Thanks - just pushed an update to the repo with new instructions. Hopefully this will make testing easier.

hey bud, this tech fizzled out hardcore like a year ago. maybe if the Voron Switchwire printer was as popular as the Ender 3 we could have seen this come to fruition in a timely manner

Thanks! Just had a brief look at your video and it looks excellent, will watch it in details!

Thanks a lot!

Thanks :) it was a lot of work but a lot of fun to do this video. Hoping to do more in the future!

why dont you draw vertical lines only, using z-buffer, very simple renderer engine, also for textures

sqrt (1+x^2) approximation of 1+x^2/2

ray casting (also for pre-baked lighting) engine would be nice

simple per pixel 3d dda ray cast to the pre-baked level plus monsters

if you only compare distances, the approximation algorithm gives relatively ordered results (if not accurate)

its nonplanar . . . can increase strength and print quality

Going faster isn't the point. It's to strengthen the print and because of it going on the curves, layer lines won't be visible on curved z axis surfaces

not drunk, genius

Same

Or both

any raw footage of yourworking project

Thanks! Right now this is a prototype and not very easy to use; instructions are on the github github.com/mfx-inria/curvislicer. In the long run we are planning an integration in IceSL but this will take some time.

Back again 2 years later 🤣 silly algorithm! 😋

Hi - after loading an stl, in the right bar click on "Orientation and scale" then "Z- up".

Ah, thanks; went back to S3D, though. Kept getting errors in IceSL like "malformed number in line 1" when trying to import anything.

Indeed, the UI is powered by the amazing Dear ImGui - we absolutely love it! github.com/ocornut/imgui/

Thanks - I hope you'll enjoy using IceSL! Latest info and downloads on shapeforge.loria.fr/icesl/

Hey. I'm interested in this program coming from openscad, but I'm kinda discouraged by the source code not being available... I'd really like to hack the source code to implement a lot of my own algorithms. Why is this closed source? Same for the slicer.

Hi Jeka - Thanks for trying IceSL! The fan behavior depends on the printer profile, and can be enabled. Which printer profile do you use?

I used profile from prusai3. My printer is FlyingBear P902, it's a core XY printer.

Will do, but we need some help (just answered your email). Also you can see all profiles and contribute new ones on github: github.com/shapeforge/icesl-printers

Hi - the source code of forge itself is not available, but the script of the example being shown here is: github.com/shapeforge/icesl-models/blob/master/uitweaks/iphone_case.lua

Hi - sorry to hear it crashed on this model. Can you share it with me so that I can analyze and fix the problem? Are you running the latest version (2.1.6) ? Thanks!

I downloaded it yesterday so I suppose I'm running 2.1.6, I uninstalled it since I couldn't use it :( There was no crash report or anything so I don't know what to share. I had uploaded a model made in sketchup with thin walls (0.4 mm) which loaded properly and everything, I could slice the model using the MakerBot2 settings but the slicer just came up with random spots, I filled in the "thin features" and "single pass" boxes, but same result, I changed from the MakerBot2 settings to prusa i3 and then it just closed down as soon as it finished slicing. A Gcode file was produced so it seams to have done something.

Could you send me the model you created with Sketchup? (STL format I assume?) One important thing about IceSL is that it expects watertight (closed) models with properly oriented faces. In sketchup it is unfortunately sometimes difficult to achieve this, and that would explain the problems. Nevertheless it should not close abruptly after slicing. Thanks!

I made sure the model was airtight, but to which email should I sent the STL files? :)

Please send it to sylvain DOT lefebvre AT inria DOT fr

Sorry it does not work on your PC. Maybe give a try to shapeforge.loria.fr/slicecrafter/ ? It is the same engine with much lower requirements (runs in the browser directly, e.g. Firefox or Chrome). Regarding slicing it is exactly the same, it however lacks the modeling abilities and the thickness optimizer, as these rely on GPU acceleration as well.

sylefeb yes we have try, but doesnot support delta printers, also the user interface always need me to scroll up down. Also i have try the gcode doesnot contain G28, and M104 to set temperature.

I'll try to help: which printer profile did you select in the interface? You can try for instance 'pharaoh_xd' (which is a delta). This will produce standard GCode with G28, M104, etc. Of course, beware that printer dimensions are different, so monitor the start of the print closely. Which printer do you use? Afaik most delta's don't require special GCode, the hard work is done by the firmware, translating xyz motions to delta tower motions.

Thx, we will try. We make 3D printer too, for living in fact :D :D, ua-cam.com/users/ryanniningvideos Delta is not same with cartesian because the center X,Y is 0,0, while other center is depend on bed dimension , 200x200, the center will be 100,100. For G28 and M104 and other is easy added before print. Will find better computer to test the offline software, for now only web based.

Very nice! If you'd like I can help you make a dedicated profile that we can include in the next release. Let me know. Correct about the center, the pharaoh_hd profile will center at 0,0. In IceSL this can be easily controlled with the printer export scripts.

We are still actively working on IceSL, a new version will be released soon!
