Saving and using CWS files

Postby Finhead » Fri Jun 20, 2014 6:02 pm

Steve Posted this in your other thread but figured it would be best to have it's own thread.

Is the CWS file now able to be saved off after slicing etc or just plating with supports and then opened on another PC for printing? I have a slower dedicated PC running the printer and would be great to slice up and have it all ready on my main PC.

My printer just finished a print so I was able to test this out quickly.
The .cws file does open on the other PC and I see the STL file plated as I had it and the Gcode comes up but the projection images do not come up when opening the file. I tried both option in the "Image slice Export options" tab on two different files. Neither will open the image files from the saved off .cws file. I get a sub directory with the second option but I can't seem to see a way to open this in CW.

Any work around on this or is it just not working at this point?

I think i've solved this issue, Steve i've moved the GC.Collect() to a different location and only do a GC.Collect during a Blank image.

cw is humming like a nice kitten again... weeeee

cheers,

Hi,

Can someone please explain how to create a print file? I've tried creating a cws file with new software but I keep getting an error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I think the model I'm trying to print (around 70 Mb) is too big for my computer and is the cause of the layer lines I'm getting, so I'd like to try saving it to a file first.

Just wait a week or so, I'm getting ready to release a newer version with better CWS file support.
