Hi All Just new to 3d printing, bought a new 3d printer (just a generic not popular printer its @ edge3d.net) anyway the software it come with was old. Basically it had replicatorg 029 and skienforge 35. So i have decided to update to RepG 040 and Sforge 50. It worked at first but now I have an issue were when I build the Gcode it doesn't load it into repg "gcode" window, it creates a gcode file with export postfix but that file doesnt include start and end gcode it also has standard gcode file that has nothing in it except commented heading. Seems quite wierd I have moved across profile and xml file for machine from old repG and it connects fine heats up and all axis work in control panel. Does anyone have suggestions what is happening here. I have included a screen shot of skeinforge export settings after build and gcode files (cant include repG log or export.gcode as to big). Replicator appears to show error in log when i build as follows [17:08:05] gcode sourcereplicatorg.app.gcode.MutableGCodeSource@11af7bb [17:08:05] printomatic 5D sf other [17:08:05] Beginning toolpath generation.

There are several applications like Pronterface that I don't know. There is no need for an XML info file which seems to be a Replicatorg requirement only.]]> François Delègue Skeinforge Mon, 26 Aug 2013 04:31:22 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239685#msg-239685 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239685#msg-239685 prorip Skeinforge Sun, 25 Aug 2013 22:24:07 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239543#msg-239543 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239543#msg-239543
> but that file doesnt include start and end gcode

end & start files names are set into Alteration plugin.

They must be in your home skeinforge directory:
your home/.skeinforge/alterations/start.gcode
your home/.skeinforge/alterations/end.gcode

You could try to directly use Skeinforge without Replicatorg's intermediate. Also it should be better to use anything else than Replicatorg… (outdated and more or less obscure).]]> François Delègue Skeinforge Sun, 25 Aug 2013 10:29:20 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239409#msg-239409 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?154,239409,239409#msg-239409 Just new to 3d printing, bought a new 3d printer (just a generic not popular printer its @ edge3d.net) anyway the software it come with was old.
