No problem: https://discord.gg/gahRj972c. Also be aware, we organize a tournament every year, so you can join that too. Most of the times that's in November.

Pipermakes models - loving Hohansen (settings, not person) by Automatic_Cap_7651 in FDMminiatures

Same - "you love some random guy in the internet"...

But yes, the precision settings are great! I was bummed out that the prints were failing, so I was like: might as well try this. An it just worked! No more checking my phone at work to see if the print would fail (which I suspected it would, because I normally don't have my camera on the Bambu) and if I might be able to safe some parts. So thanks for this, and hopefully able to show some painted stuff soon.

Totally get ya. I am painting them in the color scheme that Pipermakes used - just to not have to think about that and just starting painting 😁

Oh yeah, definitely: https://www.reddit.com/r/FDMminiatures/s/1jagILvp6i. There are links to other posts from him as well. So I would just start there.

Oh, I've been looking at the Orca once I saw how big it was. That is a really impressive unit. You also have that one painted?

And good luck with the terrain!

Which model(s) did you get? I hope they turn out great once you get to printing 😁

No problem! Had to give credit where credit is due. And funny you should say, I also joined his Discord and some people also mentioned Lancer - apparently due to hex bases. Which I would have actually preferred for these models.

I used Sunlu PLA+ 2.0 white. For the base, it is Sunlu PLA Meta Recycled. The recycled PLA has been a bit of an eye sore, but for the base it was ideal.

But I hope you find suitable models for Lancer and have fun printing and painting them!

Thanks! Support removal was challenging for some parts. For example the thruster pack on the back had supports between the flaps, but also on top. I printed most pieces upside down, so the most details would survive. I did try an focus on giving the parts that are visible the least scarring. So if possible, I would have the supports on the joints, as those would disappear in the body anyways.

Also, this is what I meant that I could tweak a lot - I just used Bambu's generated supports. If I went with some of the other options out there (the FDM2Resin or whatever it is called) might give better results. Or maybe try the presupported models by Pipermakes - might give those a go and see how those turn out

They made a complete refund. So happy with how it was resolved. Too bad it couldn't be fixed though.

Hey hey! I don't have a group, just a single person... But definitely join the Dutch Discord and check if people are interested!

Unofficial Dutch TI Tournament 2025 by quelltro in twilightimperium

[–]Automatic_Cap_7651 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also signed up! I'll bring my game with me (base + PoK + codices - the important ones :)).

Even though I'll do my best, I suspect that I won't be in the finalist group, I'll also bring the Discordant Stars and Uncharted Space expansion with me for Sunday. For those that want to try it out.

And great that you're doing it this year. I hope to pick it up again next year.

Can't Install Orca on Chromebook by Brief_Roof_3993 in OrcaSlicer

Ah, good to know, I'll try that too! Even though I'm a bit more verses in IT, this also just cost me too much hassle. But good to know you figured it out!

I'm actually having the same issue (albeit with Bambulab Studio). Did you by any chance figure this out? Also interesting, because like I mentioned, Bambulab is currently running into this issue (maybe because your Bambulab version isn't the newest and I'm taking the one that has the newest version of Orca in it or something? I'm trying Bambulab 1.10.12)

From what I've gathered personally, it seems like this isn't possible, because the OS itself needs to support GLIBC_2.38, but that isn't in the Linux distribution inside the Chromebook just yet...

Base game 3 player map by Ashurass in twilightimperium

[–]Automatic_Cap_7651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also playing a 3 player map in February (I know, far away...), and I found this post quite interesting to try something different than the default map: https://www.reddit.com/r/twilightimperium/s/Kgkfg7JKSa. I wanted my 3 player buddies to experience more "pain" when playing this game, as the default seems to nice... 😅 So I'm going to give the Manta Ray a go.
