A plugin for OctoPrint used to convert G0/G1 commands to G2/G3 commands. Reduce the size of your gcode files, and reduce number of gcodes per second sent to your printer.
At long last a new RC of ArcWelder is available! I've worked out a bunch of difficult enhancements, and just need some feedback before I push to live. I'm absolutely committed to getting the final release of 1.1.0 out before the new year.
Please post any feedback in the discussion for this release.
This version fixes a few issues found in 1.1.0rc1, and includes support for UltiGCode. I want to REALLY encourage anyone reading this to take a few minutes to provide feedback here. I am especially interested in knowing who has installed this successfully, and if you have successfully printed a welded file. I also want to hear about the good, the bad, and the ugly. I really need some feedback so I know when this is stable enough to push to master. It's getting REALLY close now. Were it not for a substantial bugfix in the core ArcWelderLib, I would have already done this.

, then that line is preserved, and the Arc Welder header will go under it. Solves this issue in the ArcWelderLib repo.This release contains all of the enhancements from the last devel rc, plus some extras from the latest ArcWelderLib release.

This is not an issue with the plugin, but some printers/firmwares have trouble printing with G2/G3. I am not able to fix these via modifications to the plugin, unfortunately, but keep an eye on the issues for updates. I've been actively working on getting fixes for these problems, though there is currently no silver bullet.
This version has a couple of bugfixes and enhancements, but nothing too major. The biggest change is a fix to the software update process. I've been having some trouble with the version number compare, but I believe it was due to me not including the master branch in the rc/devel and rc/maintenance channels. I had implemented a more sophisticated version check, but it wasn't working 100% for various technical reasons, so it was removed. You will likely have to manually update to this version unfortunately, due to the issues with the software update check.
This version has several bug fixes and improvements, and is getting close to a release candidate. I'm still working on resolving some of the firmware issues people have been experiencing. See the latest readme.md for more info.
