018--freecad-0.17 stable sfs(64bit)(32bit)
Again,32bit sfs need (this.sfs)xenialpup CE &tahrpup tested.
New freecad 0.18 will be qt5 build,my few attempt yet with everything touching qt5 where all fruitless -edit:its getting there in 2019...qt5 was officially released on 19 December 2012...outch...
#14feb2018--New freecad-daily 17 alpha1 from
git20180213(64bit)(32bit)
Again,-32bit sfs need (this.sfs)
-64bit sfs include dependencies.

#1dec2017--New freecad-daily 17 alpha1 from
git20171124(64bit)(32bit)
Again,-32bit sfs need (4_52_freecad-dev0.17deps_only_6.0.5.sfs)
-64bit sfs include dependencies.
Deleted old stuff and comments on this post.

#26june2017--Test latest "beta" xenial pup32&64 with freecad only,works.
New freecad-daily 17 alpha1 from
git20170626(64bit)(32bit)
Again,-32bit sfs need (4_52_freecad-dev0.17deps_only_6.0.5.sfs)
-64bit sfs include dependencies
Heekscad sfs from 20170616(32bit)need same deps as freecad32bit,4,52 and (64bit full ,including dependencies)
Cleaned history of sfs build from this post...

#9oct2016-uploaded 32 bit freecad 0.16 stable sfs(freecad-0.16-32bit-stable-oce.17-ccx-assembly2_6.0.5.sfs),need (4_52_freecad-dev0.17deps_only_6.0.5.sfs)
#23july2016-Update Heekscad 1.1.0 32bit to latest build found(here ),need dependencies 4.52 sfs,same as freecad-daily(here)
Uploaded new Heekscad 64bit sfs with latest build found with dependencies(here)
#13july16--Again for curious users,anxious?get off your computer...pump some blood. FreeCAD-daily 0.17- Alpha1,(deleted from drive...so,let it flow)

#jun 15 -- Update Heekscad to 1.1.0 ,again it need same 4_5_freecad-dev0.15deps_only.sfs . Look for Heekscad-1.1.0+Heekscnc.sfs.
Donate ,buy or rent...not sure...ask Mr. Heeks. Great program anyhow!

# mai 15--Guess i could rename title cam/cad/linux/puppy/whatever..
Add a blender cam sfs for testing ,85Mb,same googledrive.Tested only on tahrpup,should work with other as its linux build ,no specific distro.
I did remove libGlU libGl from original causing me problem.
Check your cpu at work with that !

#19 avril 15---Heekscad+Heekscnc 1.0.0.B.sfs now working with 4_5_Freecad deps sfs
#8sept. 14--- add dxf import scripts. Copy scripts from the folder named :importdxfcopytoroot.FreeCAD
to root .FreeCAD...as the name says...
Why?:https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/Draft-dxf-importer
___________________________________________________________________

Tested on :
-tahrpup 5.8.3 & rc1 & 5.8.4&6.0 CE ** NOTE:Qtlibs does NOT like upgraded savefiles ,work fine from fresh install .
-xenialpup64 7.8.5 &xenialpup 7.0.1()freecad only)
-studio v2 OK .
(based on slack/O 13.37,but so much libs installed)
-else with negative test.. dpup,slacko :missing/misdirected/ libs or Qt version prob.

Hi,
I am looking for Autocad replacement. Just some basic 2d stuff.

I have downloaded latest tahrpup rc1 iso.

When I click on your Google Drive link, I get.....

"500. That’s an error.

There was an error. Please try again later.That’s all we know."

could you please take a look.

Also out of five sfs you have listed what do you recommend.
What they do individually.
I am a linux noob. I have used Autocad previously. I don't know or used any cad software in Linux. I just need this to teach basic usage to my friend ( I hope it is similar to Autocad).

I mainly use Fatdog.
I am at work now. I will install tahrpup when I get home.

Thanks.

Link should work now,sorry .

If you look for 2d cad only you could try LibreCAD ,its 2d only,of course 3d (Freecad,heekscad ,blender) or 2d DraftSight,etc. would do the job. I never used Autocad ,so, cannot guide you to your best bet in linux cad choices closest to it.

I agree the first post ,even if I tried to make it clear could be confusing,its a "work in progress" to improve explanations to what's what clearly.The autodidact jack of all trades I am is open to suggestions!

Happy learning Neeraj !

Hi
Could you detail how you compiled Freecad?
At present I'm using Slacko 5.9.3.
Thanks

yes Wolfgang ,Heekscad is oce0.15(only) compatible.
You made me realise that it was not clear in that old file named:
2freecad-dev0.15+git201408250402+deps_5.8.3.rc1.sfs.....
that it use oce0.15 and the possible confusion because that
same freecad-dev0.15 version number.
Solutions..
I got : 2freecad.....rc1.sfs + 4_5.deps...sfs+5_freecad....sfs
+ heekscad..sfs and it all work.,
a ram hungry working solution,
or use the beauty of puppy/sfs<>fast install\uninstall.

i just clarify the fisrt post,again...and files names.
todo> integrate oce0.15 within heekscad .sfs
and clean some more that 1st post!

Thanks for testing .

Hi Vverve,

do you know gsimple?
http://www.gsimple.eu/
It is much smaller than Heeks and is somehow easier to use!
Until now I used for the simulation CncSimulator but since it is a bit older I am looking for another solution.
The problem is that it is a Windows program and I have not made it all set so that you can use the built-in editor! I have to enter the program in a separate editor and then load only in CNCSimulator. This is a bit complicated!
There should be a program in which the CNC program can be entered in order then to simulate immediately.
Do you know something like that?

Wolfgang,
No knowed Linuxcnc simulation for tahrpup.
A rtai patched kernel puppy would for shure be appreciated seeing the interest in linxcnc debiandog rtai..no offence saintless to debdog,but it is a puppy of is own...
Shame on me...I still use Mach3 at home&work .
.but do got linuxcnc debaindog rtai cutting realtime at home.
You could look at blendercam too,so should I ,to eventually "puppyfy" it...
Gsimple look fine..run in wine too..5Mb of disk space.

I included missing libs in Heekscad/cnc in a "1.0.0.B" version.
Made it grows from 9Mb to 34...
report these sfs related problems here please.

hi Vverve,

Your Heeks I will test immediately.
found today the new qcad and converted it into a sfs. You can download it from my dropbox:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ho6llzv1eryu ... U0Jka?dl=0

Do you know Estlcam?
So you can conveniently generate a 2D drawing a CNC Prog. I get it under wine not to run to even though I have mono installed.
Maybe this is for you too interesting?

I have seen BlenderCAM and find it absolutely confusing. Is basically exactly like Blender very hard to use. Is not suitable for my application.
EMC I got in my old Linux version already to run. That goes with tahr 6.0.2 determined too!

Wolfgang
Good things if you have too much ram!!!!! If I understand correctly
,it works?

About cam ,there are lots of "free download /low cost" cam programs out there for linux , M$ /wine.

I used blender/gcodegenerator plugin with succes on 2/2.5d project.
A nice tutorial for it if ever: http://www.rab3d.com/tut_blender.php
I learned a lots there. I tend to like blender as cad...maybe because i aint got knowledge of $olidwork/Catia/etc...

If you design your plane ,keep in mind ,freecad found here come from dev daily build ,always bring a parachute ...
