Really wish SS had tree supports. . . How do you like orca over SS? I'm new to slicers but started with SS and it seems great, but I don't know what "great" translates to, since I'm a newbie

I have used both SuperSlicer and OrcaSlicer, and am now using the beta version of PrusaSlicer 2.6 for all the new features, including organic supports. Both SuperSlicer and OrcaSlicer benefit from all the development work done by the Prusa software team. They are also each maintained and updated by a single person. In the case of SuperSlicer, updates have slowed down. Just remember if you invest in converting your profiles and workflow to forks that don't have the stability of a company like Prusa backing them, you are depending on a single person for maintenance, updating, and bug fixes.

I guess you've convinced me to give it a try. I've spent my 4+ years printing all on PrusaSlicer and the largest inconvenience was learning how to set up any calibration test prints. The positive of course being that I was forced to learn more about G-code and how my printer "thinks" but I love the pre-designed ability for those newer to printing who could most use the fine-tuning a full calibration suite can give you.

Only reason I use SuperSlicer over PrusaSlicer is because of SuperSlicers built in calibrations (which is where Orca must have gained the inspiration from). Definitely keen to give Orca a try!

Trust me I love the SUPER in depth settings for cura, but in most cases feel they are best left along unless you rTRULY know what the do and how their effects have outcomes on other settings. Orca is more of a set it and forget it deal. Quality is amazing too! Ender 3 S1 pro with Klipper (sonic pad) and Bamu P1S...both now fueled by Orca as of now.

Yep. I made the switch from Cura 5.4 and Prusa 2.6 to Orca Slicer for my Flsun V400. It works great!

Thanks! Going to give it a try!

My current favourite slicer is SuperSlicer. It has many of the features of Orca slicer, like the calibration prints, while still having a the user interface structured like prusa slicer which I personally prefer over the layout in Cura or Orca slicer.

Two thoughts on OrcaSlicer: 1) I tried OrcaSlicer a tiny bit and came away unimpressed. Scenario: I'm at work, looking to slice a few files to print at home because I want to add some custom text and it's frankly easier to do it here than it is in Tinkercad. I configure the slicer for my Ender 3, edit a few of the default settings to account for my mods/upgrades, slap some text on my design, and notice that a brim is enabled by default. Strange, but it seems easy enough to just go with a skirt like normal...and then my print had both a skirt and a brim. Rather than struggle to get the slicer to do one of the more basic things in 3D printing, I just sucked it up and added text in Tinkercad. 2) There is a downside to a slicer fork being maintained by one person, and we're seeing that in real time with SuperSlicer: when the person driving the bus gives up for one reason or another, that's it...the project is dead. If SoftFever gets hit by a bus tomorrow, who takes over? Major development in SuperSlicer seems to have died out last September, with only one beta release since then and little to no updating going on with issues or pull requests since April. I'm now glad I dragged my feet on getting set up in SuperSlicer, and because of that experience I'd rather stick with trusty Cura than go down the "lone developer" route again.

Just a small correction. This is NOT the first slicer that came with calibration scripts/parts in it. If you remember first beta of netfabb slicer and later on nefabb studio slicer it came with calibration objects for acceleration, for speed, for flow rate... they used the set of triangles, squares and arc's and procedures to follow to properly calibrate slicer settings using them :) .. this was almost 15 years ago :D ... they also had some ingenious idea for raft that sits on "blobs" that would allow printing on very uneven bed and very easy release of the raft from the bed (not important today with modern beds but if you remember we used acrylic beds without heaters back then)

I don't know ... I think I prefer the PrusaSlicer layout, maybe because I am used to this since a long time now. Bambu Studio is based on PrusaSlicer but removed some "unused" features like support for multiple extruders. That means that, currently, OrcaSlicer does not support multiple extruders and that is kind of a show stopper for me since I just built a custom Jubilee3D tool changer printer that I need to configure.

i have been printing for only a few months started with a aquila X2 now have a tronxy X5SA with a lerdge board kit fitted. was using cura but switched over to prusa as for some reason the lerdge system went to home after a print even if not in end g code. so switched to supper slicer all was good then i thought i will try orca slicer and i now find it prints better and faster print times. i use the ratrig profile with a couple of tweeks but cant get it to pause but prusa will for 2 layer prints. sooner i get the orca slicer to do 2 layer prints the better.

I only recently switched to Orca Slicer. But I really like it. 👍 I used to use the CURA slicer because I have a modified Ender S1 Pro with Klipper. But since I have ordered and am waiting for delivery of the new BambuLab P1S with AMS. I wanted to try what it would be like to work with their slicer (or its equivalent). And I have to say, working with this slicer is very pleasant. It allows all the important settings, but the user doesn't have to be a rocket scientist to use it. 🤣 Most importantly, after calibration, my prints are better quality and also faster than on a similarly tuned profile that I used in the CURA slicer. Of course, the unification of slicer and printer control is very nice. But I consider it "something extra". I didn't mind operating the printer in a web browser and having the slicer next to it in a window. On the contrary, sometimes I happen to forget and look for the slicer window. While I'm already in it, but on the Klipper control tab. 🙄 And of course, I read somewhere that the whole project rests on the shoulders of one man. I'm a little worried about that. It wouldn't be the first time such a strategy has failed. On the other hand, I learned the controls in less than an hour, and the calibration for all the materials I use took about a day. So I'm willing to risk it and I'll hope nothing bad happens. I'm not saying Orca or Cura is better. But my experience made me change my primary slicer. And I would encourage everyone to at least try it and make up their own mind. 😎

Been using orcaslicer since some time now. My printing results were clearly better than with prusa or cura. Great thing I found so useful in orcaslicer is the lightning infill, saves at least 30% on filament. I actually changed to orca because of the changeable direction per layer on overhangs, gave much better results.

a feature I am looing for is the ability to que up prints. Making it simple to define the next print. simple enough that I could have someone change the plate and press next.

I've tried Orca Slicer a bit and it's been pretty good so far. I still prefer the UI and layout of SuperSlicer (probably just because I'm used to it), but I hope all the new features Prusa/Orca Slicer already have are coming to SuSl soon (I know the dev is working on it)!

I've been enjoying Prusa Slicer for a couple of years, but Orca Slicer looks interesting and I will give it a try. Simplify3D, Cura, Prusa Slicer... all seemed to have trouble with simple printer configurations and filament configurations. I'd make a small temporary change to a print variable and would be surprised that it was saved in a profile with a non-intuitive name. It just seems more confusing than it should be, although slicers are getting better.

I'm waiting for my K1 to arrive, I don't know how it's slicer functions but I certainly like to try orca slicer.

It’s ten times more user friendly for the new user all the way to the seasoned user/printer. So, until folks stop comparing their slicer to Cura, and using Cura as the benchmark for the best slicer, I’ll be using it.

I tried Orca yet it comes up taking way longer than Prusa. I did a simple helmet and Prusa said 1 day 15 hours and Orca says 3 days.

Is any of these slicers working in cloud within the browser? Would be much easier to integrate and update within schoolar environment with restricted install permission

Cura has never let me down

❓The only important question for me is: How fast will/can OrcaSlicer implement new features from PrusaSlicer (like e.g. MeassuringTools, WarpingText, CuttingFuntions, ...)?

Good question...

Links to the software?

As a note, orca has a very small list of older printers. For instance it doesn’t support my anycubic predator

Looking for Orca slicer information

I have tried Orca Slicer, but every other time I use it, my mk3s+ crashes in X axis or Y axis.

How does Orca compare to Cura?
