Nicolinux 250 Report post Posted September 29, 2013 in Slicing fail Hi, I have another weird problem with a model here. Cura 13.06.5 (Mac). I sliced a part for this model: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:19881 There are four guns for the mech and somehow Cura decided that two of them should have a broken and displaced barrel: Of course I noticed it after a 6 hours print :/ Gcode: https://www.dropbox.com/s/89ancs6xnvjzb8k/legs_guns.gcode The other two guns came out alright. I wonder what caused it for the other two. Before adding the model to Cura I opened it in netfabb Basic and repaired it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gr5 899 Report post Posted September 30, 2013 in Slicing fail Look at it in xray view in cura. If you see *any* red then technically the model violates standards for what is okay in an stl file. Having said that, you will probably want to fix this using the "fix horrible" settings. Or seriously consider using an older version of cura that could handle "bad" stl files better: 13.04.

Nicolinux 250 Report post Posted September 30, 2013 in Slicing fail Ok, I need to remind myself to properly check every detail in Cura before I start long prints. I usually look at it in the layers view mode. But it is hard to spot errors that way. I will remember to inspect it in x-raw view mode. @daid: Maybe you could consider another mode like the Repetierhost gcode view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
