Problem printing Dart Vader with supports

Hi,

I am trying to print this model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2701094

But the start of the helmet has failed 3 times. Using supports everywhere. I have tried 45, 55 and 0 (automatic) degrees hangover threshold, and 0.15 layer height. I'm using Slicer PE.

What is the trick to print this?

Re: Problem printing Dart Vader with supports

if it helps, ive had a hell of a time using supports. I just had more luck going slower and abit cooler. the last time I tried.

I have a Prusa,therefore I research.

Good to hear I'm not alone 😉
Are you going slower for the entre print, or did you tweak anything special? I have mostly printe with standard settings so far.

Re: Problem printing Dart Vader with supports

sorry it took so long to get back to you. I seem to be having luck with this. I do go 50% for the first few layers. but there is hope. im sure I will have to all dialed in about the time my MMU shows up with the water soluble filament.....
