Hi,

I always get the following error when slicing (different objects)

"Something went wrong during slicing"

Log:

File \\st-kai01\users\Alex.Kaiser\Ultimaker\Motorsense.stl is being chain exported.

Error only occurs on Win7 x64 - not on my Win7 x86

Can anyone help me?

best regards

    Sorry for my late reply.

    The problem still exists. I copied the fully functional cura_rc4 directory from my Win7 x86 notebook to my Win7 x64 PC. When I'm slicing the same part I get the "ValueError: invalid literal for float()" error

    ?

    best regards

    Did you try putting in a newer version of PyPy as I suggested in my previous post?

    Ok. Odd.

    How comfortable would you feel with hacking some debug prints into the code?

    Cool.

    As the bug happens in "skirt.py", in the function "parseLine". Could you add a debug print statement there? A simple "print line" on line 285 should do it. You need proper indentation (2 tabs in front) or else it won't work and give even more errors.

    This will produce a shitload of output, but the final print line before the error might give some light on this problem.

    It always happens in different modules:

    cool.py, dwindle.py ...

    That sounds more like a problem with pypy then the actual python code. Could you try renaming the pypy directory, this should make Cura switch back to python for slicing.

    I have done a lot of test-slices now.

    What I can say:

    *) Python is OK

    *) The "invalid literal for float()" exceptions occure in different modules.

    *) As you can see below there is always a "special" charakter included in the string-value

    Odd, could be some strange Win7 64bit PyPy error, or a problem with the memory of your PC (do you have other programs that crash strangely?)

    Perhaps you entered a "," instead a "." in a inputbox.

    I got similar errors with invalid float value...
