How to use this plugin in Elegoo Neptunne 3 Plus

halbik commented 1 year ago

What motherboard and screen does your printer have?

finict commented 1 year ago

Due to ELEGOO's proprietary encoding, a specific binary file is required to use the preview Check my fork which works with latest Cura https://github.com/finict/mks-wifi-plugin-N3

It looks like Elegoo uses the same encoding as Artillery (Sidewinder X3, etc). After a quick search, I found that this encoding can be achieved by a public .py version of the same lib. We will add support for both printer manufacturers in next plugin release.

Also for Elegoo users, I can suggest to take a look on https://github.com/Molodos/ElegooNeptuneThumbnails plugin.
