I just installed orca yesterday! The appimage mostly worked, but it wouldn't actually slice. I removed that, and found it in AUR, installed that version, and it's been working great. It doesn't support my printer, so I can't print directly, but I can save the stl file and then copy that over to print. I made a small plaque yesterday and printed it, and everything worked fine. (Garuda Linux, Arch derivative).
There is a Flatpak as well which is working really well. I had some issues with the app image in the past
I looked for the flatpak in discover, but didn't find it. I didn't bother looking further than that.
Its not in Flathub. You need to download the Flatpak file from GitHub
Ah, that's why.
With the number of (custom) printers supported by Orca you picked my interest :) What's your printer?
The Anycubic Kobra 3 v2. There might be a plugin or something, I didn't play with it much, but by default it's not in the list. When I picked a close one (the Kobra v2) I pointed it to my printer's IP and it wouldn't connect properly.
Ok. I didn't find anything specific for Kobra 3 v2 (though I didn't spend more than 5 minutes ^^), but I came across this profile for Kobra 3. Maybe you'll get lucky with it... https://www.printables.com/model/982339-anycubic-kobra-3-orca-profile-v2-tested-verified-w
Thanks I'll give that a try
