It would be really nice if this would export a 3MF to be able to bring into the popular slicers, with the appropriate models separated so that it was easy to assign colors - for people who own an AMS or Prusa MMU. Since the AMS and Prusa MMU are the most popular, and based on PrusaSlicer, I'd probably set up a project there, export it - and then replicate what PrusaSlicer exports, and make it so HueForge exports something similar. That would make the process much easier and faster.
The issue here is that 3mf is an open standard and all the slicers do it differently and accept a different subset of features, so this is something I'd like to do, but the work is actually pretty significant to support all the options.
I feel l like it's actually easier to provide multiple STLs that are easy to color by object than 3mfs right now.
Understandable. Even just providing separate STLs that can be imported as a group will make the setup-side infinitely easier as most slicers will see that it's a multi-color part and offer to group them together automatically. Thanks! Just knowing that this is on your list of goals is good enough for me to be happy :)
Have to admit this is low priority because it isn't painted and I don't know that this would give a good result. I think splitting into parts that are colored might make more sense.

Thanks for the hard work! Im stoked to set up now.
Thanks for the update. Can we get a obj export with color texture?
