I’ve had this happen a couple of times before but granted with designs that feature more complex geometry.
Last night I uploaded a design ready to go live on Wednesday and it’s failed, but it’s an incredibly simple design (geometry wise) and there are designs with far more detail already on MakerWorld.
I’m presuming this is only referencing the 3mf profile I uploaded and not the stl files?
I can’t simplify the design more than I have, and if I increase later height the design won’t work (or at least won’t look good).
Has anyone got any suggestions of how to get this through?
It’s almost like Bambu don’t want me to share my designs on their site. If this isn’t sorted by Tuesday evening it will become a Printables.com exclusive as I have no issues sharing it on there. However I would prefer it if my catalogue was matched on both platforms.
That’s the thing, as I said, it’s not big. I’ve already uploaded and shared far larger and more complex 3mfs on MakerWorld.
The 3MF is only 5.97MB and it takes around 37 seconds to slice on my computer.
Hey are you still up for having a look at it.
My assumption is it’s as a result of the largest part which has a layer height of 0.1mm.
I tried changing that to 0.2mm and re-sliced and the slicing took just over half the amount of time on my computer.
I’ve currently got it verifying with that new profile on MakerWorld but it’s not ideal as it may not function as well with that layer height and I’ve had to put a suggestion on the listing that people change the layer height back to 0.1mm before printing (which then means no one would ever be able to rate my item).
An alternative is to split it into multiple profiles but that also isn’t ideal.
This file size limit is so incredibly restrictive and unnecessary.
Just an update on that test with changing the layer height to 0.2mm, it failed again
Ok I figured out what was causing the issue. I had some support material (tree Manual) on one of the models. Not a huge amount, only a diameter of 60mm (with a gap of around 30mm diameter in the middle with no support), and only around 10mm high.
That was apparently it. I switched that to ordinary support (still manual) and it got accepted straight away.
What a stupid problem MakerWorld imposes on itself.
