Getting Real Sick & Tired of The Creality Print Crashing

@gozmon (like on a monkey) LOL, yeah like that but however the way I have it designed the fur isn’t detailed enough to make the polycount so drastic or a problematic thing. Hopefully you will see in a few weeks. And yeah breaking it up in parts is not ideal to me. However the way I chopped up the model, I’m able to swap them in/out. Now my thinking maybe wrong, but I thing if it’s in smaller manageable parts. The system/app we be able to manage it better as opposed to a larger part. I will keep you posted here or directly. Big ups to you my dude :rofl:(like on a monkey :rofl:)

@gozmon it finally work dude, So I see what I have to do although it was my plan to start with a plug and print setup. But for whatever reason I merged the body & mouth together which then later created slicing issues. Which still baffles me because it sliced before :man_shrugging: . Oh well whatever, Now just to print and do my thing I’ll message you a screenshot.

NOTE: Where quotes (") are used, they are for definition. Do NOT copy the quotes into the text fields indicated.

For Creality Print, the issue seems to be that it takes all available threads on your PC and possibly causes windows to dump the process causing the crash. You have the ability to limit the number of CPU’s the process can affiliate with, and this has eliminated crashes in Creality Print completely.

  1. Close all Creality Print windows and Open a single instance of Creality Print
  2. Hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete, find “CrealityPrint” process in the list
  3. Right click on “CrealityPrint” and select “Go To Details”
  4. Find “CrealityPrint.exe” in the list
  5. Right click on “CrealityPrint.exe” and select “Properties”, move the window so you can still see the list
  6. Right click on “CrealityPrint.exe” and select “Set Affinity”. This shows the CPUs the process can access
  7. Uncheck “All Processors” and only check a few of them and click “OK”
  8. Go try to slice. If it works without crashing, do the following:

a) Copy the “Location” from the “CrealityPrint.exe Properties” window still open
b) Right click on your desktop and select “New” then “Shortcut”
c) In the location text box, enter the location from step a, and add “\CrealityPrint.exe” to the end and click “Next”
d) Type “Creality Print (Restricted)” in the text box and click Finish
e) Right click on the new shortcut you just added and select “Properties”
f) Put the following in the the “Target” text box, then click “OK”

%ComSpec% /C Start /Normal /Affinity 2 CrealityPrint.exe

This will start Creality Print for you, and restrict the affinity to just the second CPU, and keeps you from having to go through the first set of instructions repeatedly. You can change the “2” in the target to another HEX value that represents the number of CPUs, but I’m not getting into that at this point.

I’m not offering any support to this, and will most likely not be back to follow up on responses.
