Blender addon for sending models to an OctoPrint server
- OctoPrint development version with Cura support enabled
- Blender 2.70 (probably works with older versions as well)
- Add the octoblend-folder to your addons directory. Detailed instructions can be found here
- Start blender with a fresh scene
- Open the user preferences and search for octoblend in the addons tab
- Enable the addon and configure server name and api key for OctoPrint
- Save user preferences
- Select an object
- Run the "Send to OctoPrint" operator (just hit spacebar and search for "octo")
- Object is exported in world-space coordinates
- 1 blender unit = 1 mm
- Uploaded file will be named after the active object.
On windows, Blender shows an error dialog when loading the addon the first time each session. This is a known bug, and will be resolved in upcoming releases of Blender. Just ignore the error. It should work anyway.
