Gordon,
Can you please upload the Simplify3D configuration settings for the gMax? Specifically, for the dual Extruder XT but all models/versions are needed of course.
You mentioned in the blog post that you guys have had great results using Simplify3D so I purchased a copy today but can't get the printer to print a gCode file generated from it. No problems with Slicer though
gMax is listed as a supported printer on Simplify3D's web site but when you install the software, gMax printers are not listed in the known printers drop down list box and you are forced to choose "other". (understandable - gMax is a new addition since their last build) So I installed the software using "other" as the printer and then used the gMax Slicer settings as the basis for the Simplify3D settings. When I go to print a file that I outputted from Simplify3D the printer starts the heaters and they get to temp but the print never starts. I copied the start and end gcode from slicer and pasted them into the respective script sections in Simplify 3D but that didn't work. The LCD just shows "heating" and you can see the thermistors registering different temps (+/-2c) after the target temp is reached but the print doesn't start.
You said videos are coming but in the interim, the config files identical to what the gCreate team has been successful with would be a big help.
Thanks,
Larry
