Snapmaker Orca V1.0.0 Beta Release

Snapmaker Orca V1.0.0 Beta is based on OrcaSlicer V2.2.0 Beta and and is designed to enhance the Snapmaker user experience.

We recommend this version for Snapmaker users.

What's Changed

Enabling Orca to transfer G-code via Wi-Fi
Luban is the transfer station enabling Orca to communicate with your machine through the OctoPrint protocol (protocol: Octo/Kilpper; port: 5000). When you have connected your machine to Luban via a Wi-Fi network, you can transfer the G-code generated by Orca via Wi-Fi and start printing.
Users can register and log in to the Snapmaker User Center, which currently offers limited features but will expand next year.
