Hi, I see you have done a great work, why wouldn't you add the support for this printer directly into Marlin ? You would have less maintenance to do.

Hello atsju, thanks for the credit. You are right and I thought about this when I created this repo last year.

The main reason why I haven't done this is because I am not realy a programmer and I don't know how to contribute in Github to other projects. As I haven't changed just the configuration and configuration_adv I am not sure how to give this examples to the great contributers of marlin. The second reason is, that the interest from others into these configs is realy small. I have only 42 views from 7 visitors, so I thought the effort isn't worth it. And the third reason is, that I for myself don't print that much, so I don't follow every new marlin change. I just make upgrades for fun and when I have the time. With "official" marlin support I thought I would have to give the community more maintanance.

Anyhow, if you are interessted into merging my configurations into official marlin and can help me with that. I would do it. I like marlin and this would be my thank you to these great people.

@Alexoko12 Do you happen to have access to the DGUS / DWIN_SET source files? I would love to be able to edit the screen menus.

Hey, sorry I haven't. I got the lootmax_pic and font folder only once when Lotmaxx Support themselves send me a software update, because I had an issue I can't even remember anymore. ^^ Maybe you can ask them in the facebook group or via email.

Thank you for responding!

I will add a link to your repo from my sc-10 shark V2 project. Just in case someone is looking for this one.
