CURA Profile for Flashforge Creator 3

thingiverse

CURA definitions for Flashforge Creator 3 I did not find CURA settings and definitions for the Flashforge Creator 3 on the internet, and i miss a lot of features in the Flashprint - Slicer. Consequently i had to create my own CURA profile. I found a Flashprint Creator Pro profile from user Eugr and updated it with new start and endcodes, head positions, size and extruder definitions. Installation: Copy the files in folders 'definitions', 'extruders' and 'scripts' to the fitting folders in C:\Users\...your user...\AppData\Roaming\cura\ (...your cura version...) Start CURA and add printer (Flashforge -> Flashforge Creator 3) and (Flashforge -> Flashforge Creator 3 Passively Heated Chamber) if you like to print demanding materials like ABS, ASA, Nylon. Features: --> Both extrudes work nicely in single and dual mode. --> Temperatures stay stable with the added script. --> No mirror mode or duplicate mode for now Creates .gcode files that the Flashforge Creator 3 accepts and prints flawlessly. You only lose the preview on the touchscreen as the .gx files from flashforges flashprint show. Start and end codes mostly transplanted from a flashprint - slice and with a lot of trial and error as Flashforge has not released a full gcode list. Please add comments if you find any unusual behaviour. Other: Flashforge, please open up you ecosystem, and provide CURA setting and open source-plattforms on your printers. You will sell more of your excellent machines. Dont lock up. Inspired by and based on the following work: https://github.com/eugr/Flashforge-for-Cura
