Tl;dr - chitubox won’t save model changes or supports to a project

I have a chitubox question. I know that’s not the focus of this group so mods please delete if not allowed.

Last night I was working on adding supports for the first time in Chitubox. I got to a good spot and then saved the project (file>save project) which created a .chitubox file. However, when I opened it back up just to double check something the miniature I had originally placed in (a model scaler I deleted after finding the right size for my print) was there instead and the miniature and supports I spent about half an hour working on were gone. In an effort to trial and error I tried to start again, used the save button. No dice. I tried again with the save as function. Still nothing.

Am I missing a step here? I only downloaded Chitubox about a week ago so I assume the version is updated. Is this a bug?

Please forgive me because I have not looked at this group in a while and this question may have been answered already. Did AnyCubic fix the issue with there new "classic" photons so that they read the .photons file formate from Chitubox? I'm looking to get a new photon and I'm afraid that I will get a newer one that will not read all my files and will have to reslice them. THanks

Just curious if any one has tried the flexible UV print resin in their Photon yet? If so any comments, problems, suggestions ?

Anyone else’s get three files from Anycubic for Black Friday? Just got an email from them with two dragons and a dwarf mini

I recently got a Photon S for Black Friday and have been running a bunch of test prints to try new techniques and burn through the base resin. Printing high quality single figures and other large models has worked like a charm. I tried to see if I could batch print some generic baddies at once and had these results come morning. Two models turned out fine, one was warped, and three didn't build beyond what you see.

Is this an issue with my build platform not being level, with inadequate support count/thickness, or am I just expecting too much by trying to print 6 figures at once?

I'm guessing that, moving forward, I'll try to limit to ~3 figures per print, overdo the supports, and print at angles to maximize print quality. Any other thoughts on batch printing?

So what settings are people using for the AnyCubic clear resin? I tried using the second settings from the Anycubic Photon Best Resin Settings sheet (100 second base exposure, 8 base layers, 8 second layer exposure, .025 layer height, room in mid 70s temp) and I got some really bad results.

Lots of globs of cured resin that I'm sure happened from the UV shining through the resin and curing extra resin. The globs were especially bad in areas where there were lots of supports like on the bottom of the bases on the miniatures, and in other areas with undercuts. All in places where the resin wouldn't flow off a shelf well and tend to have the same bit of resin staying in a spot for a long period of time.

All my minis are now weeble wobbles as the bottoms of the bases are domed with a mound of cured resin on them. Granted the bottoms are easily fixed, but the other areas are not as easily repaired, Also lots of yellowing of the resin. Obviously from too long exposure times. I also had to result to using a metal razor blade to remove them from the build plate. The plastic razor blades I've been using, just couldn't get under them.

These were the least aggressive settings listed. Obviously I need to go with shorter times. Also in the document it lists off times, but in Chitubox I don't see off time, just Light-off Delay and Bottom Light-off Delay. Are those the same as off-time? Reading the Chitubox documentation I couldn't figure out if these were the same

Unfortunately my cell phone also died last night just before my last print finished, so I don't have pictures to show. I went pretty heavy on the supports under the bases, so I imagine I can resolve some of that by reducing the number of supports on the bottoms of the bases, but I'm sure it's not going to solve it completely as there are areas without lots of supports with the issue.

Obviously I can experiment, but I'd like to see if anyone has a better starting point as those settings aren't even close, and they were the least aggressive of the three sets.
