Hi Everyone,
Recenty upgraded to Gsender 1.4.11. Every now and then I like to use the Surfacing Tool to flatten a surface to a specific height. After launching the tool and setting it up I went to start the job like I always do using my Game Controllers ‘X’ button. This time nothing happened though. It was just working before this. Didn’t matter if I closed Gsender and restarted it . . . button’s still not working. Then I noticed the ‘B’ button that I use for stopping the machine wasn’t working either. I know it has worked before on previous versions without issue but it’s not a tool that I use that often so can’t say how long ago it was.
After several attempts at trying to figure this out I looked in the AppData\Roaming\gSender directory and ended up deleting the four Cache directories then restarted Gsender. All working again! So, I thought maybe something in one of those directories was causing the problem. In the end it was the ‘Code Cache’ directory. Tried it on two different systems (Windows 10 and Windows 11) with the same results. So now I know how to fix the problem to get it working again by just deleting this directory. Bit of a hassle and would just like to be able to use the Surfacing tool without having go through all this.
By the way the ‘Start’ and ‘Stop’ buttons in Gsender were still working. Each of my systems both use GRBL controllers and one of the game controllers is a Logitech F710 on the Windows 10 system and an Xbox on Windows 11.
Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this if using one of these game controllers?
