Hi @skillzy,

there's a link on the Cura product page:

 

View all versions

 

You can download all preceding versions from there.

faced the same problem as you, any luck downloading the 14.07?

I have tried several other old links and most of them are not working.

 

@SandervG can you please check it internally that someone fixes the download links. Thanks!

Does 15.04.6 not work for you? That is, to my knowledge the best and last version available.

hi sorry i should probably specify that the reason i want to download 14.07 is because my printer came with an init file that only works with 14.07 to my knowledge.

so you haven't manage to download it? sobss i need it too

Ultimaker took some older versions offline, but they forgot to remove the link itself too from the website. But I don't know why they made this decision.

Same problem for me. @tinkergnome: if you go to the cura download page you can click "find previous versions", but all that is there is the Cura 14.07 source code. No exe or installation file there...

 

I have worked (a LOT!!) with all cura versions since 1993. The newest versions are quite good in some respects, but in other respects they are actually TERRIBLE compared to 14.07, which I still prefer for most prints.

 

PLEASE ADD THE 14.07 WINDOWS INSTALLATION FILES TO THE DOWNLOAD PAGE !

 

or if someone has archived this, please send it to me : es@printedinspace.nl. Thanks !!!

We don't have one anymore. The oldest one I've got is 15.06.
 

What Cura did you use in 1993? It hasn't been out that long yet (it was released in 2011).

Check your floppy disks... 😉

Haha, big OOPS... I meant 2013. Early dementia ??

 

So no need to dive into my box of old floppy discs. But I'll have a proper dig through my archive. Lots of hard discs to check... Hopefully it's there somewhere. If I find it I'll let you know.

@tinkergnome: thanks a million !!

 

@nallath: got it from the first link in the previous post by tinkergnome. Perhaps you could put it back on the download page now ?
