JBFUK: You did nothing wrong. It is Simplify3D that behaves like this. And it makes me crazy too. I absolutely don't like the way it manages different filaments. The only thing that is being modified is temperature settings. Just one example: If you have a filament with a very small diameter, e.g. 1...

Thanks a lot for your explanations SimpleScott. They helped me and I'll try the FFF export and will tweak the XML file. I've read about this in the other mentioned thread and thought - it can't be true that such a complicated way is really necessary. I've used Mattercontrol in the past and felt that...

I have the same issues as Helmi: I don't understand the UI with profiles and filaments. I just don't get the philosophy behind it it confuses me as well I've watched several tutorials but am still confused. What and where is the logic behind Simplify 3D 1. If I change from Material A (ABS for exampl...

In my Communication window in Simplify 3D I'm getting a "READ: wait" message every second, even nothing happens. How can I suppress this? Turning off verbose logging basically works, but then I don't see anymore any text. READ: wait READ: wait READ: wait READ: wait READ: wait READ: wait RE...

I have some strange phenomena on my Rostock Max V2 - and I don't know what happens here: I want to print out the venus box I've downloaded from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1559232 When printing the part that is called OUTDOOR, I keep getting some strange pattern that looks like under extrusion ...

There's probably a dozen other threads on this forum that answer this same questions, so I won't bother going into too much detail here, but yes, if you increase the extrusion width, it will extrude more plastic. So if you set the width to 0.8mm instead of 0.4mm, it will extrude twice as much plast...

Sorry - my fault. All ok now. My internet connection blocked dropbox contents. Now ok !

Thanks a lot for this app - I'll sure try it!

DarthRevan, the Mac link seems to be broken again. Could you upload it somewhere else?

Thanks a lot!!

Interesting question. What does technically exactly happens when setting a larger extrusion width? Just more extrusion %?

Johncoffee

Well - I also agree and don't agree :-) When I store a new material like e.g. "PLA green" or "PLA red" and at the same time I change filament diameters accordingly. They do not get stored as they should. So one could call it a bug, no? The parameters for a filament should definit...
