Slic3r 1.0.0RC1

Hello!

First off, sorry for not being very present in this forum. I try to read everything and work on the issues, but I rarely have time to answer and partecipate in the threads. I'm very focused on the documented issues that are reported through the GitHub issue tracker. Still, thank you for your testing and reporting work, it's very valuable.

A new version is out, with lots of new features that you can read at [slic3r.org]

I install the new version on windows.
But it says the modul for the opengl is missing and need to install that.
But where do I find that?

Same problem here with 64 bit download..
I have Windows 7 64 bit and Nvidia with latest driverupdate.
Slic3R says when 3dview is pressed that another built with OpenGL is needed.

However if I download and run 32 bit version (x86) it looks like it is working at least with 3d view, I have not seriously tested otherwise.

Oki..

Hope it will be fixed soon then :-)

Have you tried with a fresh install (deleted your old slic3r config folder)? My slic3r x64 always crashed on win7 64bit while 32bit version worked. After I deleted (actually I renamed it) the folder with the old .ini-files it worked.

re Noob..
ver 9.10b was working fine with Win7/64 and so does ver 1.0.RC, the only thing found sofar, was the above mentionend when view button was pressed, which of course is a dum thing for a new feature.
Otherwise very fine program and lots of new things to verify, so 3d view is maybe not the big thing in present form.
Thankyou to all developers for still making progress.

Hi for W7 X64 opengl issue download this files : [files.transmissionzero.co.uk] take the freeglut-MinGW-2.8.1-1.mp.zip
See Here
Extract, go to folder : bin > X64
Copy freeglut.dll
Go in slic3r folder > dll
And replace the freeglut.dll

Works for me.....

I get this : 403 - Forbidden
when I try that link.

I edit the link...it's ok?

No I can see the folder, but the file is not there ;-)

Thanks.. I can see the file now and I download it :-)

That did the trick, thankyou so much

Hey there, I am having this same problem, But when I click the link, I get the 403 - Forbidden error.

Hi, don't know why the link give a 403 error, or why the file is delete...
See here for DL the zip file "freeglut 2.8.1 MinGW Package" [www.transmissionzero.co.uk]

at the end it work !

but it is only to see the STL file, not realy useful ! i thought it was a way to look at the gcode paths

My thanks to djamuka.

Simply replacing his freeglut.dll in the dll folder got the view option to work

FYI I am using an AMD FirePro V4900 with a Windows 7 Pro system

Hi, I also had the same problem and have now been dealt with this download: freeglut.dll_242 KB from Djamuka, thank you.

I moved over to RC1 and then RC2 to fix other issues I was having only to find that they have introduced problems that make Slic3r useless to me. I find that If I print big things the slic3r gets confused and thinks that holes are things and turns the object inside out. From the commits, I can see that these issues have been observed and fixed but I can't build slic3r from github to try this out. I've rasied an issue and others have raised their own and linked them to mine but I can't see Sound working them. How is he building and delivering RC1 and RC2 when we can't build from github stable or master?

I'm getting a little frustrated as I don't understand cpan and it appears that this is where the build issues are as it's downloading and building stuff from cpan but the tests fail. Am I just using the wrong version of cpan? is that likely?
