Slicing Fails Cura 4.9.1 AppImage #2

Open imonlinux opened 3 years ago

imonlinux commented 3 years ago

First I want to thank you for taking the time to identify these files and publishing them. Work that EleGoo should have already done.

I have had success with the 4.8 AppImage version of Cura with these dots included. When I try with the 4.9.1 AppImage version, I get the following errors in my log and the model does not get sliced.

Hi @imonlinux , thanks for your words and for having reported your problem. I manage Cura with pacman and had exactly the same problem with the last update, so I suppose it's not a problem of this specific package management, but it should be a problem of compatibility between the dots and the new version of the software. I wish I had the time to solve this problem, but I really didn't touch my printer in the last weeks so I didn't and I cannot suggest you a solution. By the way, I will share anything if I found out what exactly is the problem

I too have hit this issue. Will try to investigate.

From a fresh install I added a new non-networked Creality Ender 3 (since apparently Neptune 2 is a clone of) and observed the changes in the configuration.

These files were created / used for Creality:

$ find . -iname '*creality*'
./extruders/creality_base_extruder_0+%232.extruder.cfg
./machine_instances/Creality+Ender-3.global.cfg
./definition_changes/Creality+Ender-3_settings.inst.cfg
./definition_changes/creality_base_extruder_0+%232_settings.inst.cfg
./user/Creality+Ender-3_user.inst.cfg
./user/creality_base_extruder_0+%232_user.inst.cfg

I'll see then what is different from the ones hosted at this repo.

I ended up going with 4.7 so I could quickly test my printer, but I'll be back with a fix! I refuse to use old Cura software.
