We have been trying to print a large object for a project and every time we try printing the object it fails an hour or so in. It will start grinding the filament and cause it to pause the print because it doesn't detect the movement. We have tried adjusting the tension in the extruder and different filaments and it still fails. I have included the STL file of the print and pictures of the failed prints.We are lost at what to do now.(Printing at the largest recommended layer height with recommended settings) (We are using 3D party filaments for this project currently and specifically now the MatterHackers Build Series PLA) Electronics Mount.stl

Actually, nevermind. I opened a file I was sure was made in Inventor 2018 and it opened fine.

When using Cura 4.0.0, I have installed the plugin via the new marketplace window. When trying to open an Inventor 2018 file, it says: "Invalid File: Failed to load *insert part directory (not what it actually said here, just where the file was)*" This is what the log said: 2019-04-04 08:29:50,402 -
