Cura 5.1 and Siemens NX plugin

[luiznunes 0]

Hi,

 

I have been using Cura since 3 years now and I found it amazing.

 

Thanks for that.

 

But now, with Cura 5, I cannot find the Siemens NX plugin.

 

What am I missing?

 

Now, I am back to 4.5 because of that...

 

anyone can help me, please?

There's not a lot I can help you with, but I can point you to the repo for this plugin: https://github.com/Ultimaker/cura-siemensnx-plugin

 

I even tried to debug (see the issues section) it for Cura 5.x but ultimately failed at installing the corrected file. Should be an easy fix since I suppose the new folder structure of new cura is the culprit... but who knows.

The NX interface was (is using) a NX Vb script to detect the last Cura Release . And this script is searching in the registry key 

Const strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"  

 

 but Cura 5.X doesn't use anymore this WOW6432Node  folder. Have you try to modify "SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall"  into "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" ?

As far as I remember, this is about what I've done to the script. Here's the issue I raised and you can test the attached file im my post: https://github.com/Ultimaker/cura-siemensnx-plugin/issues/6

 

Unfortunately my programming skills are next to non-existent and I don't know how to install it, so I can't tell if this fix really helps.
