<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Solidoodle Software Testing Volunteers]]> 2012-11-20T17:44:53Z PunBB https://www.soliforum.com/topic/190/solidoodle-software-testing-volunteers/ <![CDATA[Re: Solidoodle Software Testing Volunteers]]> Wow I'm starting to wonder if there are more software engineers here than other types of engineers.

I very much understand Solidoodle is a company so I'd assume anything they create will be closed-source.
I'd be glad to help test but honestly-  given the community-  we could probably come up with our own open-source solution.
I do think, regardless if open-source or not, there indeed should be an fully integrated s/w package to complete the plug'n'play nature of SD.
There's a few years of analysis/processing of volumetric medical imaging data in my past  (CT, PET, MRI)-  some of that should translate nicely to a slicing software.  I have a few experimental ideas about taking a different approach than other slicers-  interested to discuss them with others similarly inclined.

I've done many other 3d related beta testing before, and having my own computer business, I have a wide range of systems to test them own.

I can also contribute a Windows 7 machine and an OSX  machine to the pot of testing systems.

As he/her/it has just copied and pasted an old post within this thread. And the signature is a link to some random automated equipment manufacturer.

I'm a network admin by day who has meddled with web design and various forms of software development for the past 10 or so years.

I'd much rather be testing repetier host and slic3r. It is just better in every way - especially for new users.

I have a pile of spare MacBooks that I can test new builds on.

Developer (primarily web) and UI designer for 6+ years - microcontrollers and hardware development/hacking is more of a hobby:

I've worked in software development for over 15 years.  I program in the language this application was written in, and so far I've been really impressed.

I won't likely be switching back to pronterface any time soon, as my results are just way better with Repetier-Host and Slic3r.
