I'm running my first test of Ultimaker PETG. The temperature is 240 with a 0.4 nozzleand so far it looks good.

I have both a CC 0.4 and a CC 0.6 print core. I was figuring I would have to keep extra copies of the files I modify so that I can paste them any time I do a Cura update. I did a quick test with CPE+, CC 0.4 core, and copied files. It seems to have worked well without warnings. There were lots of little bits of the material all over the build plate, but I think it also did that with the AA 0.4 core

After some researching on Cura and some fiddling around, I may have achieved what I wanted. This entailed creating copies of files, renaming the "aa" to "cc", and editing the AA to CC in the file There are 2 directories: C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 4.12.1\resources\quality\ultimaker_s5 C:\Program Files\Ultimaker Cura 4.12.1\resources\intent\ultimaker_s5 After doing this, when I change to the CC core for the material files that were copied and edited, Cura now gives me profile options and no longer gives incompatible messages. I did not get everything working as expected, but I am still tinkering. Once I get it all working, I will post the specifics.

So let's say I have an AA Core with Ultimaker Black Tough PLA. It gives me many quick recommended options. But when I change the print core to CC for the same material, I lose all of those options. If I go to Preferences to create a profile, I see no way to copy the Ultimaker Black Tough PLA and associate it with the CC core. Can this be done?

I use the BASF Ultrafuse PET CF15 and have been fairly happy with the results. Be sure to get the 0.6 CC print core. I first bought the CC 0.4 only to find out it wasn't compatible.

When I select the CC core, I no longer have the profiles options such as Default, Visual, Engineering, and Draft. Is there any way to make the profiles that show up for the AA cores also show when the CC Core is selected?

Is there any reason you can't use the CC print cores for materials such as PLA or ABS? Cura says it is incompatible. How can I force Cura to allow the CC core to be used on any material? I am under the impression the only difference is the hard coated nozzle and aluminum heat block. I would think it should work the same as the AA core.
