[OK] Filling holes whereas I don't want it

Hi,

I have some issue with a print with Simplify.

I want to print this file : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2017614/#made

I dont understand why, when i simulate the print, the software adds layers that I dont want, and fills all the whole.

Have some idea?

There is the screenshot of the simulation

Same issue as this: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7008

And the same solution will apply....

It's probably an issue with the original STL file. Did you try running the repair checks in S3D to see if it found non-manifold or self-intersecting surfaces? If so, you need to repair the model first.

Ok, that's weird. Be repairing it wasn't as i wanted. I downloaded agin the stl, i reopened it, and this time all was right. :shock:
