⚠️ EXPERIMENTAL BUILD - NOT TESTED ⚠️

Based on Snapmaker Orca v2.2.4

v0.6 full spectrum alpha, now with local-Z control, manual layer patterns, and much better settings reliability.

THIS HAS NOT BEEN TESTED ON ACTUAL HARDWARE!

What's New in v0.6

Manual Pattern Mixed Filaments (v0.6)

  • Pattern add button in Mixed Filaments UI (alongside Gradient add)
  • Create custom repeating layer patterns (e.g., 11112222 for 4:4 ratio)
  • Pattern parser accepts 1/2 or A/B with separators (/, -, _, |, etc.)
  • Manual pattern takes precedence; blend percentage auto-derived from pattern
  • Backward-compatible with older row formats

Local Z Dithering Mode (v0.4)

  • New Local Z dithering mode in Process → Others (dithering_local_z_mode)
  • Mixed-painted zones split into local sub-passes with pass-specific flow height
  • Perimeter clipping logic separates mixed passes from base passes more cleanly
  • Runtime guard: disabled when wipe tower or wiping overrides are active

Config/Save/Load Reliability Fixes (v0.5)

  • Config comparison now checks type + value (not only value)
  • Improved dirty-state detection, diffing, and unsaved-changes behavior
  • Mixed filament project settings load more consistently
  • Stronger logging for mixed-row parsing and config application

Installation

  1. Download Snapmaker_Orca.zip
  2. Extract to a folder
  3. Run the executable

⚠️ Warning

  • Use at your own risk
  • May produce incorrect G-code
  • Local-Z behavior is especially experimental
  • Seeking testers with U1 printers

Known Issues

  • Untested on real hardware
  • Local-Z mode needs testing with actual prints
  • Advanced dithering output may require calibration
  • Startup crash may occur (needs further debugging)
