Re: FF Cx - print beyond the print area?

One thing that's a bit wonky is if I try to use the center option http://www.oneman-press.com/temp/view.jpg it's centered....to something. the model isn't actually centered, it's offset. Compensating for that has been tricky. I'm not sure if that overhang would print out (which it should) or if S3D ...

FF Cx - print beyond the print area?

http://www.oneman-press.com/temp/print_area.jpg I'm nearly finished printing out all of the STL for a Trudgy Open RC car...outside of the chassis. I tried printing this on it's side but found the supports started to collapse and the whole thing was super brittle/fragile. What I really need to do wi...

Re: keep getting asked for activation code

I upgraded on Sunday, ran it right away with no problems. Today I went to go print something and also was asked (again) for the activation code. Once I entered it I received a message saying I had too many active licenses and to deactivate...however the software never initialized and there's no way ...

FlashForge x S3D will heat, won't print left nozzle

Hi, Since I purchased S3D, printing was always hit or miss over USB for the left nozzle. Right would work most of the time however the left might have worked 1-5% max...if ever. Frankly I can't remember the left nozzle ever printing. The software will heat up the nozzle, the bed when I select the le...

Re: Dual Extruder printing issues on FF Creator-x

So i opened up the factory file and saw the two processes listed - but when I went to view the settings both were for the left print extruder and not set for dual printing. Shouldn't this be set for FlashForge Creator Dual (Both Extruders) with one process set for the right extruder, one for the lef...

Re: Dual Extruder printing issues on FF Creator-x

When you loaded it into Simplfy3D, did you see the meshes offset in the preview window? The screenshot in the original post shows what I see when I load it up and it's clearly offset. I don't know why it does that but all of the dual extruder prints look like this. I'll see what happens when I try y...

Re: Dual Extruder printing issues on FF Creator-x

hilbert_cube1_support.stl hilbert_cube1.stl just the basic .stl that came with FlashForge Creator-X. The frog I DL'd from Thingiverse here http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:329436 - each of these would look fine in the initial Simplify window but go bonkers once it's in the preview window. I don't k...

Dual Extruder printing issues on FF Creator-x

Hello, so after doing a number of somewhat successful prints through Simplify3D I wanted to give the dual extruder a whirl to see how two colors would print out using ABS. I followed the "Printing With Multiple Extruders" tutorial however used first a dual-color model from Nervous Systems,...
