[Plugin] SliceModeler v1.3 released!
-
Thanks for the response. That is what I was doing. Top down view zoomed in. It worked okay. It just took time to scoot to each piece to print. I just was looking for a simplar way. I was able to get it doing the same method you stated, just time consuming.
Now if only I could find a CNC shop!

TIG, have you considered updating your script to work like the commercial one so this guy will have a hard time selling it?
it pisses me off everytime i see this!

Well I don't want to play the police here when TIG himself doesn't, but...
I was doing some research prior to writing a post about TIG's Slicer in Visual Index of Ruby Scripts, and then I naturally came to realize the existence of this script.
One thing really bothered me about this script is not the fact that asteronimo is trying to make money out of it (ok, he is not selling the script, but he is asking donations for his tweaks I understand), but the fact he erased TIG's copyright from the script and replaced with his own name.
Don't really know what his intentions are, but I just have to let you guys know something very fishy is taking place here. -
'SliceModeler' isn't the same as my 'Slicer'. It is heavily based on it, but it makes 'slots' too etc to assemble the model. I even helped him recode parts of it so that it'd work !
Whilst it would be nice have my original input recognised we can't do much about it... I certainly don't want to kick up a fuss. However, if some of you want to write to the author and suggest a little more 'politeness' in his header then please do so... If I 'borrow' code I try and add something like (c) TIG... Parts of the code based on XXXX by YYYY.

I PMed him. Let's see how he reacts to it, if he ever reads my PM though...

"You can download the latest version of the script from your Account page when your payment has been received."by asteronimo
Oops, I was wrong. He IS selling the script.

AMAZING!! I look so long for automatic plug like this one... Until now i do it manual...
I have a suggestion- to add option to make only one axis process, I mean - to be able to complete the plugin without 'cancel' it in the middle so the result will be like that below.. (I did it with multi push-pull, But I had to explode it and it wasn't flatten....)
Anyway, great job.
You are amazing, guys!!

You can download it free from this site. But I've never heard of v1.4. -
The 'free' v1.3 is here, in the first post in this thread. However, v1.4 is only available here http://www.public-art-international.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/200/language/en [which is also linked on that page] - where you are 'encouraged' to make a donation...
-
"encouraged"? you can't download without a donation!
unless someone has a copy of 1.4 they'd like to post here?
-
Well, if it is "sold" for a compulsory donation there, please, do NOT upload a "pirated" version here. Everyone has the right to sell a plugin and define where it can be downloaded from.
-
You're right, but in this way you don't make a donation you buy it and the donation is misleading.
Also i heard about long time replies from the developer after users have bought it.
Anyway it was free before the link passed away.
-
Why not just use the free v1.3 ? If you don't want to get v1.4. I don't know what extra functionality you get with it by 'giving' a donation [i.e. payment].
OR if you don't need the slot-making capability then just use my 'Slicer' Tool - that has always been free and on which SliceModeller is heavily* based [*i.e. its author has just copied most of my code verbatim, I even advised during the early stages, not realising it'd become 'commercialised'... but am I bitter ? ] -
-
Tig, why not add slotting to yours?
i'm sure a lot of users including myself would very much appreciate it, both for the usefulness and for the irony
-
Hi Tig, I need the slots and I'm using the 1.3.
I also installed your plugin.Thanks for your works!
Best

Hello guys, Im having the same issues, I;m on version 1.4
mostly of the time i got "uncompleted slices", other time it seems working but at the end instead of having the slice numbered and cutted, I just have a vertical plane intersacating one of the Y slice.
ANyone had encountered the same problems? or do you know some other alternative to slice with sketchup (or cinema 4d)?
Thanks and all the Best,
/m
