Slic3r 1.1.7 vs 1.2.9...

[lakester]

Did you start with a pre-existing profile (.ini)?

I've just started printing with v1.2.9. It is the first version since v1.1.7 that actually works. I don't know if it really works yet, but I've managed to print a few parts with it.

This morning I started a slice of a hollowed skull that I was working on. It's been going since 7:30 this morning. I'm thinking this v1.29a is more flash than substance. Try slicing this with v1.29a and printing it. Good Luck!


You know??? I was going to attach and post the .STL file of the hollowed skull that v1.29a can't slice. But for some unknown reason, 3DPrintBoard doesn't know what a .STL file is ??? Can somebody explain that to me???

You have to change the file extension to something else, like .txt or something. Then whoever downloads the file needs to change it back to stl

If the upload happens, I'll give it a print using 1.2.9..., using my .ini as-is. When I have time, will set up one my previous failed prints, but will reset the extrusion multiplier back to 1.0 to see if that makes a difference. In the meantime..., heh..., 1.1.7 works juuuuust fine..., albeit kinda slowly...
