I just got 6.2 update and I do not see an option to add bracing to my supports. Where did they go?

Hello I just came across your channel not too long ago and I absolutely love the fact that you simplify things! I’m new to 3D printing, chitubox is not working for me in a simplicity way. I was wondering what you recommend for me to use lychee free or the pro version? Oh I’ll be running the program on macOS and my printer is elegoo Saturn 4 ultra if that helps? I greatly appreciate your time and advice.

link model 3d print ?

My prints come out mirror, and I can't correct that mistake, I always have to mirror each piece before slicing. 6.2 Issues

How would you support 1 2/4th model car parts to print.

I wish the auto-support worked that well for me. It'd supporting the base but not the rest of my miniature and I cannot make it add the supports where I need them. Ive never had this issue with Chitubox

Since last week, performance went through the gutter to where the program was not usable.

Thanks for the video. I have a mac mini with 32gb memory and always have a lag when slicing in Lychee Pro. The fast slicing looks amazing. Where can I find the beta for this?

The stuttering was always a part of it , on all my pc''s

I experienced the stuttering since I started using lychee 2 years ago. I just accepted it as the price of doing business. Would be great if there's a fix for it though 😂

Does it support wireless transfer to the s4 ultra?

like the video. nice info not only for this kind of moddeling.

Anyone else reminded of Catherine Zeta-Jones in that heist movie from the early 2000s?

you should put the lid on the tin when you got your portion out, esp when fumbling around with a UV light in its vicinity

11/10 model choice for a normal 3d printing video. You are out of pocket as hell.

I can happily report that your preferred settings worked well for me on the Uniformation GKTwo at 50um resolution. I print dental models, so there’s lot of curves and points that now look nicer and have less ringing print lines. It’s an aesthetic upgrade and probably only I notice it but I can see it mattering more for printing those minis and figures. Your Lychee settings were Smooth surfaces. Radius 4. Grey offset 50%. HD-on. AA on supports - OFF

Definitely a needed product for finishing and gap or hole filling. The sticky, gel-like consistency has some uses and probably can be thinned down slightly if you need a bit more flowability but not runny like using resin from a bottle would be. On the other side, having a less sticky, more “putty” like consistency, like “milliput” or like “plumber’s putty” (or any number of uv-curing or air-curing resin putties you can find at your hardware store, would be great from Funcrecol, if they wanted to make such a thing.

Of all the models you could use you had to use that one

I swear Lechee should hire you to do these videos for them. I've learned more watching your videos that all the videos that Lechee has on their web site. Thank you very much !!

Amazing job, thanks!

Could you do a video explaining how to print stuff flat on the buildplate with no supports. I used to be able to get mine to work just fine but since the update things are coming out too thick when I print them eg. Print is flat and supposed to be 3-4mm but it coming out as 7mm thick and I haven't any idea how to figure out why or how to fix it? Bottom layers overexposed? or resin too cold? or even is my printer mad that I sneezed in it's presence 😂 any help greatly appreciated

Hi dude Always love your videos. Theese days i m noticing tha sometimes supports made with grid are generating Island...mostly due to tip lenght...nut if i make them to short kind of melt when printed. Have you noticed something similar?

Great instructional video! Thanks! Hard to believe that only 3 months ago I was watching these videos while hyperventilating over the idea of self bracing. Now I won't use a presupported model and am printing every day. I am thoroughly enjoying both the grid system and the new bracing, and based of watching you professionals, and a lot of testing, I am developing my own flavor (I never would have thought that). 😊 I seem to be gravitating towards more lighter supports over fewer stronger ones. Thank you again for the great content. Very much enjoying all the videos and the community. It's a great hobby to be part of.

As again thank u and best explanation ever

Thanks! Very helpful walkthrough of the grid support preset process. The grid support feature looks definitely cleaner and less chaotic than the default support feature.

Ur videos are just awesome.

Came for 4 pics stayed for the presentation

how does smooth surface , compared to sharpen details setting , influence the detail on a print , like a figurine , for example. Do you lose detail with smooth surface ?

I only have Small Object Bracing, Tall Object Bracing, Strong Bracing and Default Bracing in my Support Bracing Presets. Where'd you get the others, like "Small Strong Object" from? I also have Lychee Pro

Good video! Only two things I would change: voice audio was a bit too quiet, and more importantly - gif is not a brand of peanut butter, don't be a communist, give it a hard 'g'. I look forward to watching the comparison video.

Is there a specific reason to go from small to bigger layer?

The best explaination ever.

Ah, Digital Dark Pinups. 😊

Hey! Great video! My team and I discovered the layer specific island scans a few years back and I published a very similar workflow for (what I call) "Semi-Auto supports" for minis in one of my videos. I think it's a really good entry level option for users who want to try to kitbash, use eldritch foundry or the such, or for users buying from smaller artists who cant afford to pay for professional presupports! That said, you can take the technique even a step further. Little known fact, Real island scan not only takes layer height into account, but also XY pixel size! If you want to be even more particular or carve out even finer details, you can scan using 2 different pixel sizes too! Like the original Saturn has a 50um XY res and the Saturn 2 has a 28um. This is taking it to a level most probably don't need, but for the obsessive people out there, this is a trick to taking things further. Good on you man for getting out there and teaching others! We need more people in our community who are putting in the work to educate and share their knowledge! You got a new subscriber :D

The future is AI-placed supports. Lychee needs to get on this while they can still be the front-runner. Whoever does this well first will have a huge advantage in the marketplace. Most of my time printing is spent placing supports, with the 2nd largest annoyance being trying to remove them without damaging the model. Nothing will save users more time. I would select any slicer that does this well using AI over any other slicer that does not. It would make printing MUCH more enjoyable, and would significantly increase the amount of printing that I do.

Have you tried it on a Photon M3 yet?

little late to the party, but is the smart support system available in the Elegoo version of the slicer? I haven't seen it and was wondering if I just needed to click a checkbox somewhere

Great video!! I just found your channel, so new subscriber here!

Yes would love a hollowing video if possible. Love your videos man TY

Thanks for the video!!! Is the Anti-Alisasing done BY Lychee (in its slicing process), or is it done by the PRINTER itself (and Lychee only sent it commands to do those values). I guess seeing all printers are different in what they would give, this must be done by LYCHEE really. (?)

There is no "Infill" in new version. What to do?

Thanks for the video. I just upgraded to this version. With that said do you think the auto support is good enough for successful prints than in the past? If you still add supports after the auto supports what percentage do you add? 10? 20? 30%? Sub'd and liked.

Man i have a lot less failure and overall improved printing quality so big big thank to you!!

Nice, I’m going to use it on my jawblade from Monster Hunter.

Watched this when it came out, came to check back on some notes and I can't believe this has just 52 likes. This is great content and you're great at explaining stuff.

I am a complete noob.....what are people using to design their 3d model? Also can you take a 2d AI generated image and make a 3d printed version of it?

What's the meaning o "grey offset"?

Thanks for the video on delicate objects and your very light supports and their very small tips. Will definitely help when those delicate objects come up.

This is an excellent video. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and experience!

Seems like 30min of video is kinda of a lot of video for basically "put many supports in the areas highligted in yellow".. however, I'd like a part 2 where you show the end result and how the supports are seen and left. otherwise nice vid!
