Hello, a new version is on-line.
It fixes some bugs, and I hope the LinuxCNC (aka still EMC) exporter is better now.

Did anybody manage to have it working under Linux? I am so curious about this... There is now a working Mac copy.

Hi iccha
I tried the last Blender Cam 0.3.0 on windows but it bombed on producing G code and the computer just hung. I haven"t been able to load Blender Cam on linux 12.04 Precise yet. So have not yet been able to test anything on LinuxCNC yet, but will give 0.4.0 a go in about two or three weeks time.

Hello, new version is out:

blendercam.blogspot.cz/2013/08/blender-cam-050.html

What is new:
  • Exact mode is now faster by around 25-30 %
  • support for text objects - they kind of worked in some situations but that was a coincidence! :) Now text is properly supported.
  • default threshold for optimisation was lowered, the new algorithm works better with that
  • Waterline with layers was fixed, now waterline works much more like in other CAM programs. It is however still experimental feature!
  • Drill paths now support transformations of the source curve object
  • The
re are not so many changes as usual, but I'm kind of running in summer-mode ;)

captain chaos:
please watch what size of object you input. the default cube in blender measures 2m, so if you test on that, it can run out of memory, because it's huge with the default settings. exact mode however should be able to deal with that too.
