What are causing these bumps in my print? The only thing different about the print is that I had to change the filament half way through.
Pillowing?

Cura 5.3.1 won't fill the shell on part of the print, instead has exposed infill
Looks like coasting is turned on. You may want to turn it off, but you also may want to understand the setting. Read this article from the Settings Guide plugin: https://github.com/Ghostkeeper/SettingsGuide/blob/master/resources/articles/experimental/coasting_enable.md

Why does Cura only print this top part of my .obj?
Might be a non-manifold mesh, might be walls that are too thin to print. https://github.com/Ghostkeeper/SettingsGuide/blob/master/resources/articles/troubleshooting/missing_parts.md
- Rugged surface across the whole print
- Help! Cura will not slice my 3d model correctly.
- Gaps between perimeter and the infill
- i am trying to print this model wheel i made, idk why is cura infilling whole wheel even with 0% infill and no supports, why is this happening ? i see that it says some errors in model but what errors?
- why is cura failing to slice a very simple object?

Line height difference problem

Problem with slicing. As seen below my geometry looks fine, but when sliced there's a big open gap that gets filled with supports. Anyone know what could be causing this??
In addition to what /u/Asterchades says, here's an explanation of why an "uneven number of walls" is a problem for a slicer: https://github.com/Ghostkeeper/SettingsGuide/blob/master/resources/articles/troubleshooting/missing_parts.md

Creality Print vs Cura: Speed
So I'm using beta version of Cura (5.5.0) with V3 SE profile from https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/pull/16796 and I just figured out that Creality print is way faster than Cura. As far as I can see, settings are almost identical; print speed is set to 180mm/s in both programs. I'm using stock PLA profile in Creality print and eSun pla+ profile in Cura - same temperature, infill, walls and fan settings.

New Feature for Cura?
In this case, Cura is an open source project, so the most straightforward way of submitting a feature request would be by creating an Issue in the code repository, where you can explain your idea along with why it’s important to you, who else you think it could be valuable to, and what you want both minimally and ideally.

Updated to Cura 5.4 and it wiped everything, now I cannot select Ender 3 S1 Pro. Any suggestions?
If you're using the Startup Optimizer plugin, try disabling it temporarily - it can occasionally interfere with the list of available printers. Should that not help you could manually re-insert the profile by copying this JSON into the appropriate directory (eg C:\Program Files\UltiMaker Cura 5.4.0\share\cura\resource\definitions).
