  1. Hi,

    I want to install CuraEngine in my windows 10 64bit PC. The CuraEngine that is available in github site is about how we install in linux. Can you please let me know how I can install it in my PC. My intense is to produce gcode from a STL file and send it to the 3D printer as well. Please guide me how I can do it.

    Thanks & Regards,

  2. Hi,

    I'm able to generate .gcode file using below command

    CuraEngine -c "C:\path\to\preferences.ini" -o "C:\path\to\test1.gcode" "C:\path\to\\snowManAll.stl"

    It is failing to load if I pass .obj or .amf file instead of .stl files

    Need your guidance in this concern.

    Thanks & Regards,

  3. Hi,

    Now, I'm able to produce the .gcode file from .stl file but failing for other files like .obj and .amf etc.

    Using the command as below;

    CuraEngine -c .cura\15.04.3\preferences.ini -o C:\Path\to\the\file.gcode C:\Path\to\the\file.stl

    The Cura Version I'm using is:

    Cura-15.04.4

    Please guide me how to produce .gcode from .obj and .amf files.

    Thanks & Regards,

  4. Hi,

    Using Cura-15.04.3 and not able to see definitions/dual_extrusion_printer.def.json file.

    Please let me know how do I set the environment variable in CMD Command prompt in windows. Where to feed the line CURA_ENGINE_SEARCH_PATH=/path/to/Cura/resources/definitions:/user/defined/path if definition folder is missing.

    Do I need to buy a paid Cura software if I want to run it from command prompt.

    Can I use GNU Affero General Public License additionally. If so then how?

    Using CuraEngine -s "C:\path\to\STL File\" -o "C:\path\to\test.gcode" command and getting

    Default Config 'default.cfg' not used message.

    Thanks,

  5. Hi,

    Usually I'm getting GNU Affero General Public Licence message and default.cfg file not found while running CuraEngine from CMD Command prompt. Kindly let me know how to overcome this issue.

    Though the .gcode file is produced its contents are not expected and not similar to the gcode file produced using GUI.

    Using the command as below;

    CuraEngine -o C:\Path\to\the\file.gcode C:\Path\to\the\file.stl

    The Cura Version I'm using is:

    Cura-15.04.4

    Please help me producing a correct gcode file.

    Thanks & Regards,

  6. Hi Nallath,

    If I try to use GUI it is generating the gcode with proper contents.

    But, when I'm trying to produce the gcode using CMD Command prompt it is producing gcode with very less and wrong contents.

    Every time it is showing GNU Affero General Public License message.

    Can you please guide me how to over come this issue.

    Thanks & Regards,

  7. Hi,

    It is generating the .gcode file but contents are not expected.

    We get the below error message:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Default config 'default.cfg' not used

    Config(part1.ini): Line 1: No key value pair found

    Failed to read config 'part1.ini'

    Failed to open part1.gcode for output.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It is generating well from UI.

    Do we need any licence or rights to run it from command prompt?

    We do not get .ini file any where.

    If no licence is required then can you please share the exact command using which we can generate a .gcode file

    Please guide me what ideally I should be doing.

    Thanks & Regards,

    Debakanta

  8. Hi,

    Tried passing all kind of arguments with all possible ways but every time gcode is produced with unexpected contents. They seems to be of around 15 lines of info without gcode complete contents.

    Without -o C:\Path\to\fileName.gcode option the output is coming as below:

    While running the CuraEngine -s "C:\Path\to\file.stl" I'm getting the output as below:

  9. Hi,

    We have installed with Cura-15.04.3.

    While trying CuraEngine -s "C:\Path\to\fileName.stl" -o "C:\path\to\fileName.gcoce" we are getting the gcode file but the contents are not coming as expected.

  10. Hi geosfi,

    Can you please let us know what exact command you have given to produce a gcode file from CMD prompt.

    I don't have .ini file. I just use to give CuraEngine -s "C:\path\to\STL File\"

    Though it is producing .gcode file the contents are not the expected stuffs.

    I get the out put as below:
