Parametric Model Maker - Request Timeout

Request timeout. Please simplify the source or attempt the request again

So I’m trying to use my valid OpenSCAD model in the Parametric Model Maker, but it keeps timing out. Even leveraging OpenSCAD code that I already have uploaded within MakerWorld that worked previously results in the same error.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

There are two reasons that this error is typically experienced.

  1. Do what it says.

If your model is complicated, it may simply be generating too many triangles in the model for it to process.

Simplify the source code by using lower settings for things like $fn.

  1. The servers may be busy.

They may be processing so many requests that they are needing to limit the activity.

Give it a few minutes, like 20 and try again.

same problem here for more then 3 hours with simple keychain

Same problem here, I’ve been waiting for over 3 hours to resolve it; this problem is occurring with any model.

5

Same problem here with multiple and simple models.

Yes I am also. I’ve tried multiple models and the are all very simple.

I created a ticket and enclosed a screenshot of the timeout.

For next time, you can add all of that in the same post.

If you wish to add it later, you can edit the first entry.

If someone adds something afterwards, create a new one.

Same problem here for a couple of hours. Back end service seems to be broken. Can’t do anything with any parametric models :frowning:

I have tried Firefox and Chrome. I have tried deleting cache and cookies. Still same issue.

Same here! Tried different model, different browser, incognito mode, etc. Nothing works. The guys need to check what is wrong under the hood. Thanks in advance.

probably an issue on their end seeing the comments here. I tried multiple of my openscad models i’ve created and have published and am receiving the exact same error. Tried on my hotspot, bypassing my ISP, different computer, browsers, same result every time.

Same issue here, including models I have already used a few days ago!

Same problem. Been trying to use some simple text generators.

Working as of 4:42PM. Not sure why :person_shrugging: . Before it wasn’t even generating the default settings when the parametric model tab opened.

Simple test to see if it’s the site or your model, run:

cube([10,10,10]);

If it doesn’t generate that you know its the site that’s the issue.
