Communication problems since updating to 3

Anyone else having trouble since updating s3d? Since I've updated, my machine has been acting weird. Won't jog axis' randomly, Got crc error, randomly takes a while to begin print, even extruder is acting differently. I have Mac version and robo3d. Anyone else having these issues?

Re: Communication problems since updating to 3

nothing on my mac version. that has worked flawlessly. my pc version the print will freeze for 5-6 sec about 5 min into the print. does it every time. i really try not to print from usb anyway.

I'm seeing a few comm issues, but fortunately not during printing (though other issues are there...) USB comm seems to drop a lot with S3D 3.0, and even causes the printer to freeze at times. When I can get S3D to work, I'm stuck printing to file and putting on a SD card. This is on a FF printer.

I also have some problems, probably the comm also,
When starting a print, it homes, then goes down (delta), then it pauses for 1-20 sec (randomly) before starting the print.
Have never done that before.

My biggest problems have been with the extruded. It is severely under extruding and acting weird. I haven't been able to print since the upgrade came out. Thought I just had a clog but deep cleaned hot end and still same. Always something :(

I too see this problem, so much that I can't use S3D 3.x right now. I just e-mailed support, and will try to post here if they can fix it. The printer works fine, and I can print with my FlashForge slicer. But S3D 3 is very buggy right now.
