Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Why no REAL sliced 3D representation in ANY slicer software??
- is this enough supports
-
Unknown file type
Does UVTools recognize the files?
-
Off label use, photoresist etching
As for this, you could try UVTools. I just used it to open an existing ctb file (any will do), remove all layers but one, and then replace that layer with a monochrome image file of my choosing.
-
Well... that's new.
If only to rule out some kind of fault with the file itself, if you download UVTools, github here... https://github.com/sn4k3/UVtools/releases ...then you could import your sliced file (the .pwma file) and just check to see if those layers existed.

First print
I do cubes of calibration then cones of calibration as the video above teaches. Then I followed UVTools guide on rest times and z-axis tuning, including using his modded gcode file to slow down the acceleration rates of the z-axis motor https://github.com/sn4k3/UVtools/wiki/Rest-times-and-TSMC. I use this print to test for bloom, layer lines and anti-aliasing performance https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/print-angle-model. Dennys Wang has a good video using it https://youtu.be/cGAgyRVK32g

Weird printer fail
https://github.com/sn4k3/UVtools/releases/ I think when you install it, and you run a slice with lychee, you get a pop up asking if you want to check with UVTools. Otherwise, just open UVTools, drag the .cyber file on to it, and it will Analyse it. You can then look through each layer.

Settings help
I think 2.5s exposure looks about right. You could try printing tests in 2.3-2.7 range to fine tune it, but I think it looks okay. Try printing updated Towns and cones to troubleshoot other settings. I do recommend reading this about raft heights and bottom exposure times. This article is also a good read to find out about wait times and how to use UVTools to adjust some parameters that Chitubox can't.

Saturn 2 Weird Print Errors
I would dial down your lift speed. I personally follow the advice of people like Ameralabs and don’t use TSMC. To me it looks like the model is pulling away from the supports when your fast lift speed kicks in because it’s still attached to the FEP. If your Saturn 2 is anything like my S8K, acceleration is also probably coded high from the factory. I followed this advice https://github.com/sn4k3/UVtools/wiki/Rest-times-and-TSMC I’ve only been running test prints to improve my print quality, and haven’t printed anything as big as you are printing yet, but the reasoning is sound.
- Is this orientation ok? I had a failed print before. The butt split. Orientation was different. Also tried a lift speed of 80.

Old Photon firmware problem
For interest Photonsters have most if not all firmware versions on Github.

Photon Mono Home setting too low/ cant set z=0
I found this code on github from another thread for resetting to factory settings, thats my best guess to be the issue considering I was able to press home and change the z=0 just before printing for the first time, but im also new to printing in general and wasn't sure if this code would work for the Mono.
- On the left are the test files for my photon mono and on the right are some files which were meant to look like the second picture but clearly something has gone catastrophically wrong. It is not a problem with the printer as the test prints all turned out fine so what could be wrong?
-
Calibrating exposure time - Dimensional Accuracy or detail?
There's no post, but its mentioned in the Photonsters Github, specifically this Google Docs spreadsheet which has a youtube video link with a brief explanation. These docs are mostly for the original Photon, but most of it applies to other machines too.

PHOTON-S replacement Z motor's lead screw has different inclination. can i adjust the firmware to compensate?
Problem with these SLA printers is that they're not that well documented, for the original photon it's known that the steps/mm are changed with an M8010 command, but i'm not sure if it's the same for the S. You can take a look at the default config gcode for the OG photon to see how it's configured. The figure of S0.000625 there indicates a leadscrew pitch of 2mm for the OG photon, so i guess they changed it on the S. This would imply that making a gcode file containing:
- Photon prints rubbish after firmware update
- Anycubic eco resin - biodegradable claim
