Topic: e3d made their own slicer?
Did anyone see this?
I'm quite interested to see how an e3d designed slicer would work.

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
Downloaded and installed it .
It appears to be cloud bases as one needs to create an account and sign in to use . UGH
I guess i should have expected that as this seems to be the current trend.

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
I installed as well. Looks interesting. It is much slower than S3D but they claim they have yet to optimize slicing. It also has a learning curve in trying to find all the settings.
I bet if you read the agreement you will find your designs are theirs if you store them on the cloud.

and this is why i do not participate in cloud based software.
Count me out of this one, altho it does look interesting.

Looked at the agreement and it looks like they have learned from others..

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
ok, so maybe they did learn from other's mistakes for that aspect.. but I still will not use cloud based software.
I live in the boonies.. Internet out here is not stable enough, or robust enough, for cloud based programs.
we do not have cable, or even DSL, out here.. it just is not available, period.
speeds are a complete joke as well.. while the greater majority of the world complains about 50-60mbps download speeds, we are doing good to get 2 - yes, you read that right - two mbps download speeds.
I realize that I am in the minority, and make little to no impact on the things companies do these days, but it irritates me that those of us in rural areas are being left behind, left out, and pretty much ignored.

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
There are numerous other reasons to avoid cloud software.
Unless it's the magic slicer that makes FDM prints appear injection molded, I will be slicing away on my desktop with Heartless!

I may try it as an option.

It's not, so keep slicing on your desktop. S3D doe a far better job and that is saying alot.

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
I agree with Heartless; I stay away from cloud-based applications and services.
People often forget that there is really no such thing as 'the cloud'....there's your computer...and there's someone else's computer.

Re: e3d made their own slicer?
I was pretty annoyed when I jumped back into 3D printing a couple weeks back to see almost everything is going cloud based. Had to find the old 2017 version of sketchup to download. Even with a fast connection cloud based stuff just feels slower and more cumbersome.
