How to Setup Flash Forge Creator Pro Software Part 3 of 3



In this video tutorial you will find how to setup the software that are needed to make your 3D prints easy using FlashForge Creator Pro. 

You will need to download 5 software:
* Replicator G : You can find it within the SD card or download it from raplicat.org
* PyPy - python library that Replicator depends on as interpreter. Download from : http://pypy.org/
* Slic3r - slicing software of your STL files to generate the G-Codes. Can Download from : Slic3r.org
* GPX - software that tells slic3r to produce x3g that way you can put it in the SD card and print it from the printer ( VS sending it via USB). Can be Downloaded here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:81425
* 3D CAD software: I'm using 123D Design. Can be downloaded here:http://www.123dapp.com/design

The text file for setting up the profiles in slic3r can be found at this google drive location: https://drive.google.com/folderview?i...

You can also download the files from my website here:

  1. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge! I have one question... My prints are starting before preheating ends. If I preheat the Creator Pro before I engage printing, then it works fine; however, otherwise, there are problems. Is there something with the G Code I can look into that you know of?
    Thank you!
