Kisslicer and the skirt

Post by foshon »

Is it possible to get a continuous skirt like in Slic3r? I use a 5mm skirt on long/large prints, but have to use Slic3r to get it. I really don't care for the raft, with no perimeters it seems to curl as quickly as the print I am trying to help. Slic3r seems to implement it as an "enlarging" of the first layer by 5mm which works out perfectly for me.

I think it's called "brim" and already in the Kisslicer wishlists: http://kisslicer.com/forum/index.php?topic=361.30 http://kisslicer.com/forum/index.php?topic=163.0

Thank you. Do you know if it is in the current beta? I have tried several times to register on their forum, I never get the activation email.

I don't know what this means or what you want to say.

Again: Do you need 32 or 64 Bit?

I'm sorry, missed that 32 bit. That was meant for Mr. Hackney.

All of the RC2s are here: http://kisslicer.com/forum/index.php?topic=489.0

I am trying it out now. It has some new features too (italics):

EDIT 2013-03-25: updating to RC2
* Seam can now be randomized (Jitter) and the depth of the seam crossover can be modified.
* Fixed some tab-order issues
* Fixed some translation / menu / tooltip string update issues
* Added a delta speed limit (1st layer speed limit is increased by this each layer, so you can do gradual speed increases)
* Fixed a huge crowning bug! The speeds and widths should be sane now.
* G-code comments now wrap to stay within 62 characters
* removed some double quotes that were choking the translator

The seam randomizer is great! I missed that from Slic3r.
