yep flashprint is pretty good.
You could also use an older version of makerware desktop.
Simplify3d - is excellent and worth buying. But flashprint is pretty good, cura knock off I believe.

Thanks for the replies guys. I will try flashprint. I considered Simplify3D; honestly the $150 is worth it to me as long as it works reliably. MatterControl is definitely nice too, but it has some limitations for us FlashForge users. I have also seen on other forums that SD cards could cause issues. I have been saving my .x3g files to my hard drive, then copying to an SD card and using that to print from. I have a feeling the .x3g files are not simply a binary version of the g-code text file. It sounds like it could be more like an executable code to run the machine. That makes sense since it seems like it would make the controller board cheaper. Don't need an g code interpreter. Maybe poor card reads can cause issues and the 14th layer on this part is the buffer size or something... I don't know.
Please explain to me how to...
