I've posted previously about using Makerbot Replicator 2 3d printers with Cura, which involved hacking at the X3GWriter plugin, but was frankly a little hacky, and starts to cause problems when you update etc.

Happy printing!
Thank you for taking the time to write this tutorial!
I've followed the steps and Cura will now slice my STL and spit out an X3G file, but I'm having a problem.
When I start my print, the machine heats up and then starts along the printing path. The issue?
It doesn't extrude any filament. It seems like the motor is not running...
To troubleshoot I've use the "load filament" feature and printed other files sliced in the Makerbot software with no issues.
Any idea of what could be happening? Thanks!

Are you absolutely sure about that? This is normally only used for delta-style printers.
