    Slicing Software

    Hey!

    In the past i have been using the Makerbot software for slicing prints for my Replicator 2. For my other printer i used Slic3r and repetier host. Is it possible to create x3g files for the Replicator with Slic3r? The Replicator seems to not accept .gcode files.

    Here is a very good link showing how to create x3g files using Slic3r.

    Here is a video showing how this is done. It's for a Mac but also applies to Windows.
