Getting Incomplete Slicer Configuration detected

Incomplete Slicer Configuration detected Your slicer gcode settings are not up to date. Learn more about the RatOS 2.1 Slicer Configuration I copied and pasted the Cura specific slicer settings, but I still get this error message. Anyone know why. Also, shouldn't the skew profile also be in the printer settings in Cura?
Solution:
Because the "Incomplete Slicer Configuration" error is only triggered if TOTAL_LAYER_COUNT isn't passed to START_PRINT. Ie, your custom start gcode in your slicer profile isn't correct. The doc has everything you need.

No. https://github.com/HelgeKeck/RatOS/blob/documentation_v2.1/site/docs/configuration/macros.md#skew-profile [gcode_macro RatOS] variable_skew_profile: "my_skew_profile_name" It would help if you posted a screenshot of your Cura start gcode settings. Make sure to follow this: https://github.com/HelgeKeck/RatOS/blob/documentation_v2.1/site/docs/slicers.md

I just added the skew profile last night. But with or without it I get the same message I should also say that it does print, and it does a Dynamic mesh.

It's complaining because it's missing "Total layer count", i don't think the Cura slicer settings were ever completed for 2.1. @Helge Keck any idea what we do here? Short of saying "don't use Cura"? 😂

one sec just ignore that message in case you use cura cura is indeed not fully functional with ratos in any case, the layer numers are used in multiple ocassions but you can totally print with it

No problem. Thank you.

I think its also cos Cura doesn't fully use the firmware retract

No that doesn't matter. Firmware retraction isn't very widely used, most of us use the slicer's own retraction mechanisms. Firmware retraction just replaces the slicers own logic with G10/G11. There's nothing to "support" in that sense. Either it's used or it's not.

@miklschmidt I get Incomplete Slicer Configuration too, but I've set everything in PrusaSlicer2.8 mentioned in Helge's docs. I've been looking through my klippy.log for a hint as to what's wrong but found nothing. The only thing I see in PrusaSlicer is it shows RatRig, ver: 2.0.2 instead of 2.1.0. Maybe that doesn't matter. But where did you see the missing Total Layer Count in renatojd2010's case?

you need to copy that entire thing (use the icon button to the right)

Yup. Somehow my Control-C was not the same as the copy code button. Sorry to bother you, but thanks!
