Corresponds with PrusaSlicer 2.5.0 release.

Changes since v2.4.1:

  • Updated to PrusaSlicer 2.5.0 settings, and now defaults to Arachne slicing.
  • For PLA and ABS extrafine and fine profiles, thick bridges are disabled. It is assumed these profiles will usually be used for smaller objects, hence shorter bridges. Thin bridging extrusions have a reduced ability to bridge large distances, but look nicer.
  • Enabled elephant foot compensation for all profiles, with a subtle value of 0.1 mm that works fine for me in most cases.
  • Filament tweaks like fan speed (only relevant if you use MVF or some other way to control fan speed from within G-code) and temperatures (obviously only relevant if you have the same filaments).
    A general reminder: if you print with ‘silky’ PLA filaments, you will generally need higher temperatures than for regular PLA.

Reminder: if you are upgrading from 2.3 or older, here is an important bit of the 2.4 release notes:

  • Configuration has been separated from the make_fcp_x3g.pl script. You should no longer edit the script, only the config text file. See the README for updated instructions.
    A quick checklist for migrating your config lines from the old script to the new text file:
    • Convert single quotes to double quotes.
    • Omit commas in [ARRAY] type items. Put each array element between double quotes and separate elements with a space.
    • No trailing semicolons.
