Topic: Slicer with repetier host problem. works ok with stock xyz slicer

Hi, I have a print that will print just fine with stock xyz software and firm ware. I switched to repetier host and repetier firmware and now slicer will do most of my prints fine except for one that I print many of all the time on my stock xyz software.
Now when using slicer half of my print does not show up?

Re: Slicer with repetier host problem. works ok with stock xyz slicer

Try running your model through nettfab. The official Slic3r that Rep host uses is much more strict and picky. Chances are your model is non-manifold meaning the now missing parts are not actually attached even if by one layer and ignored by Slic3r. Non-manifold means your model has holes or voids and Slic3r like in Rep host will not like it.

it has to be sliced, the slicer is not the issue. The issue was the original stl. Now that it has gone through nettfab it should slice and print fine.
