Machine Build Platform STLs?

[DarrenG]

I've been watching some of the excellent YouTube tutorials and wondered how I can configure my Simplify 3D install to use the same detailed Flashforge Creator Pro build platform image as used in the tutorials, it doesn't seem to be included in the software?

Just go to Help > Configuration Assistant and download the FlashForge Creator Pro profile. It happens automatically.

That doesn't work here? All I get is the basic build platform, correct size but that doesn't include the carriage details shown in my example above?

It makes no difference to the resulting print I know, just wondered why i didn't see them yet all the tutorials have 'em!

This is all I see:

Strange, I just tried changing to a different printer type and the changed back to the FFCP and it has now appeared!

Thanks for the pointer

I can remember having to go through this ritual as well some time ago....must be the need to download the .stl file from the server when selecting your printer type.

After I had established the STL, I had a go at modifying mine. I, for one, am not ashamed of owning a Makerbot:
