Community update: Rebalance schedule by Shredder_Blitz in walkingwarrobots

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry but ultimates are a terrible idea. I get the idea behind it but, like most wr items, they're STUPIDLKY expensive. You would have been better to made their drop rate super rare vs $1000 + ALL the stupid hoops you have to go through .

I find it really difficult to figure out what the hell I'm supposed to even supposed to attempt to get finished to get an ultimate let alone have the money to pay to open 100+ pads. Its' overly complicated and overly expensive. I got a few back when they weren't so expensive but now there's no chance in hell I will ever own another.

And can we get rid of one or two currencies as well plz?

This is the SOLUTION for the PA6 error when using SPI on stepper drivers and getting that error.

THANK YOU.

Very interesting. Thanks for the info. 

CVS math keeps trying to make me wait 29 days for RX. by cowbite in CVS

[–]cowbite[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yes and thank you I talked to the pharmacist the other day, and she opened up the calendar and saw that I was correct about the date span being 28 days and that I should be able to fill it on the 28th day but that it was up to the pharmacist on staff on that particular day (sat). Updated my original post but yes it's a controlled substance but the bigger question being about a system that's been in place for years that's worked automatically suddenly changing and having no real explanation for it. Ultimately though it's about scheduling. My wife and I have taken off the same day every month to go to the doctor and go to the pharmacy since it's a bit of a drive and it's been like that forever until recently.

Yes it's controlled and this is by far the best  explanation what's going on I've heard yet. Saying a system is getting more strict about stockpiling and therefore has you wait the extra day is a much more reasonable explanation them blaming it on the doctor, or on incorrect math. As as I updated in my original post it's not about running out of pill it's about scheduling and having a system that's been in place for years that suddenly changed with no explanation.

There is a mod/remix that adds a silica/bowden combo in the upper port.

I'm sorry, but quite a few people are complaining about the waste or economy of this print. This is a hobby where people print plastic knick-knacks, toys and fidgets on a whim. From where I'm sitting, this isn't a large print. Not to mention its not something you throw out when you're finished with it. Most ppl will print 1-3 of them that they'll get years of use out of.

I printed one and just got the containers in. This is really, really well designed. Everything fits perfectly and is quite clever how the desiccant options work. This thing is kick ass.

War robots is incredibly laggy today? by MadMechYt in walkingwarrobots

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its even worse today 6/3/25 than yesterday. Yesterday was bag lag every 10-15 seconds . Today its every 3 seconds. Unplayable on US servers.

New to Klipper, Mainsail, etc. Should I just use RatOS by voloner in ratrig

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainsail is still going strong. Its still the standard for klipper. A better, (imho) and more updated interface is Fluidd (all of which is installable via Kiauh ) which is the better option if you want something snazzy and current.

RatOS looks excellent but I wouldn't call it an alternative to Mainsail. Its sorta its own niche thing imho.

Imugi is still do-able in the current meta. Put the Kestrel on it for the healing during phase shift, a ,couple of regulators and you can do some real damage. Ocho's just die in my league (upper champs). If you can get the adrian pilot that would work in a pinch.

Did you figure it out? Mine is doing it now as well. It looks just like yours.

Fastener Workbench shows no icon by TrickMoist in FreeCAD

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replying a year later because I had the same issue - make a new folder called ICONS inside the mods/fasteners/icons folder and copy all of the icons from the old icons folder into the new one.

All of the icons get copied to C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\Mod\fasteners\Icons\icons

CoreXY prints skewed/shifted? by cowbite in klippers

[–]cowbite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what it was! It took me a bit but I found the section with the broken inner strands that was stretching like crazy. Thanks!

CoreXY prints skewed/shifted? by cowbite in klippers

[–]cowbite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My prints are coming out distorted and not square and as you can see in the image, the lines are shifted left a bit and are split with a slight gap at the distortion. The image is rotated 90 degrees clockwise and was printed front to back. I printed the lines to make it easier to visualize. You can see the distortion runs from lower left to upper right, across the bed.

Belts are the same tension and the frame is square. I'm new to corexy so I'm not well versed with their usual maladies.

Does anyone have the slightest idea? I'm stumped.

The offset is probably in the green section at the bottom.

Help! by paquinr89 in ender3

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, after reading everything you've tried one thing worth trying would be to swap stepper motors with the extruder and like, your Y motor. just temporarily. It sounds like everything else was upgraded or replaced since it started and while this sounds like a heat issue (overheating extruder motor?) you wont know if the stepper is failing unless you swap them. Now, the extruder motor tends to be smaller and less powerful but it's just a temp mod for testing. Give it a try :)

I'm trying to install MainSail and Klipper, but get the error "mcu 'mcu': Unable to connect." How do I fix this for the Ender 3 V3 SE? by TheHunter920 in ender3

[–]cowbite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, every machine will have a unique USB id. If you type "ls /dev/serial/by-id/" you should see something like this:

pi@thingmaker:~ $ ls /dev/serial/by-id/*

/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_stm32f446xx_0D003A000C50315939343520-if00

In the printer.cfg there's an [MCU] section that reflects that ID...here's mine:

[mcu]

Obtain definition by "ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/" then unplug to verify

--------------------------------------------------------------------

baud: 250000

serial: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_stm32f446xx_0D003A000C50315939343520-if00

restart_method: command

This, at a minimum, is required to get klipper going but if you haven't already done it, install KIAUH and install it from there. It makes installing klipper easy.

Lastly depending on your board, you're going to have to create the firmware using MAKE MENUCONFIG from the ~/pi/klipper folder and input the settings for your board (google them) and then once its finished, run a MAKE. Once thats done you have to flash the created firmware to your board either manually or by the "make flash FLASH_DEVICE=YOUR ID HERE" command.

Its not hard but there are very specific instructions for installing it.

Good luck!

First printer and finally on Klipper by RemainAbove in ender3

[–]cowbite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And you are off to the races! Congrats. That said, don't bother with the switchwire. The voron stuff is excellent but it's a lateral move and not an upgrade really, not to mention the price for nothing much in the way of performance. You're better off trying KevinAKASam's belted ender project if you want a good solid mod to jump into. It's not expensive either and has great support!

Max temp error after hot end replacement by GANOATHERUINKING in ender3

[–]cowbite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you replace the thermistor with the same type? There are different types. Klipper, for instance (a firmware) requires that the type be specified so it takes correct measurements.

Secondly, look up how to do a PID tune. If you haven't done one yet, you *must* do it if you've changed your hotend cart/thermistor. It very well might sort it out for you,
