Sailfish 7.7 doesn't see 4.0 x3g files

Evidently V4.0 writes a new .x3g format which Sailfish 7.7 (Flashforge Creator Pro) doesn't see. Is there a way to get back to the last build of V3?

I have Sailfish 7.7 on my printer and it sees the x3g files just fine. Are you sure you are copying the correct file onto the SD card? Is is possible there is a problem with the SD card or the card reader?

Mine is working also. Make sure to give it plenty of time to write the files.

Keep file names short, and no special characters.

Note for the OP....

The gpx.exe utility file is exactly the same file (ie same creation date/time and file size) as the file in all releases back to v3.0.1....so I can't see how a new format of file can be being written in vv4 of S3D.

Make backups but try copying the old gpx.ini from the old S3D folder into the new v4 folder,
