I will have a look at octopi cheers.

Currently trying to get softshaper to work.
got a clean machine, clean windows 7 64bit install, ran all the updates. Installs okay.
Just crashes when you try and use it lol

Shame, as when it works, it looks like it could be a real challenge to simplify3d - but obviously not, if you can't use it :-)

I'm even contemplating sticking windows 10 on to see if that helps (has to be a first time for everything).
It is only beta. If it was MS, that would be a released product ;-)

Note on octiprint, noticed slow prints (at least I think so) wheen uploading gcode to server and then print. alternative is to upload to sdcard and print. I will do a comparison and report back.
