Mirror and Copy mode not working on FFCreator 3 Pro

Mirror and copy mode doesn't work on the Flashforge Creator 3/ 3Pro.
The machine act really weird with printing triangles on a square piece, skips layers and it jitters alot.
The multi material part is still working as it did in V4 but the two other modes doesn't.

Re: Mirror and Copy mode not working on FFCreator 3 Pro

Do you have the Creator 3 or the Creator 3 Pro? What firmware version are you running?

I know we've used both mirror and duplication mode on our own printers without issue, so it will help to know a bit more information.

Re: Mirror and Copy mode not working on FFCreator 3 Pro

Hey sorry for the late answer been busy with work.
I have the Creator 3 Pro and the firmware is: 1.3.7 103 VC1.2.5 20220427 read directly from the machine.
Also Simplify creates two files and i use the .Gx file not the G-code file if that helps.

Are you able to post the exact .gx file that you tried to print? If you run that file a few more times does this issue happen every single time?

Hello, what is status of this issue? I have Creator 3 Pro and I would like to have COPY model also. In my V5 version I didn't find any about that.

Re: Mirror and Copy mode not working on FFCreator 3 Pro

This thread is almost a year old with no more replies from the author, so I'm guessing they resolved their issue. With the latest S3D 5.1.2 release, we already include a preconfigured Creator 3 Pro profile which supports the different duplication and mirror modes, so it should be much easier to setup now with the latest release.
