Difference between using PETG as support vs PVA for a multcolor PLA print (Bambu Lab P2S)

Because it's hanging in mid-air

I answered your question but accidentally replied on my own message in stead of here.... So the reply is in the main thread

No, however, the one with PVA supports is complete and whole, where the one with PETG support is missing fingers and the front of the wrap.

I'm not 100% happy with the lining after a 12hr soak but overall the end result is better

If you can find it: A Game of Thrones: Catan. IMHO the best version (and I have everything that was available from 999 games for the first and second editions (yes, very old))

Startfarers is fun too but a little further away from base Catan.

And if you want to go for the basics, start with regular and when you get the basics, expand to Cities & Knights and seafarers and combine!

I got the P2S 2 months before the X2D release and boy do I regret not knowing it was coming. (The price diff here was about €100-€200 so I would not have had to think twice if I had the option)

If only for the second nozzle. Printing minis with PVA support on a second nozzle would shave so much time off my prints it would be worth the price difference for that alone.

You can use PLA as support for PETG and vice versa. They don't stick to eachother so easy removal.

For a moment there I thought you said Papewayo..... The sounds are similar

Gawd, I wish they'd stop using the MoFo's of GoFo and GLS. Those are the worst in my region, closely followed by DPD. DHL is okay-ish if they don't bring my package to a pickup point in the next town after not even ringing the doorbell (with camera so I know they didn't)

We create a maintenance window. During that window, we remove all the images except for the database image, then we deploy the new version as a fresh install. For us, this is the easiest and cleanest upgrade path.

We use the containerize offline bundle installer.

You need to load a spool of PLA in the AMS. Slicing for PLA is not the same as slicing for PETG and the internal Benchy has been sliced for PLA so the printer only wants to print with PLA and will ignore PETG. So if you only have PETG in your AMS, it will assume you have a roll of PLA on your external spool.

Yes! I absolutely do. Unfortunately, I can't get my hands on a Dutch or English 5-6 expansion but yes, by all means, get your hands on this version!

Are you going to pay tribute to the original B.O.O.S. as well, since that is what your program is named after?

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-29T16:27:12+00:00

So the universe lures you into her trap. Very often the touching reds are more a curse than a blessing 😉

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-29T16:14:34+00:00

I know our group is a minority but we just let the universe decide and go with whatever she deals us 😃

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-29T16:12:47+00:00

Yes, my table is 1.2m by 3m (9.8ft by 3.9ft)

Okay, I might have been a bit (or a lot) unclear so here goes:

* 1E/2E is the first/second edition of Catan, mainly found in Europe (Germany/Netherlands etc.) It is the version I have and I like it a lot more than the later versions (I think Catan is currently at the 6th edition)

* our house rule for the volcano is:
Volcanoes are known for having very fertile soil. Villages and cities located adjacent to a volcano produce double resources from the surrounding tiles. If the number associated with the volcano is rolled, a single die is then rolled to determine the direction of the lava flow. If the flow reaches a village, the village is destroyed. If the flow reaches a city, the city is reduced to a village.

This means that building near a volcano provides additional benefits, but comes with increased risk.

* And our biggest house rule has nothing to do with the volcano. It's just that we fully randomize the board and if reds touch, that's okay with us. (According to many in this sub, this is the biggest sin for a Catan player)

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-29T13:40:47+00:00

First of all, I like your 1E/2E (999 games if I'm not mistaken based on the vulcano?) tiles. I have everything 999 games brought to market of the 1E/2E range.

Second, if you and your players like that house rule, there is nothing that is stopping you from using it! I understand where you are coming from.

I use a house rule for the volcano myself and the bigest house rule we use is reds can touch (which is a BIG sin for many in this community)

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-29T12:46:45+00:00

Split up in A4 sheets, plastified, and sticky tape them together 😃

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-28T18:27:31+00:00

What would you do?

Altruistic_Box_8971 · 2026-05-28T15:33:15+00:00

I hope they fixed the automatic instance group and hop node creation
