I just read the article. I would post a link, but I don't have permission.
I'm new to 3D printing, and I will have a Da Vinci 1.0 come Christmas. So my question is, is this a good thing or no? Should I use it?

Sure if you want a $200 piece of software to run a $400 printer.

I bought it before the update for my other printers, the software is great, much better than what's available for the da vinci. The support structures and how easily they come off are worth it alone for me.

Thanks for the info, my printer arrives Saturday. I was wondering if S3D is better than XYZware. If I install S3D, does that void the warranty? I may end up using the stock software for a while until I'm more comfortable with the printer.

I'm using it with my Da Vinci printer with stock firmware.
Would be interested to see the same print from S3D and XYZWare (on a stock DaVinci) to see if there is a signification difference in quality.

Personally, I think the power comes from the options you get with the s3d slicing engine. I'll try to do a test print with my da vinci using s3d stock firmwware and get pics

Thanks. I'm looking forward to the results.
Here it is folks, i brought my laptop over to my friend's place and he has a 2.0 with stock firmware:

Looks good. Do you think the quality is better than using XYZWare?
of course the print quality is better just look at all the features you get with the software. you also get a simulation to review with s3d. with full control over your printing capability it kicks the crap out of the xyzware . xyzware only gives you a couple options and you are stuck with what ever it gives you but the s3d allows so much adjustability you can actually cut your print times by a lot compared to the xyzware. and you don't have xyz able to remotely access your printer and take control of your property and lock you out of being able to run it open source.
I just got S3d last night so I have not had a lot of time to play with it yet. What I have played with so far is great. I love the option of setting the temps at different layers. I can now start to cool the bed down as the print get close to the end.
Just got simplify, great stuff except it will not connect with my da dinci 1.0.
I've tried com3 and com1 with all the baud rates. Also I turned the printer on/off as that solves the busy printer error in xyzware.
Ah got it to talk. Just off/on'ed the printer then Quickly hit the connect button in the machine dialog box. Could be a hit and miss thing.
Warming up ....
Ok, the print job was cancelled, messy. Before I experiment, has anyone done working adjustments to temps, speeds etc.

Speeds for this printer should be 40 or less. Temps on average should be 210 for extruder and 90 to 110 for bed..

what firmware are you running on your da vinci? I am under the impression that it doesnt work with the new firmwares version 1.0.1 and up.

I've just updated the firmware, I can send a Gcode from simplify to the da Vinci, just have to get
It right.

The speed set under the fff dialog was 1800mm/min, will try 1000. Extruded temp wa 220, will try 212 as per normal operation.
The use of simplify really is a 'no choicer' such as stuff like putting all those single piece stl's together.

make sure your not running 1.2.3 firmware as it says the software will only work with all firmwares before the 1.2.3
The printer says its 1.0.3, yet I just updated the firmware? Is the 1.2.3 only for the duo or the aio?
I am getting the same crap prints for several small rubber gun bit stl's loaded together.
The larger piece just a 3cm gear type thingy.
Can someone post their successful simplify parameters (including the dialog it is in) please.
My chief suspect is the speed Is too large. So I'm looking thru the hacking thread on that, cf what simplify outputs. Can we get a text version of the gcode output? The output of simplify is 'factory' format that is binary.

You've probably got one of the very very new printers that has a completely different main board and different/new firmware.
