incomplete gcode, cannot save on sd card, print stops too early

[derPotz 0]

Hi. Does anyone has the same issue with Cura not working properly?: A stl put into Cura appears to get transformed into pathes/layers ok (pic 1)

- but fails to save on SD-Card. It`s possible to save it on harddrive - but when opening that gcode in Cura it shows (2nd pic) that there are layers missing so that the printer is stopping then. The stl is fine - no open edges or else... checked with Rhino and netfab. Also the walls are at least 1 mm -using a 0,4mm nozzle. Happened with different stls. Any hints where to search the cause for this? I use a very good PC and Cura 15.04.4 (-and didn´t have the issue with former versions...) Thanks, Lars

let's see, you can always try a "file / Reset profile to default" to make sure you did not do anything strange to settings.

Next thing to play with are the "fix horrible" in the expert settings, think these can cause some strange behavior.

Did you view your model in X-ray mode?

"file / Reset profile to default" not available in 15.04.4

"fix horrible" ...?! if you mean repair options : didn´t change outcome

Tried reinstalling cura and also with older versions of Cura - same problems...

Xray looks fine
