What the heck is going on with this print on my dialed in printer?
/** * S-Curve Acceleration * * This option eliminates vibration during printing by fitting a Bézier * curve to move acceleration, producing much smoother direction changes. * * See https://github.com/synthetos/TinyG/wiki/Jerk-Controlled-Motion-Explained */ #define S_CURVE_ACCELERATION

Ender 5, firmware 4.2.7 silent board
I installed a CRTouch on my Ender 5 Pro, and I didn't want to mess around with swapping wires, so I just compiled Marlin with CRTouch/BLTouch support. Although, I'm a software developer by profession, so there wasn't anything too foreign to me about setting this all up. The biggest advantage of compiling it yourself is you get all the latest features and bug fixes, and you can mess with some of the more interesting features like S_CURVE_ACCELERATION. The disadvantages are that you have to go through the effort of building it, you also get all the latest bugs, and you may have to bang your head against a wall a few times when things don't work. :P

Firware recommendations
There's 2 things I would recommend if you're going to use my firmware: E-step calibration and PID tuning for the hotend and bed. --Host action commands enables better communication between the printer and octoprint, the screen firmware on the N3 limits some of the features though unfortunately. -- PID is a more efficient heating process, it uses variable power for heating the bed instead of bang-bang which is on or off, at least that's my understanding. -- Here's some information on S Curve: https://github.com/synthetos/TinyG/wiki/Jerk-Controlled-Motion-Explained --M48 let's you test the probe accuracy, it will probe a set number of times in a single spot and tell you the variance between the individual probes and give you an average deviation etc. --G26 does a first layer test print.
- Wondering if anyone could dummy check/give some input on my build/upgrades

Custom firmware with the true Dual Z mod
So i have been experimenting with firmwares for n3 and came accross this Firmware. Did anyone try it? How was the experience? Anyone used it with true dual z mod?

dual color prints using modified firmware (manual filament change)
- I forked Marlin (the original source code of the firmware), applied all the changes that Elegoo had added, and enabled many more features, trying to document all my changes. You can find that firmware including a changelog here.

Which I did just now, you can find the github release here, with a detailed changelog: https://github.com/Krifto/Marlin-Neptune3/releases
