Is there a 'Simple' version of Simplify?

Using a FFCP Dual.

I was hoping this software was going to be more like ReplicatorG but smarter. I've been fighting with Simplify3D for two days trying to just get a simple print out of it. No matter what I do I can't get any sort of useable support to print, I have no clue what size anything is on the virtual build plate. I scale the object but the calculated properties don't change, I can't manually type in object size dimensions (which would be nice).

And for some reason I can knock a print out of ReplicatorG in seconds - for free - that's fantastic, but with Simplify I can't get past the first few layers without my ABS wadding up somewhere.

I paid $150 for 'simple'. How about a nice simple mode where it just rips off ReplicatorG's support calculation but gives me a mathematical way to type in "Object needs to be 50mm X 40mm Y etc etc". As it stands Simplify3D is by FAR the least simple of the slicers I have and by far the worst. I can't even spit out a useable X3G or .gcode from Simplify so I can just to jump over to ReplicatorG for support creation.

I gave up on this last November and came back to try again hoping for some small return on my investment but so far everything has gotten less simple.

As an investor I'd say stop trying to add any more new features until you've got the basics sorted. SIMPLE.

I print with a FFCP non-stop and get great results from the software. Their stock profile worked wonderfully for me, and then I made tiny adjustments to really dial it in for my specific plastic. Produces amazing results now.

If you're having trouble, why don't you post your factory file. I could probably even print it on my machine to compare.

I'll second the compatibility with the creator pro. S3D was a huge step up in amount of settings when coming from flashprint, but once I read the tooltips of things I was unsure of, I was able to get some pretty great prints.
