Thanks for pointing out these issues - this is an alpha version of the code and we are still in the process of debugging and insuring functionality. I'll give you an update on your bug reports as soon as I get the chance to look into them in detail.

Cheers,

It's a bit of a long shot as to whether this is the problem in your case, but it's worth noting that the file must be saved with a lowercase ".stl" file extension or the mesh fails. (Solidworks, for example, exports .stl files as ".STL", which only work in OpenWarp after they've been manually changed to ".stl")

Thanks Toby. I just triple checked and capitalization of the file extension was not my issue. It is something I'll have to look out for in the future though.
