Sorry for my abscense, people My computer had a total crash yesterday and became unoperatable, so we had to wait for a computer technician to come fix it today, then some other things. However, he deleted the temporary files, which were a part of the problem (I had 3 gigabytes of them, rofl, I didn't realize I had that much ), and took out a defective RAM disk, another cause of the problem (but I lost 2/3 of my RAM because of that, so my computer runs veeery slowly now --- took 3 minutes to open up IE, lol!).
I, unfortunately, lost the terrain map (it was stored in my temp files by mistake), so I will need to start back from Alexander's copy
Sorry, everybody, just thought I would fill you in on what happened
You can post your comments there too so I don't need to go back and forth
Ya, they are still very WIP, I haven't really started in on making them look beutiful yet, but rather wanted to inform you guys and get some constructive criticism
Thanks, Jindo, I was going for a creepy look :shades: (lol, part of the building appears in the distance but the bottom part is invisible because of the distance )
And thanks, conan, athough I don't know what FTW is ... It actually looks pretty decent from a bird's eye view, too Although it does help to see the sky from this angle ...
ima have to agree with Jindo on the first, exepct for two things, every thing is waaaaay to spaced out, and semetry in a grave yard? looks kinda cool, but not as "real" as i could.
as for the secon one, i take its a town?, all's good thier!
Shadowy made the town of Merra. I'm looking at everything he's done, right now (he sent me the map) and I have to say, dude, it kicks butt! \m/ (>.<) \m/
Anyway.
Yeah, it was POSSIBLE there would be 2 more As it is, we've agreed on ONE, and left the other one for later, if at all
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.
@tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
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
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
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.
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
