Interesting changes from the blog post:

The most interesting one is that apparently it will no longer output .egc files, but normal Gcode that is useable on any machine. I think this is a good step forward.
Will it still think I want to open my project files from my windows fonts folder? 
Defaults to the desktop now at least… 
I’ve only gotten to play with it a little bit, but I think it is a very positive update. I also agree with Rob’s blog post that these machines stand on their own, doing away with the encrypted G code file creates only positive things for the C3D brand. Good stuff!

I tried the new software last night and it failed miserably (sorry to say). I downloaded the version for a MAC.
It saved my G-code as a .nc file, which was fine, but when I loaded it in Carbide Motion, after I zero’d everything and got ready to run, in the process, the progress complete advanced to 75% before it even started to run.
When I did start the run, my Nomad lowered the end mill about 1/2", did a few revolutions and considered the work complete and stopped. It never touched the surface of my material.
Thankfully I kept my older version of Carbide Create and was able to operate my machine with the file it generated, just like I always have.
I will wait for the newer software to have some updates as it did not work for me.
Sure thing Will. I’ll send that later tonight when I get back to my home computer. Thanks.
Mac version. Once you go to tool paths and choose objects and hit Contour or V carve the scroll bar disappears, there is no way to scroll the screen to save the code, chose material, view simulations.
Mac atill goes to fonts
Well, I downloaded the mac version, set up everything and saved the nc file. Opened that with CM on my pc, homed the machine, jogged it to the start position and zeroed all. Loaded the file fine but when I hit the run button it paused for a second then delivered the 100% done message. Tried it a couple of times with the same result. Pretty disappointing.
Luckily I didn’t overwrite the older CC so I created the same job in it and it worked just fine.
Same think happening to me with the new CC. It saves the .nc toolpath, but when I run it, it pauses, goes to 56%, then parks the spindle without cutting. Running it on a pc.
Please send any problem files to support@carbide3d.com along w/ a step-by-step description of the problem.
Hi there

Hi @kahojec,
You don’t necessarily need to reinstall an old version, a new version of the library of elements is now available online:

EDIT: this has moved to:
Hey Julien - thanks for the link as I was wondering where those were as well. Getting HTTP 500 for Thanksgiving. Though you have plenty of time before we need to resolve that one.
