blender to gcode :: mGcodeGenerator

worked again on the 3d z_buff.
Think I could improve behaviour.

lezdep , take a look there:
www.rab3d.com/tutorial_started.html


.. I did a few test on cnc at work with both script and the cnc/mach3 did what it should , no weird code where add .I`ve only tested 3D .

I do not write or even understand python script and the cnc world is pretty new to me... just to let you know that I wont be able to help your precious work untill i do my homework and study a bit more. Testing is all i could do ...for now! Maybe you got a link to someplace where I could start learning python and eventualy help! As I am a bit mixed up in my poor knowledge of cnc ,blender terms & function , I just dont want to take your time to teach those to the newbie I am!!! so I will be back when i will be shure
that I got precise terms for precise questions!!

Time is precious for everybody .
Keep it alive!!!

the trouble with z_buff is probably not visible on the first look.

And you will find it only in finer resolution. Compared in attached image is the original toolpath in black and the path of my modified script highlighted with improved behaviour.

Python itself you will find here.

The blender specific parts of the libraries and interfaces, you will find here.

And thanks for your link!

That would be awesome!

I love Blender and have been using it for a few years. Keep at it!
I really dislike 2.49, I hope you get it to 2.5 soon

new release, new functions:
- pockets
- work manager

I stumbled on your project and it looks like a good and more importantly open solution to peoples CAM needs. So I wanted to test it out, but I'm getting tons of indentation errors. Is this due to my version of python?

edit: problem solved I just needed to install python 2.5.2 for some reason.. I think.

Thanks

This blender set up looks awesome. Hope to get involved but have to learn python and blender. I think you are to something that has so much potential!!!
