2021119 Pre-release
Pre-release

What's changed?

  • Upstream changes (4.12.1 release)

  • Upstream changes to the preview (aka layer view) that are meant to speed it up but at the moment have broken the Windows build for me. The 3 Linux builds work OK for me, please let me know if anyone has problems.

  • The x86_64 AppImage now supports wayland but has a few quirks. e.g. the menus misbehave unless you pop them up with a keystroke rather than by using the mouse. Some file dialogs hang requiring the cura process to be killed so it's not that great, YMMV. To enable wayland support prefix the command with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland. i.e. QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland ./Cura-mb-master-x86_64-20211119.AppImage

  • Due to upstream changes, the Windows 32 bit release can no longer be built.

  • Due to upstream changes, I can no longer build Cura for any version of MacOS.

  • The x86_64 Linux release is now being built on a Ubuntu 20.04 system (was using 16.04) so if anyone has problems (e.g. missing libraries), please let me know and I will try to fix.

    • Some systems don't have libxcb-xinerama installed by default so if the AppImage fails to start do sudo apt install libxcb-xinerama0 to install it.

IMPORTANT - this release will update your configuration so that it will no longer be compatible with earlier releases. Please make sure to backup your Cura configuration before starting this release!

See README.(md,html,pdf) for usage info and earlier history.


ARM Builds

To use the armhf or aarch64 AppImages you must have the libgles-dev package installed (sudo apt-get install libgles-dev).

Also, if you want the nicer preview display you need to download and unpack the appropriate mesa files archive, this will not overwrite any system files. To unpack from the command line do sudo tar xzf mesa-ARCH-VER.tar.gz

What's changed?

  • Upstream changes (4.11 release). You now have 2 implementations of monotonic skin pattern to choose from. My (mb-master) implementation and UM's implementation. They are enabled using different settings. My implementation only supports the lines skin pattern.

  • Bug fix for overhang detection - some wall lines weren't being detected as overhung when they should have been.

  • Bug fix for the thickness of skins when variable layer heights are used.

  • Unfortunately, due to upstream changes, I can no longer build Cura for any version of MacOS, sorry about that.

  • The x86_64 Linux release is now being built on a Ubuntu 20.04 system (was using 16.04) so if anyone has problems (e.g. missing libraries), please let me know and I will try to fix.
