Backup Slicer's settings from G-CODE

Hi !

I've got a geeetech prusa i3 pro B which took me a while to obtain good results by configuring Slicer but few days ago my laptot crash and it was impossible to restore my files so that's why i've lost all the slicer settings.

As i still get some G-code files on the SD-CARD, does anyone know if it possible to get back the slicer's settings from a G-code file ? :D

Thanks in advance !

Hi,
Never did this before,i guess it's diffcult?
But you can have a try,open the .Gcode file in Repetier Host and click "Edit G-code" in tab "Print preview" to check the settings you configured for it.
And the first thing you should do is to understand what every line codes stand for,you may wanna read this:

I had a look on the G-code text but i guess it's impossible to understand which slicer setting make the difference just by comparing 2 G-code lines... It's more like a kind of mix between every settings. I guess...

The only solution could be an option on slicer which found every parameters by comparing the original .SLT file and the .GCO so this function probably doesn't exist :?

So next time i will save somewhere else the slicer settings ;)

If anyone can found a solution, it still could be interesting. Anyway, thanks for the answer !
