I'm having a similar situation. Simplify3d crashing when I turn off retraction, or if I turn retraction to zero.
This may have something to do with the current Acceleration Mode of your software. Please go to Tools > Options > Visualization and try the "Disable Hardware Acceleration" option. Alternatively, you can also choose to not "Automatically load preview after slicing" and this will slice the file properly as well.
These modes are meant to try and compensate for outdated graphics drivers and/or cards so the best solution is to make sure you have the most up-to-date drivers available for your specific setup. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
That is not a solution.
Disable hardware acceleration results preview very slow, making preview useless.
Not choose "Automatic load preview after slicing" will force you have to save G-code file every time after slicing. It will make our job much inconvenient.
Your company should hire a better Quality Assurance team does the job before post a new release.
I would keep using 4.0.1 rather than 4.1.0 or 4.1.1, now.
Thank you for your input. These acceleration modes were implemented in 4.0.1. If that version works fine for you then you should be fine to work in Native Hardware Acceleration Mode as this is the mode 4.0.1 was setup to work in. There is no reason to use the other modes unless your software does not render correctly due to your graphics setup in this Native mode.
