OK, Finally down and made a part I had already made in Eagle.

A P485 SOIC 20 pin. So the program generated a step file.

I need a .SCR file for Eagle to use.

What did I miss?

Can you all give me a hint?

I may have misread your question -- please make sure to specify an output file for both "Output Directory" fields. Do you have a valid path for both? Note the green marks are for the footprint, and the red for 3D STEP...

I assume you're using the latest 2013.13?

Ok I admit I spent little time on setup. Including waiting to put the directory name in on the fly.

I'm going to go over the videos and written instructions carefully today. My fault, I just wanted to get up and running with a result to check as soon as possible.

I do have one question. Does Nick ever sleep?

I mean support here is great. I have always gotten answers here quickly. You guys have a passion for the project.

Thanks, be back soon Wink
