Simplify3D Version 4.0 Print Contest
Just save a factory file with a small part in it for each printer. Pull up the factory file and delete the small part to change printers. I find this to be more convenient than scrolling through a big list each time. Just give the files a name that will be at the top of the list (start with 1 for instance). These are available on that website mention, i cant download them though Simplify3D.v3.1.WiN64-iND Simplify3D.v3.1.1.WiN.OSX.LINUX-CGPERSIA level 1 2 points 4 years ago. Simplify3D is known for its ability to process incredibly large or complex models with ease. Version 4.1 further improves these capabilities, giving you more power for handling even the most challenging prints. Import larger models, export files faster, and take your printing to the next level.
With the release of Simplify3D Version 4.0 comes many new software features that provide users even more control over the printing process and unlock new capabilities from your 3D printer.
We have already seen a steady stream of amazing prints in the weeks following the release and we want to provide some extra incentive to try some of the new features! In this contest, we want you to use your creativity and 3D printing skills to create something amazing using new features from Version 4.0.
