Other members of the forum are able to vote, at least I believe :p

It can't be made for "some" persons only... My guess is that.

Why is everyone thinking that Andrew kicks their asses? You should beware me instead :p

Everyone who wished has been added.

> Which one is it, then?

The grades will both:

1. Allow members to get an idea of the tower at a glance.

2. Help to break any ties.

> I'll use the map from the first tower contest as a template, if that's ok?

Waaaaagh is creating a new template if you would rather use that.

> I'd use a Trigger Comment.

That is what I would prefer.

A simple question. Do I need to use the template given? I have already started on my own.

I'll probably use the template anyways :p

I would prefer if you turned it in as the template. Though, I won't count off points or anything if you don't.

I updated the template a couple times. Make sure you have the latest version.

Use the template or I will sick Waaaaagh on you. It will make the compilation process oh so very much easier for me/more likely Waaaaagh.

Geez, Ghan. This is the second time I've had to correct you in this thread...

Don't mind Waaaaagh. I try to keep him locked up, but sometimes he gets out.

I must say, this new template map has some nice terrain. I think it will make it much easier for the entrants to test, since it's already all set up with a never-ending spawn and a decent path.

Err.... Assuming you didn't change the template... well... That was probably the simplest terrain ever. 32x32 wins. Hard. Neverending spawns was equally easy. I'm gonna guess that Ghan added some comments or something... I dunno.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
