Creality Print Linux V4.3.8.6991 missing CR-PLa Carbon_1.75 profile #187

The latest version of Creality Print available for Linux - V4.3.8.6991 is missing the material CR-PLA Carbon_1.75 profile.

In the previous version, the material is there and available to choose . It's missing on the last version.

Please add it or, better yet, RELEASE A NEW LINUX VERSION - TO BE IN SYNC WITH MAC AND WINDOWS.

Creality Print 5.0.3 works fine on my 24.04 Kubuntu with wine. Actually, it works better than the 4.3.8 Linux AppImage version (because this one crashes eventually). It doesn't solve your problem of the missing material on your version but you could give it a try

thank you @igorcstab ! That's a nice workaround, but I refuse to use windows app on my Linux. Believe me, I've done it for a long time when alternatives were not around.
On this case is just Creality is neglecting its Linux user base. If we all start using wine to run the Creality Print, they won't bother releasing a new Linux version. It's just a mater of principle. Nothing else. Thank you for your input .

It was BambuStudio that neglected Linux users. Also, they messed up the entire Profile inheritance model and forced you into one-off compatibility in the profiles. In short, Bambu only has a single nozzle per machine, so they didn't care about any of the compatiblity - and hardcoded the nozzle stuff. They also don't care about tool changers, idex, etc.

Orca branched off of that poor codebase and have been trying to make it better. But, it's still has its based on the same issues they introduced in BambuStudio. There are Linux builds of Orca, but they have lots of issues...

CrealitySlicer seems to be a fork of Orca (I am seeing a lot of the same limitations from BambuSlicer here). With some PrusaSlicer, SuperSlicer, and ongoing Orca features copied over as they are released.

Looks pretty though.
