    Cura 5.0 works fine, 5.1 disables extruder

    in UltiMaker Cura

    Posted

     Cura 5.1 is somehow disabling my extruder.

    When I bring a model into 5.1 and slice it, the result is always 0 grams of filament. The print head moves through all the code, but nothing is extruded. I'm using filament and print profiles that were working in 5.0. 

    Cura 5.0 works fine with the same models. 

    I copied my start and end code from 5.0 to 5.1, and it will print the prime line and the skirt, then stops extruding. This is not a clogged nozzle or anything physical/mechanical. 

    Im running Klipper on and Ender5.

     

    Any ideas what to check? Its something with the extruder instructions

    Sometimes Profiles show up, sometimes not

    Cura 4.10

    Sometimes when I open a model the default profile will have the same name as the last profile I was using, but the actual settings are different (print speed, temp, etc.). When I click the drop down menu to select a different saved or default profile, there are no options. Nothing. The defaults (standard, dynamic, super quality) aren't even there.  Just one option, with the name of the last custom profile I created, but with incorrect values. 

    Usually I just quit all instances of Cura and restart, which seems to correctly load all my profiles, but what is causing this?

    Upgraded to 4.10 cant open any STL files

    in UltiMaker Cura

    I have been using Cura 4.8 since it was released with no problems on this computer (Windows 10).

     

    I downloaded 4.10, uninstalled 4.8 without deleting configuration files, then installed 4.10.

     4.10 opens just fine. 

    If I try to open any STL file, Cura 4.10 gives a fatal error and log, which I have submitted to ultimaker several times. It then closes Cura. 

    I have tried creating new STLs and loading old ones. 

    I cannot import from fusion360.

     

    I uninstalled 4.10, and reinstalled 4.8, and everything works as normal.

    Any suggestions of what could be crashing 4.10?

    OK, I assumed you were trying to push it over 100mm/s.....

    How do you know its staying at 100?

    I would try another slicer, if you have the same results in another slicer, then it is your firmware

    If the other slicer slows it down, then the problem is in the gcode that Cura is producing

    Cura 4.7 print times way off

    in UltiMaker Cura

    Posted

    Started using 4.7 a few days ago.  On the 4.6 version my print estimation times were always within a few minutes of actual print time. 

    I noticed my first few small prints printed much faster than 4.7 estimated, like 20 minutes to an hour faster, on 2-5 hour estimated prints. 

    Finally did a bigger print last night: Cura 4.7 estimated 11 hours 36 min

    Actual print time: 7 hours 38 min. 

    This is on an ender 5. 

     

    it seems the estimates get further off with longer prints.

     

    Im glad the actual print time is faster than the estimate, but it was pretty accurate in 4.6 and I would rather have it be accurate. 

    Im mostly posting this for the Cura developers, as I dont think there is anything I can change to make it more accurate. But if there is let me know, thanks
