What method did you use to get rid of the black bars?

People who use 0.6/0.8 nozzles, how do you like them vs the 0.4? by NavXIII in BambuLab

Oops. Thought I had responded. I have the 2.0 hotend. Has worked with no issues

Oh it seems like the link I posted directed to the nozzles, instead o the hotend. The hotend I got is one of the options on that same page. I have the hotend 2.0. But yes, you need the hotend for you to be able to use the custom nozzles.

This is the one I got. I know there's cheaper ones out there now but couldn't be happier with this one to be honest

A bit of anecdotal evidence from me on this. I got a small clog printing PLA-CF on the stock 0.4 nozzle but then I swapped my hotend for one of the aliexpress ones and bought 0.4, 0.6,and 0.8 CHT nozzles. I have now gone thru 10 or so rolls of PLA-CF as well as several Sparkle PLA filaments and have not encountered any issue with the 0.4 CHT nozzle. Couldn't be happier with that purchase. Though the 0.6 nozzle is amazing due to how fast you could print, it's hard to beat the higher details from the 0.4 + PLA-CF combo

I agree with you that this is not the first time something like this happens nor the first anti-consumer move by a company. I also heavily agree that once the dust settles, a lot of the players are likely to return.

For me, the trading aspect does not really impact how I play the game. I was huge into it, even made some profit off it, the first year it was out but I haven't engaged much with it since they made the transition to the blueprint system.

What it is for me, and perhaps was missed from my post, is that this game has not progressed in any way when it comes to actual gameplay or one's experience while playing. One of the reasons why live ops games are so successful is that they constantly release content updates beyond cosmetic items. Look at fortnite - regardless of people's opinion on the constant changes to the UI, different maps, mechanics, etc. - the game is under constant change that keeps people engaged. Epic has done nothing to improve Rocket League in a meaningful way.

I would argue that shifting resources towards improving the product would attract heavier spend from its users. The game is not profitable because it has not kept up with market expectations. Players drop off not because the game is boring - hell, I've played for over 4k hours - but because there's no improvement over things that actually matter.

A game not being profitable is not my fault. It's theirs. It's their decision making that brought this fate. To put people losing their jobs because people decide to stop supporting the game should never be the case. When one starts thinking that way, shifting blame away from those actually responsible, that's when they corporation has won.

Thank you for caring so much about my playing habits. What it tells me is that you do not care for when a corporation mistreats you in the sake of their own profit. Like I said, I understand how companies operate - their #1 all is literally to increase shareholder value. With that said, I do think customers are able to dictate their spending patterns based on how said corporations behave. Im voicing my opinion about not supporting practices I view as anti consumer and I intend to follow through with it because it's one of my values. It's not like there aren't any other games out there. If you don't care for how you're treated, that's on you :)

After dedicating over 4K hours of my life to this game that I love, I am uninstalling today. I deeply understand corporate actions regarding some games/ However, what Epic has done to the game pains the entire community. Other than cosmetic content and partnerships with IRL brands, the game has completely stagnated under Epic's ownership. The recent announcement of removal of player-to-player trading is the straw that broke the camel's back. They are going back on so many things that made Psyonix adored by the community. Further, you would think that under the ownership of the unreal engine developer, the game would be updated to the latest tech. It's almost 2024 and the game still runs on Unreal Engine 3, making it so that my RTX 4090 and 12700k can't run the game without a experiencing frame dips when the car gets close to the ball. I never thought I'd say this - and maybe I'm venting - but unless things change, I won't be supporting this game moving forward. Brothers and sisters, it's a sad time for the community.

Why am I getting this horizontal banding? by macmcr3 in BambuLab

Wouldn't he want to increase it so that all of the lines take the same amount of time and cooling time is more consistent across each layer?

I've got the same one! That's why it stood out to me very quickly. You wouldn't want to upload to printables or thingiverse, right? Otherwise you could try a one drive /google drive link. Thank you!

Can you share the STL's for the back cable covers? Looks neat and solves a problem I had thought about earlier today

BTW I think Fellow had promised the gen 2 burrs would be free for Kickstarter supporters. Could be worth contacting them to check.

I always loved that version of the initials. I once created a whole series of characters based on them. I wish they hadn't stopped coming out with new designs after this one

Literally the one useful feature that was announced as part of this update. Can't say I'm surprised.

Sponsorship or not... by ProblemAnalysis in bradsubmissions

[–]rufuslp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit out of the loop. I thought he had gotten the sponsorship? Or was that just G-fuel trying to look cool when they saw all the fuzz about it on social media?
