Lots if people have mentioned that S3D has poor infill. What exactly is wrong with it?

yeah basically versions up to 2 - only put infill down on alternate layers. So you never got a solid internal matrix.
Version 3 fixed this so you can have infill every layer and added several different patterns.
This means that you can use less infill but have stronger, lighter parts.
So if you're using the pirated version that's doing the rounds - you're stuck with version 2 and really weak parts :-)
Where can I 'pirate' the latest and greatest version ??? ;)
I'm Not Really Bad, I just Act that Way ! LOL ;)
Hi Guys,
so I am now using S3d and wow this is brilliant!! the finish is amazing
the only problem I am having is that the support is dislodging and going haywire, using ABS any tips?
use pla ;-)
You can adjust the support. Never used support - but I have seen the 'adjust support' section.
forgive me, I have not used PLA much as of yet, so how do you get away without supports on overhands greater than 45 degrees?
the reason i am using ABS in particular, is that the parts need to be able to withstand a very hot environment in this particular test I am conducting :)
Ok I will try that tonight!
So are you saying that I should create my own supports in CAD for each project,
do you have any examples of some good support designs I could see?
I wonder if filament quality is an issue? I am using the 2 month old ABS that came with the printer,
