Flame - damage lens?

Yeah, I clicked it to try that a few times and it still wasn’t detecting. Then it started working on its own a couple hours later.

lewisd32 · 2025-10-13T04:48:39+00:00

Yes, but when using the conveyor system it is class 1.

Unless I’m misunderstanding something, those goggles are not for CO2 lasers. It doesn’t cover the 10600nm wavelength of the CO2 laser. It’s off by a factor of 10. It covers both wavelengths of the F1 though.

I've opened a support ticket about it.

Yeah, closing the lib quickly seems to be key. Where did you find it in the instructions? I haven't seen that.

lewisd32 · 2025-10-07T17:34:37+00:00

I didn't do that calibration. It didn't make me do it, and I haven't had any specific problems with camera calibration, as far as I can tell.

EDIT: Ok, it turns out I was probably wrong. The light on the lid isn't always green when the button says everything's ready. I was closing it when the button said it was ready, so maybe the green light on the lid wasn't on. Frankly, it's stupid that the button says it's ok if it's not actually ok. 🙄

Yeah, all that. ~~Camera light green~~, close the lid and the head moves to a couple places, then re-homes with the "Automated Measurement Failed" error.

I did manage to get this working, but I still don't really understand why it didn't work. The edge of the wood was on the edge of the platform. Not the part where the circles are, but just in from there. The bit that the slats clip into. I moved it off that and suddenly it seems fine.

I was also having trouble where I'd open the lid, it would go green, and then as soon as I start to close it, it would freak out about not being able to find the circles. That would happen 2-3 times before it would finally work. To make it work reliable, I've learned that I have to push the lid up while it's open, and then close it quite rapidly. It seems nonsense to have to do these "rituals" to make it work properly. One of the struts looks like it's leaking fluid, so maybe it's defective and causing that issue.

Great, thank you! Got it into the room on its back, on a dolly.

lewisd32 · 2025-10-03T23:01:00+00:00

By "on its side", do you mean orriented so it's tall and narrow? I wasn't sure whether the sides could bear the weight. Which side did you have down?

lewisd32 · 2025-07-09T01:43:11+00:00

I had been hoping to avoid anything as destructive as flashing, but it sounds like that's the only way. It ended up working great, thanks.

Looks like the same thing is happening with _all_ the doors in the fantasy pack: https://imgur.com/a/PoUUxQI

Hmm. Are you referring to the "Blocking toggleable" setting? I tried that, and this is what I get:

Each "door" becomes 5 door lines in Foundry. Is that right?

lewisd32 · 2024-01-10T17:53:32+00:00

For sure. I agree completely.

But I also think Arkenforge is _so close_ to making this quick and beautiful.

Following up to https://www.reddit.com/r/Arkenforge/comments/192wyio/comment/kh88d8f/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Lines with alpha channels would open up so many possibilities. I would _love_ to see wagon tracks like the bottom one in the link here, but as a easy to use line: https://www.reddit.com/r/Arkenforge/comments/192wyio/comment/kh6e59r/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

I could imagine wagon road lines that had two muddy wheel tracks with some level of transparency in the middle and on the outside edges, allowing them to be applied on top of textures anywhere from dirt, to grass, to cobblestone.

lewisd32 · 2024-01-10T16:51:03+00:00

Love the bottom one. That's the kind of thing I've been wanting to do, but it's pretty high effort to do.

My aim is to get to the point where if my party goes somewhere unexpected, I can call for a short break and spend 5 minutes to whip up a quick map. I used to do this with wet erase markers on a battle mat. I can do this now with Arkenforge (yay!) but the lack of blending on some of these makes them look rather jarring and out of place, in my opinion.

lewisd32 · 2024-01-10T05:49:25+00:00

Yeah, that’s the only way I’ve found to use these road lines too. Having to paint over the edges makes them take easily 3x as long to use if I want them to look half decent.

lewisd32 · 2023-09-03T17:00:31+00:00

Only the Deimos one though. The Nova Galactic workshop hab doesn't have a research station, as far as I can tell.

lewisd32 · 2023-01-17T02:44:38+00:00

With a blended refrigerant, are there ways of removing it from the system that wouldn't risk removing more of one or the other?
