<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Slic3r 9.10b bottom horizontal shell layers missing?]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/4002/slic3r-910b-bottom-horizontal-shell-layers-missing/ Sun, 22 Sep 2013 04:27:42 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Slic3r 9.10b bottom horizontal shell layers missing?]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/36983/#p36983 Interesting, I wonder why it's setup to overwrite that. Adds a little more time to the print filling every layer but I will keep experimenting with it. At least I see who the culprit is, thanks again.

edit: I just went and tried the 8.4 version of slic3r and it does what I would expect where the N fill setting is applied after the number of bottom layers is applied. So I'm thinking they made a change and did not catch this big.

Slicer assumes you mean the bottom layers also. If you change that to infill every 1 layer it will work fine. I am a little confused about its math though. I noticed the same thing when running the file using your settings.

Try infill every 1 layer and change infill every solid layer to 0. That's what I've always done. I never understood why anyone wouldn't want infill on every layer.

In my case, that's 5 solid layers before infilling every n layers. Also, even if I set that setting to 1 then it would still only do one solid bottom layer and then filling each additional layer with the %density specified. If you use slic3r older version, it does not have this problem.

I also ran a stl repair using netfabb but still no luck after slicing. I have tried several other stl files and same result. Basic stuff like a cube has the exact same problem.

I see that layers 2&3 are not solid. I am curious if there is something that is making slic3r unhappy. can you screen shot the infill settings?

I noticed this because the bottom was so thin it began peeling and sticking to the print bed ruining the bottom of the print. I also provided a screen shot of the settings specifying the bottom layers to printed with solid fill. This was not the case on previous version of slic3r. If it's something simple that I am doing wrong, please let me know.

Make sure that slic3r isn't trying to use raft layers under the model.

Recently I have discovered since my update to slic3r 9.10b, that it no longer produces solid bottom layers up to the N number I specify. It prints one solid bottom layer and then proceeds filling with %density until the next specified solid layer. I have gone back and tried slicing with older versions of slic3r and they do not have this issue. Any ideas if this is a bug in the new version? Hope I made my issue clear. Thanks in advance
