But I hope other people eventually find it useful.I MAKE NO PROMISES THIS FIRMWARE WILL NOT BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN, BLOW YOUR PRINTER UP, AND EAT YOUR BABIES. Seriously, anything can go wrong, this is beta-beta right now, and you take your life into your OWN hands by using it; I won't be held responsible.If you do try it, I'd like to hear about any and all bugs! I think it's working as it should at this point, even if it still needs some more features.I will be checking back here for questions and comments.To get complete instructions, see the following:http://reprap.org/wiki/Sjfw***SINCE YOU MAY NOT BE FAMILIAR WITH ACCELERATED FIRMWARES: Last time I checked, which admittedly was not at all recently, Makerbot's firmwares still did not support acceleration and volumetric printing. Each move begins at the slower of the gcode feedrate or the minimum feedrate defined in the firmware config.h. It accelerates for the distance the config.h says, and then plateaus and decelerates an equal distance at the end of the move. If the move is too short, it accelerates up to a peak and back down. The top speed in either case is the /lesser/ of the feedrate in the firmware or the feedrate in the gcode. This means you can set your sf to a speed of 100, but if your firmware is set to a speed of 75, that's as fast as it'll go.There are different methods of accel; currently my firmware only uses an accel routine that will result in a serious curve. I'm told the accel should be a straight line. I think it's generally academic for the accels we are doing, but a long accel may have an exaggerated curve - you probably won't see this unless you switch up the firmware settings a lot.If you've never done volumetric using the "Dimension" plugin in SF40 and greater, then you'll need to brush up on that, too, but I can't think of anything informative to say that hasn't been said better elsewhere.
