Posted · RRF plugin not anymore available on the Marketplace ?

Hi

 

Everything is in the title. I cannot find the RepRapFirmware plugin in the Marketplace, though I have installed it previously on another Cura instance (4.3 and 4.4).

I had to downgrade to 4.2.1 with a fresh install due to numerous bugs, but I'm unable to reinstall the plugin.

 

Thanks for your feedback

    Unfortunately, due to a design flaw in the Marketplace, only one version of a plugin can be available in the Marketplace at a time. This means that if a plugin needs to be updated for newer versions of Cura, the author of the plugin must take additional steps to make sure that the plugin is also compatible with previous versions of Cura, or it will vanish from the Marketplace for those previous versions.

     

    The authot of the RRF plugin makes previous versions of the plugin available here:

    https://github.com/Kriechi/Cura-DuetRRFPlugin/releases

    You will have to manually install these previous versions.

    I've done a fresh install of Cura 4.2.1, removing the  user/Application Support/Cura folder from my Mac before making the install.

    So I should have been able to retrieve the plugin from the Marketplace, as I've done for your plugins without any problem.

     

    Is there any other location on macOS for Cura to store the settings and plugins ?

    What I meant to say is that because the author of the plugin uploaded a new version of the plugin to the Marketplace that is only marked to be compatible with Cura 4.4, the Marketplace no longer has a version that is compatible with Cura 4.2.1 (or any other version than Cura 4.4).

     

    For my own plugins, I jump through all the hoops to keep all my plugins compatible with previous versions of Cura, so the version of the plugins that is available on the Marketplace can be downloaded to previous versions as well.

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7

        Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7

        MariMakes posted a topic in Official news,

        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3.0-Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄

        Cura 5.3 Alpha With New Tree Support 🎄

        MariMakes posted a topic in Ultimaker Cura,

        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
