Using Slic3r GCode through ReplicatorG

Thank you for helping!

I am using The Replicator Firware Version 7.5 on my 3D printer. In doing so it only prints .x3g files. So far the only program I found to exporter .x3g is Replicatorg.

The bad thing about Replicatorg is I do not like the default Gcode generator (Skeinforge), it does have a slic3r option but the slic3r option is really generic and an older version so it is missing some settings I would like to use. I would rather use slic3r alone and export the gcode into Replicatorg to generate a .x3g file.

I have tried this a few times and each time my machine begins extruding a lot of material and does not move it just sits in one place. I figure its because the gcode it generates is not compatible with replicatorg.

I wanted to see if anyone had some suggestions.

The problem with closed source machines (non reprap) is that people in this reprap forum we be of little help. When you buy closed source they are not easy to go out and use the software the rest of the world does.
