Re: Repitier host 0.95e

no problems at all.  Installed with no problems.  Notice the "Change settings not saving" bug is still there but been living with it for a while now

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

They fixed the bug where if you specified another slic3r config directory, you edited in the specified directory, but sliced with the default.  Now I can keep my slic3r profiles synced on all my PC's.

They need to put a PIN on that 3d-toolbar, it sliding in and out is driving me bonkers..

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

It freezes for me when I try opening it. I had to go back to the previous version.

SD2 w/ mods: Rumba controller, ATX PSU, SD pro case, glass bed, with more to come...

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

After Running about 3 hours last night RH froze on me and ruined the print.  Not sure if it was a fluke has something to do with the new version.  Will start print again tonight and watch more closely...

Also, I had similar problem with previous version crashing immediately upon opening with WIN 7. 
I had to ensure that the previous version was fully uninstalled before trying to install the new one.

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

For me, it has been hanging after slic3r tries to write the file:

21:15:07.772 : <Slic3r> => Exporting G-code to E:\Users\TheBogueRat\AppData\Local\RepetierHost\composition.gcode

Sometimes it will come back after a few minutes but tonight I let it sit for an hour and nothing happened.  The progress bar kept scrolling.  It's worse with multiple objects on the platter.

I installed and selected Slic3r 9.10 and that seemed to fix my problem but it is still slower than before.

Win 7

I had similar issue and had to turn off "AVOID CROSSING PERIMITERS" as it seemed to cause slic3r to hang.

Also, had twice now RH Crash in the middle of a print and only Error I could see in WIN 7 event viewer was an unhandled exception in OPENGL

The problem I still see with the new Slic3r is if I change say PERIMITERS FROM 3 to 4 once I hit save I watch it physically go back to 3. 

However, If I change it to something stupid (like 3 to 40) it takes it when saving then I can change form 40 to 4 and it saves fine. GO FIGURE

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

Thanks, I turned off that option and it seems like it is back to normal.

I've been using a Panelolu because I had issues with computer lag. I miss the computer interface but the Panelolu is great and has eliminated host issues for me.

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

Too funny, I've seen that problem for a long time now.  I tried using the little arrows to change the number; tried changing a bunch of stuff at the same time; and finally just broke down and look for the .ini file to change it manually.

You do have to change it to a huge number, save, then change back to what you wanted in the first place for it to work.

I can't complain too much, the price was great and the SD2 has been working like a champ since I got it tuned in.

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

This issue was already submitted by others also on the GITHUB

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

Still cant get 95e to see my printer, 85b works fine.  I shouldn't have to uninstall the old version should I?

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

same, it slices fine, i just can't get it to recognize my printer or connect to my sd3, any ideas? .85 is still running fine.

17

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

tried 95 f.   still will not connect to my printer.     does it do anything better or am i trying to get it to work just for a better paint job?

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

I am running .95 with slic3r 1.0. I like the look and feel of .95. I did have to change some defaults to run the printer. When I get home, I will post some print screens. Slic3r 1.0 is giving me really nice prints on some small clips and pin I have been running. Much cleaner that the previous version.

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

Just updated to the latest version (0.95F).  I am having trouble with this version loading models.  It has been taking 30 min and only about 20% done importing the .stl file.  It could be the .stl file but I was importing the files into the a previous version (0.82B) without any real delay. 

Running Windows 7 with an SD3. 

I have been using Skeinforge for all my prints and I have decided to upgrade repeiter and get the latest Slic3r working.  I was very impressed how well it sliced models and printed them on an Orion Delta printer I was setting up.

Any thoughts on loading .stl time would be helpful!

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

How big are the stl's? you need lots of ram in windows for larger stl's.

21

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

I have been scaling back the .stl file size from the previous version of repeiter host.  I am down to around 100k triangles with a file size of ~12MB.  I have 8 GB of RAM on my machine.

22

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

I just ran a 20mb file in a couple seconds.  You probably need to try running the model through netfabb to clean it up.

Have you tried turning off "AVOID CROSSING PERIMETERS" before slicing.  There is a known issue with slicing either taking too long or hanging with the feature turned on.

Re: Repitier host 0.95e

ok, so it is more than likely my model. 

Thanks!

Re: Repitier host 0.95e
