Two Node.js scripts that help create precisely striped prints with a Mosaic Palette(+)
I'm still using Node.js 6.10.3, but it should work on newer versions of Node.
These scripts were created for a project, and I figured it can't hurt to share. These are largely untested, except with the prints I needed them for, so proceed/use with caution.
MSF Generator creates a basic msf file for use with the Mosaic Palette(+). It does not create a transition tower, so the stripe effect it generates is a bit unpredictable. Provided your machine is well calibrated, it should produce a closely accurate print.
Only supports Simplify3D generated G-code
###To use:
Copy config.example.json as config.js, modify for your printer/palette combo. Run the script against a gcode file.
cd /msfgenerator
cp config.example.js config.js
nano config.js
npm install
node index.js -i <input filename>G-code Modder allows you to post-process a G-code file with a specific pattern for up to 4 drives for use in Chroma, which can then be printed in multicolor using a Mosaic Palette+ (or any other 3D printer that supports multiple tools). This will allow you to have exactly placed stripes using a transition tower.
