Attached are a few pictures of odd G code output I am getting from Kiss. One shows the object as it should look, then the other shows the G code as kiss is producing it. I'm not sure what is going on here, everything I slice with Kiss has the same issue. Has anyone else had something like this happen ?
Thanks!

Re: Kiss slicer weird output

What infill are you set at?
Re: Kiss slicer weird output
Do you mean the Kisslicer subforum on seemecnc?
It produced this exact output regardless of .1 infill or 1.0 infill.

Re: Kiss slicer weird output
you should share the .stl
Re: Kiss slicer weird output
I was referring to the actual kisslicer.com/forum. It seems pretty active if you have specific slicer issues with kisslicer, and it might get seen by the guy who codes it.

Re: Kiss slicer weird output
Have you run the model through netfabb?
KissSlicer is heavily dependent on a model being "well formed", more so than most other slicers, and a lot of thingiverse models are bad.

Re: Kiss slicer weird output
You say this happens to anything you slice using KISS, are you sure KISS settings are correct? For example, one common mistake I find people have is not setting their Firmware type properly in the Printer settings tab. By default it is set to "Bits for Bytes" or something like that, which is not the same gcode output as the one you actually want "5D Absolute E".

Re: Kiss slicer weird output
Thanks for all the replies. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:24238 This is the .stl I was using. The kiss is set to 5D absolute. I've been occupied with other stuff recently, and haven't had the time to test it. One thing I also noticed when I've been using Slic3r is that it always puts a raft under the object, even I don't have the " raft box" checked. This is annoying when trying to make thin prints that require a smooth bottom.

Re: Kiss slicer weird output
Are you printing with a brim? Depending on the model, it could be easy to confuse the two...One thing I also noticed when I've been using Slic3r is that it always puts a raft under the object, even I don't have the " raft box" checked.
Trust me, sir. I'm a wizard.
Re: Kiss slicer weird output
Hey,
The brim setting is turned off. Still not sure what the issue is. When I alter the settings on the raft, it makes no changes etc. Like for example if I change it to octagonal style of raft.
