Snapmaker Orca Ultra v2.3.6.1
Snapmaker Orca Ultra v2.3.6.1
Windows portable build. Unzip and run snapmaker-orca.exe.
New in this release
- Outer wall filament — outer walls can print with their own filament, separate from inner walls (Strength > Extruders; "Default" follows the Walls filament). Follows per-object extruder assignments like the other per-feature filaments.
- Spool Manager — connect to a self-hosted Spoolman server: live spool inventory, bind spools to filament slots, and deduct sliced filament weight automatically when a job is sent (or manually per plate). Enable in Preferences > Ultra.
- Offset layers (experimental) — odd inner walls print raised by half a layer height so adjacent wall interfaces interlock vertically, for stronger inter-layer bonding (Strength; not compatible with Inner/Outer/Inner wall order).
- Merge into Single Part — select several parts of one object and merge them into one part, preserving paint/seam/support annotations and part type (port of OrcaSlicer#15413).
- Print unsupported walls last — wall loops floating entirely in mid-air wait for the walls/infill that anchor them (Quality > Overhangs; port of OrcaSlicer#15411).
- Undertop surface pattern — choose the pattern of the solid layer directly under a less-than-100%-density top surface (Strength; port of OrcaSlicer#15389).
- Per-filament Z offset — filament-level Z offset applied on top of the printer's (Filament > Advanced).
- Bottom-referenced Z — Move panel's Z can show the object's bottom height above the bed instead of the center (Preferences > Ultra).
- Drop-to-bed toggle — imported models can keep the Z position stored in the file (Preferences > Ultra).
- Machine prepare time — a printer-level warm-up allowance added to print time estimates.
- Import config from G-code — File > Import reads the settings block out of a sliced G-code file.
orcaslicer://links — "Open in Orca" buttons on Printables and similar sites now open models directly.- Silent exit — closing the app no longer prompts to save or discard modified presets; the project 3mf carries the live settings.
- Part visibility — eye column in the object list cycles Visible > Ghost (X-ray) > Hidden per object or per part, with right-click Visibility on any selection including multi-select.
Carried forward from v2.3.6-ultra
- Stream tab — multi-camera wall (up to 4x4) with aliases: Snapmaker U1 (incl. HD LAN), Moonraker, Bambu P1 (built-in relay), X1/H2 (via go2rtc).
- Ultra Preferences tab — Auto-Save every N seconds, Keep My Printer on project open, Skip Settings Mapping Warnings, Prefer Last Used Print Profile (remembers per layer height), Seamless System Filament Edits.
- Modeling tools — Manifold-based mesh booleans and OpenVDB Repair/Remesh (with automatic fallbacks), mesh-boolean part picker, Assemble Separately and Separate, plate/object align helpers in the Move panel, double-click part selection.
- Filament tools — Apply All for filament dropdowns, per-feature filament selection (walls / sparse / solid infill).
- Z overrides X/Y support option.
Fixes to upstream Snapmaker Orca / OrcaSlicer issues
- Crash when deleting a plate while a slice was in progress.
- Fuzzy skin no longer leaves random dots on outer walls in extrusion/combined mode (width floor used wrong units) or blobs near seams (missing point spacing across the loop closure).
- JSON config files with unquoted numbers or booleans no longer silently lose those settings — including inside per-filament lists (port of OrcaSlicer#15370, extended to arrays).
