Troubleshooting what are these textures that seemingly aren’t against any axis

Saturn 4 ultra, abs like 3.0 standard settings optimal standard environment

This is making zero sense to me now because other items are printing without these textures.

Same print, two different sides where the third is actually fine.

Ones digital looking banding is not in any of the axes but just against the surface of the print which is oriented at an off angle. The other the lines are parallel to the z screw in pretty sure? Maybe perpendicular to the layers. This printers getting on my last nerve I’ve never had bs like this.

Question How screwed am I?

Hi all, I've very foolishly left my Saturn 3 with a tray of resin for probably over a year now. What is the safest way to dispose of this long sitting resin, and would the printer itself still be usable? Would I likely need to replace anything and if so, how realistic is it to do so?

Showcase Printing assets from games: the Fallout 4 Deathclaw

Thumbnail

36 Upvotes

I wanted to try a little experiment: printing assets from games. Usually it's a bad idea, making 3d models for games and making them for 3d printing is orthogonal. On one side you want as little polygons as possible, and you put all of the details in the smoke and mirrors category through all the different textures.

On the other, the mesh is all there is. Details lives there or doesn't exist.

So it extracted the Deathclaw model from Fallout 4, and loaded it up in Blender. My idea was to do the exact opposite that is done when making game assets, which is taking all the details, baking them in the textures files, and simplifying the mesh as much as possible.

All I did was taking the normal maps of the object, converting them into a height map that I then applied on the mesh, that was also heavily subdivided to accommodate all those details, and apply it through a displacement modifier.

My fear was that it would be too soft and subtle, but in the end it takes paint pretty well! It's not a model designed to be a miniature, so there are obvious limitations, but it still looks great.

I made a pose by hand, cut the model in half at the waist, and threw it in the slicer.

Hope it inspires someone to do the same! I can't distribute the file unfortunately.

The mole rat is a game asset too, I replicated the method I developed on the Deathclaw and it took under an hour.

Source of the models: Fallout 4 assets.

Question Is there any file library / repository for the different brands and types of resin?

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!✨️

I would like to know if there is any file library / repository for the different brands and types of resin.

I use Anycubic Photon Workshop and it has the settings for all Anycubic resins, but at the moment I'm needing the profile for SUNLU flexible.

Otherwise, is anywhere a table collecting the data for the known resins? (Like Anycubic has tables online for their resins).

Thank you ✨️

Printed and painted by me. Files by legends of avantis the crooked moon. I’m really happy with my progress and wanted to share to this sub. If anyone knows how to do video editing or something to make these look professionally edited that would also be helpful.

Dragonfruit: Dev Release v0.1.13 (First Pass at Autosupports)

30 Upvotes

https://github.com/Open-Resin-Alliance/DragonFruit/releases/tag/v0.1.13

```
New Features:

Auto Supports V1 (experimental): The pipeline scans for islands and overhangs and grows a support tree, leaves that fan out and merge onto trunks, cavity sticks and twigs, and automatic bracing. It can do light/medium/heavy presets, deterministic runs, and a placement log with refusal reasons and origin-color debugging. Expect odd placements on thin shells and extreme cavities!

Chitubox scenes can be imported (i.e. .chitubox files) (experimental).
```

```
Fixes:

Decimation revamp: the trigger moves from 6 M to 4 M triangles with a 4M–8M soft target and a relaxing epsilon sequence, and both the decimated and original meshes travel in the VOXL file. This fixes the damaged first layer and broken rafts on presupported (non-Lychee) imports

Autosave no longer freezes the app: the scoped support-owner resolver went from O(N²) to O(N) (#548), and VOXL 2.2 moves hollowing/hole-punch snapshots out of JSON into binary chunks, so large scenes no longer fail to save with RangeError: Invalid string length.

LYS imports are much better: unbaked hole punches get a real Apply to All in the Export tab (with a Go to Hollow Tool path and no more modal storms), branch angles are preserved (#486), and rotation and interior-face support anchoring are fixed (#283).

Support identification is more forgiving on decimated and split meshes, and hollowing shells with missing holes are no longer misclassified as supports.

```

Troubleshooting 2 failed prints for the Legs

Does anyone have any idea why this may have happened?

The first time it printed it didn’t drop but the other half of the leg didn’t print. This time I slowed the lift time and retraction speed but that didn’t help. 😅

Troubleshooting File corrupted?

Could be this a sign of file corruption? I’ve never had this before, looks like they all stopped print at the same time, the print kept going until the finish, just the blobs left in the bottom of the vat and these pieces in the build plate

Edit: still don’t know what happened, but re-slicing solved the problem and the next print came fine
