    In v7.8 you can’t set a custom diameter makeing it imposibile to use if your coding is not strong 😀 or you dont have a Makelangelo machine…

    Please tell me what steps you are taking to set a custom diameter. I just retested changing the pen settings, they save and load OK.

    I see what Vlad is saying. If I just open the software without the machine attached, there’s no sign of a pulley diameter setting in the machine tab. I haven’t checked yet to see if a field appears when the machine is connected.

    Aaah…. The new D10 system makes sure that the software knows which hardware model is connected.
    V2 and V3 Makelangelos only have one pulley size, so I hid the option. Less settings to confuse users.
    It didn’t cross my mind to add a “custom” machine where every setting can be changed. Your custom machine would have to report D10 V0.

    Master branch of the github project now has a Makelangelo (custom) which allows all settings to be adjusted.

    Hi Dan, is it possible for you to put a jar of the branch on github (maybe it’s there someplace and I don’t see it?)

    Thanks!

    You could follow the steps in the github wiki and then compile it for yourself. After the first roughness it’s as easy as git update, run latest. And I mean latest nightly build, as fast as anyone can check in the changes. If you’re brave enough to build a custom machine, the next logical step is to participate in the software development.
