[CuraEngine crashes with multi extruder]

Hi,

I'm having this problem when I use a dual extruder with CURA 2.1. (x32/x64 tested) When setting extruder = 0 there's no problem. When setting extruder > 0 the CuraEngine crashes. I also tried all compatibility (for CURAEngine) modes available in Windows10 included administrator mode. But no succes.

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

Greets,

[Cura 2.1 open beta has been released!]

Sorry to say, but Cura 2.1 doesn't work reliable with dual extrusion used for support (Mac OSX 10.11.4) (I know dual support is not official yet)

Just take a machine profile which allows to set "support_extruder_nr" (like the sample dual_extrusion profile). Slicing with support activated and support_extruder_nr=0 works well. Same settings but support_extruder_nr=1 makes the slicing process freeze after some time. This occurs not with all but with like 90% of the stl files I tried.

 

I'm having exactly the same problem in Windows 10 in different compatibility modes of the CuraEngine. From the moment I raise the amount of extruders, CuraEngine crashes. Till now it happens with all STL files.
