Still set at .4. I did not know I need to change that. I did some reading just now and not sure if I'm correct or not but I should be increasing this value when I lower the layer height? .5mm sound correct? (I'm doing everything I can to learn here!)

Thanks much for the help.

Here's a new example.

The left model is printed via Cura at .1mm layer height. The right two are printed via simplify3D at .1mm layer height with the VEDual PLA Left Single Extruder profile found here on the forums.

What am I doing wrong?

Yeah I picked that model specifically to have the seam stand out (or zits when I randomize start points). I'll make some changes tonight and update this thread probably tomorrow.

Thanks for the help!

Jules,

Can you explain this more?

should I go back to these settings as "square one" and start again tweaking?

Your retraction at 6.00mm seems really high. :shock: (don't think I've gone over 2mm) You can try playing with the coast & wipe settings too but it helps to watch and see if the blobs are forming at the start of the layer or at the end. Agreed on the 6.00mm but tried it as a "what the hell, because...

Have a look here https://www.simplify3d.com/support/print-quality-troubleshooting/#blobs-and-zits Thanks, I've seen that and made many of my changes based on it. It hasn't helped much. I feel like I'm missing something small as the issue ONLY seems to be in Simplify3D. I'm open to all suggestions a...

Hi All, New(er) Makergear M2 dual extruder owner here and I'm about to pull my remaining hair out over my prints from Simplify3D. I've upgraded from a Wanhao i3 to the Makergear. My prints from Simplifiy3D have blobs and zits but my prints from Cura do not. I've attached some pictures below. You can...
