Why am I not getting points from print profiles?

Am I doing something wrong or is it just a bug on the MakerWorld site?

I have a rating greater than 4 I already have 410 downloads and 176 prints and I have not received any points from print profiles. I got points from downloading and uploading 5 models.

My print profile on my model:

points from uploaded models:

points from downloading:

I also uploaded 3 models with print profiles and none of the upload a print profiles were added.

They’ve changed the point system. Maybe we should pull models when they hit the caps? :grin:

Points are normally added to my print profiles up to print profiles. It is a profile with a rating of more than 4 and according to this it should give me points for example for 10 downloads but even though I already have 3 print profiles on 3 of my models it hasn’t given me anything from print profiles.

Could it be because it’s a print profile for a prusa printer?

Not sure on that one. Since they changed it up, I quit paying much attention. Hope you get it sorted.

NGL that sounds like them. I honestly didn’t even know you could upload those.

Yes, that is the reason.

I do not see a business incentive for BL to provide rewards for printing on other printers.

You get points for the model because those who own BL printers can print the model if they download it and create a print profile themselves.

It is totally because it is a Prusa printer. I started here when I had a Prusa but didn’t have a Bambu printer, and ran into this as well – various promised points and such just never happen if you upload Prusa profiles. It is short-sighted on Bambu’s part, honestly. Making Prusa users feel like second-class users here isn’t going to give them a warm and fuzzy feeling about purchasing from Bambu eventually.

I do have an A1Mini now but I definitely think less of Bambu over this whole thing. Printables is way friendlier to non-Prusa users than Makerworld is to non-Bambu users. I earned a bunch of filament from Printables when I just had an Ender 3 Pro.

Yep, It’s because they are not bbl printers profiles. I had the same issue as you. I bet it’s the same thing for the rating points.
You’re even luck to have successful prints on your print profile. Because that means they were printed on a bbl printer. So users opened your 3mf on BambuStudio and changed the printer preset to a bbl printer.

So if I was you I’ll update this print profile for a A1 Mini and see if you receive your points
