  1. If you cant find .x3g, the App Data folder is hidden for me. Im not sure why maybe the file manager got updated. Im on windows 11. Make sure to go into view then show, then select hidden items at the top. Also make sure to be opening the folder under your username. The .x3g file will not show up without you being in your user name folder and continuing. Like said up above: C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\cura\4.4\plugins\X3GWriter\X3GWriter Also instead of 4.4 it will be 5.1 if your running the latest software One more thing cowards way out is to just buy Simplify 3d which will let you run Maker bot 2 or 2x out the gate for 150. You can upgrade the makerbot with IDE-3D heating bed and itll be compatible, you just have to select 2x. New to 3d printing here lol after I found out Maker Bot screwed everybody over with not updating their software for newer windows versions and so on. If your on Mac RIP. I dont know how much more different itd be in general to configure, but id be willing to try to help. Question for everyone, what is the difference between this method of configuring and this method linked: https://jessestevens.com.au/2020/05/25/a-better-way-to-configure-cura-to-slice-objects-for-your-makerbot-replicator-2-3d-printer/ Which is the better way? Im trying to run a 3d printing business with a Maker Bot that was going to get thrown out. The motherboard blew out on it and I found a beat up donor Maker Bot on Cragslist, salvaging a board. With the amount of money and time spent I could of bought a Prusa, but oh well. UPDATE: So like Jesse said there is a better way to configure the replicator 2 on his 3rd post I misunderstood, as he described his way on this forum is a little hacky, and I have linked the better way under the bolded question on my post. Just click on the link above. Make sure to read the whole forum through because the person who posted is using linux, and windows instruction somewhere below. Also here is a different link same way different website https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/32744-better-method-to-using-replicator-2-printers-with-cura/
