Cura in Repetire -host

Thought I'd try the New Cura eng with no luck, I only really need it
for the plug-in option as there are a few parts that need the Zlift plugin.
Can't for the life of me get the plug-ins to work in the new Cura eng.

I can't seem to get the printer set up correctly in standalone Cura.
It overextrudes ( alot) won't home the axis or turn on the heaters.
I'm probably missing somthing that has to be added to the Gcode afrer slice but
I've been used to Repetire just working out of the box.

Can't find the setting to change nozzle size. Found everthing else under the sun
but nothing for that.
Is there a version out there that is not just for the ultimaker printers?

I don't see much here about Cura on here but I could just be missing it.
It would be great if there was a way to add plugins to Cura in Repetire-host

Finally found the previous versions of Cura on Utilimakers site. That was a chore in itself.
The feature I need in Repetire-Host is the plugins feature for Cura.
This one in particular, Zlift plugin for couple parts with long overhangs.

What build of Cura is in Repetire-Host now and wonder if new versions could be ported into it.
I really like using Repetire-host, The nice thing is it worked out of the box.

The host includes CuraEngine not Cura. That is a difference. CuraEngine is the slicer behind Cura. Cura Plugins are written for cura in Python while Repetier-Host is in C# and can not use these plugins.

Thanks for the info, I wasnt quite sure how it work but that explination makes sense.
I got a version of Cura to work for my printer and use Repetire to do the inital setup of the printer
before print.
Thanks for the great work on Repetire. It's my goto when all else fails me.
