So quiet around here!

[CCS86]

Everything good @supermerill? It has been over a month since the last action. :)

[Seppideluxe]

Does anyone in the community have direct contact and can find out if everyone is ok? Of course, always with the necessary respect for privacy

[ntcong]

He had covid last month, probably taking some time off to recover

[Seppideluxe]

Thanks for the info and most of all all the best for him!!! Hopefully without late effects.

[CCS86]

He's back!

[Seppideluxe]

then everything good and above all not lasting

I too have been concerned, SS seems like its fell behind Prusaslicer and trailing it for updates

[CCS86]

It has been another quiet month

[Newcal]

Is supermerill alright ??

[Ojref]

I'm at the point of moving on, I don't know what the issue is, I hope all is well and due respect of course if not. Cheers and good luck all.

[jhlchu]

Anyone know of a good fork of SS or PS (other than SS)?

[moo00se]

UPDATE: Merill seems to be back as of 10/26. Trying to get back to work. Seen in the Discord Server.

Happy that you're ok Merill! Take your time getting back.

[Newcal]

Awwwww !! Excellent, I am glad he's ok !

Have a good one everybody :)

[CCS86]

Still no actions in the SS repo...

[usulrasolas]

@jhstatewide I think the 2.5 merge, all the main branch features but ss granularity

[jhstatewide]

What do you have working so far?

[Newcal]

@Newcal What do you need help with?

Sorry, I genuinely don’t get your question.

I am not asking for help. I was saying, if we could help him with SS, what could we do.

[jhstatewide]

Send him some $$$

[CCS86]

I have been sponsoring. But, it's pretty hard to justify continuing when no development is occurring.

[CCS86]

:(

[Newcal]

well...

[rohrbrecher]

For the time being: Is there a description how to use PrusaSlicer with Klipper/Mainsail? I tried some months ago but I quickly realized that sending files to Klipper automatically doesn't seem to work and also the generated gcode files seemed to give me some errors. So are there some basic settings everyone must use when using PS and Klipper?

[EchoAlpha519]

The Klipper website has some advice on how to set up your slicer. https://www.klipper3d.org/Slicers.html

[Nossolov]

3 printers with klipper/mainsail on PC and Mac under debian, and raspberry for me, and no problems. Once with the use of ArcWelder.
Nothing spécial with settings, just adjustment to printers. Gcode generated with SS2.3, SS2.4, SS2.5 and prusa 2.5.

[Stooovie]

It's getting stale but tbh Prusa Slicer had its last update in Sep 7

[Nossolov]

Sorry, but in french ...
SS est un super soft, surement le meilleur des slicers non Arachne. N'oublions pas que Cura est devenu payant en partie, que Simplify3D n'a jamais eu de version 5, que Prusa ne veut pas intégrer la correction des trous verticaux. L'integration d'arachne demande sans doute beaucoup de travail (travail que je suis bien incapable de faire), et comme le dit jhstatewide, le(s) développeur(s) de SS n'ont pas que ça à faire. C'est déjà admirable de pouvoir profiter de leur travail aussi facilement et librement. Alors, oui, il faut attendre. Et quand la version arachne sera disponible, ce sera un nouveau cadeau de plus à la communauté. Merci à eux.

[numanair]

@Nossolov SS does have an Arachne release already.

[Nossolov]

Yes you are right : 2.5.59.0
I try this. Quality of the print is not as good as last V2.4 with my printers. Prusa 2.5.0 is better when you really need arachne, and it is not so often for me. But Prusa don't support vertical hole correction, and it's very important when you have several printers. Cura support arachne, vertical hole, do the job, but it's "une usine à gaz". So, SS 2.4 is still the better for me.

[Visthum]

Arachne in SS is unusable, gives you lots of gaps. Hole correction will be included in prusa 2.6 which is releasing very soon, probably next week. You can measure stuff and correct hole dimension etc.

[Nossolov]

Just download and try prusa2.6alpha2. Still no hole correction, or i can't find it.

[CCS86]

Woah!

[CCS86]

Man, I was hoping the progress would continue.
