is teh software still being developed?

[highground]

Maybe they have been bought out or have made enough money already?

Guys - this is a user forum. Email them directly if you want to ask their employees things. This is a place for users to talk.

I've emailed with them at least 5 times this week and they are definitely still developing stuff (since I've been helping them test things )

I become MAD , i dream about a BIG RELEASE , dual extrusion working fine , support designing tool , intelligent support , intelligent printing , time gain

But i just want the software be fully functionnal about dual and supports

I will be the best news for me !

It's coming up on a year now since the last update. Previous to that, it seemed we were getting minor updates every few months. In the 3D printing industry, a year is like an eternity. Things are changing very fast - Simplify 3D doesn't seem to be keeping up...

Admittedly I've been really hoping to see an update as while I use S3D daily (and prefer it 100% over Makerbot's software) it's still got its bugs and could have so many useful features - a bit of communication from the team would be nice

[studiodyne]

Yes we need communication

I use s3d every day and , i'm still waiting the popup windows that say ' A NEW UPDATE IS AVAILABLE ' , but still waiting again today !

We need communication!

The times I've been involved with software companies that do make noise about development, that also pissed the users off because updates were always so far delayed from initial promises and features that were announced early ran into issues so some were dropped. Can't make everybody happy, and these folks aren't breaking any promises by keeping quiet.

That is essentially what I said ten posts ago.

What users do not grasp is the difference between a promise and a hopeful schedule.

I'd be happy if they just fixed the missing layer issues. If I drop 4 models in and print, it misses layers off 1 or more of the models. If I print the same model on its own, no missing layers. It can't be the model at fault.

Don't worry about new features. Fix the current ones.
