sometimes i still have to use slicer because cura doesn't not provide honeycomb filling

thanks for this detail that can change everything

The xyzware open mod version does the conversion for you automatically when you import the gcode.

I was able to get slic3r to work with settings I found on a "scribd" writeup, prints looked great!
But I'm having trouble figuring out how to translate those settings to the cura. The prints come out looking horrible. All sorts of issues.
Thanks

Something I noticed with the cura gcode output today. the first move was a combined x y z move, so that meens it goes straight to the point specified. Considering that my z home position is bellow bed face that caused issues as I am sure you can imagine. so adding a nominal z move prior to this solved the issue.

And again as far as swapping g codes just use the note pad and do a replace all. It should be fine.


i've seen that you've been running your printer with cura during 8 hours
could you send us the profile you used?
did you change gcode , Z offset or else?

thanks

I was able to print successfully using Cura.  I compared the gcode generated by xyzware against Cura for the same STL file and noticed Cura use G0 command in gcode whereas xyzware doesn't.  So I replaced all G0 with G1 and voila, it printed beautifully provided the usual xyzware header is included.  There is no need to offset any z value.  The only downside is I had to manually replace G0 with G1 line by line and that took a long time even for a small file.  It would be nice if someone can write a little program that will automatically replace all G0 with G1.

so i suppose it's possible to do it, i just don't know where i'm mistaking
and i realy don't know much things about programming

It does work with the Repetier firmware, I used it many times with no problems. On a Mac the "Ping Pong communication" option in the Repetier Host must be turned on to avoid a nasty bug in the Host.

I tried once with the repetier firmware and it failed like there wasno gcode to send so it may have been a user error, but every report of trying through xyzware is the same as yours almost. Is your cura set to absolute or relative position?
