Thread link on Kisslicer Refugee Camp Google Group thread

KISSlicer 1.4.x is the pre-release of the upcoming 1.5 version, and features:

• Multiple-material objects
  • KISSlicer now supports 4 extruders
  • If you have a multi-extruder machine (and a PRO key), you can now (hopefully) print a single object with multiple materials!
  • Selecting multiple files in the [Open] dialog will import them all as a single model
  • sub-meshes in a single STL file will also be recognized
  • clicking on the model tile will bring up the Extruder Mapping Window (do this before slicing!)
  • you can now set an X & Y offset for extruders 2-4.
    • I do not have a multi-head machine, so I can't test this yet!
• Improved translation support
  • there had been multiple controls where the translation did not get applied
  • there is still more to do here, notably the other windows
• Some bug fixes
  • various
• Some new bugs added
  • with multi-material objects, the loops and infill paths sometime don't print in the right order
  • already-sliced objects don't get 'reset' when you change the number of extruders in the machine, or the default model extruder
    • You can work around this by updating the extruder mapping window...even to the same values
  • other unknown bugs...this build is heavily untested, so please go easy on it and me! [8^)

This post should have the Win32 build attached. I will try to get some other versions out in a while, hopefully after some feedback so I'm not just compiling cross-platform versions of show-stopping bugs. [8^)
