Has anyone downloaded the new bambu studio update? I feel as though every time I update to the newest versions, I have issues. I am having issues with the version before this one. Ever since I updated last time I have issues with changing colors, text editing, and printing things I know are not floating. I am wondering if I update to this new 2.8.2.60 version if it will fix the problems, make things worse, or create a new problems? I am also wondering if there is a way to switch back to an older version of the bambu studio? Thanks!

Hello! I bought a flexy factory snake digital copy to make for my son for his birthday and also to hand out as party favors. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have tried a textured plate a smooth plate and the same thing happens where a little over 2 hours in, pieces of the snake start to move and come up. I was able to glue a piece down for one snake and it worked but it has not worked again. I make sure every time I make a print I wash my plates and one time I put glue all over the plate before printing and it still came up in parts. I am not sure what to do or what is going on. I do have an enclosed 3D printer, I don't know if that makes a difference or not. I tried different filaments to see if that work as well, it still came up! I looked it up and it said make sure the plate is clean, which it is. I have had to stop it on 3 different snakes and completely get rid of them. It is not like it is happening at the beginning but it is when they have been printing for a long time. I gave up on the snake and printed a dragon about the same size as the snake and the dragon printed just fine. I also printed a couple more things and had no issue. Do you think I should add supports for the snake? It says on the thing it does not need them but maybe it does 🤷If anyone has any idea please let me know! I don't think I am going to get them done before his Bday, each snake takes about 7 hours. This is one of the only things he picked out that he wanted😔 it is also frustrating since I bought the copy.

I am new to 3D printing and trying to learn as much as I can. I saw on here someone who posted about how they were new as well and there was a lot of really good advice people gave. I have been trying to find that thread on here again and I cannot find it 🤦 I knew I should have saved it. Anyways I was wondering before I buy a lot more filament what type would be the best kind to stock up on? Just a basic PLA? I was looking at matte but read it breaks easy. 🤷 I have a P2s and I seem to like it so far, just trying to learn the basics first but eventually I would like to program/create my own stuff. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks! I did not realize how much fun I would have 3D printing!!
