ADVi3++ version 4.0.0 is here!

ADVi3++ Boot

After almost one year of work, ADVi3++ version 4.0 is here! Thank you a lot to all supporters of the project. It would not be possible without you.

There are many changes in this release and a complete list is available in the Changelog. Below are some highlights:

  • New automatic bed leveling, more faster, and does not use the Z endstop anymore.
  • Pre-configured bed leveling sensor supports and possibility to enter your own values.
  • S-Curve Acceleration support.
  • Linear Advance support. You can set the K value in Settings / Motors / Linear Adv.
  • Multiple PID values recorded and auto PID tune. When a target temperature is set, choose the closest set of PID values.

Binaries

Pre-build binaries are published on ADVi3++ Community but are only available, for the moment, to sponsors of the ADVi3++ project on Patreon. So if you are not a sponsor, you have to generate the binaries yourself.

If you are a sponsor, login here with your Patreon account and get the binaries from Pre-build binaries.

Support

Since version 4.0 is now published, I will again do support for everybody (supporters or not) but supporters have the priority.

For support requests, please use the new ADVi3++ Community - Get Help web site I put in place recently (based on Discourse). You can also use the search feature in order to look for past similar issues.

The updated User Manual is no more on GitHub but also on ADVi3++ Community.
