Vectric Vcarve Pro

OK, so I just switched to vcarve pro 12.5

Trying to set everything up and then relearn new software. I was playing around with a file that had multiple tool changes and loaded the single G code file into carbide motion.

Did not have any tools in there other than the probe using the bit setter and the bit zero

Just running the XY and Z
Then I let it run over to the bit setter. Went to go run the file it told me to change the bit which I was not gonna cut anything out. I wanted to test the software. So I did not have a bid in there it ran, but never asked me to change a bit

Am I doing something wrong or did I not set something up in vectric vcarve pro

What post-processor have you selected?

Here are the options I have


Carbide Motion ATC (mm) should work fine.
