Good work finding the issue, changing that settings makes my model slice without hanging. I'd upload the factory file but it's 10 MB.

I'm trying to slice a model but v4 is just hanging at "calculating infill" when i slice.

is there still a download for v3 available? this is frustrating, i need to print.

This thread solved the issue for me, but for the benefit of users on a mac, you will need to put your STL in the following directory: ~/Library/Application Support/Simplify3D/ (Open a finder window, then menu "Go" - "Go to folder", then enter the above path in the dialog and clic...

Thank you very much, that looks to be exactly the problem!

I have a replicator clone, and so the machine configuration wizard set me up with the machine model for the replicator bed, which is nice because I can see where my prints will end up. I recently changed the electronics in my printer for ramps+marlin, and so have reconfigured my machine setup in s3d...

If I remember correctly, it was only passing the -m option to specify the machine, as well as a file name. I am not sure, but I think that the ...

The bundled version of gpx has a bug which caps the HBP temperature to 120 degrees, even when set higher in simplify3d (and consequently, in the generated gcode). Can anyone (from simplify3d) say where the gpx came from? I know of 3 versions:- The original: https://github.com/whpthomas/GPX (which ha...
