(or any other compatible 3D Printer)
Don't forget to checkout the thingiverse models I've designed:
Minimalist Dual Cooling Fan Shroud for Aquila / Ender 3 V2
Tool Box for Middle Extrusion "VOXELAB" engraved
Fantastic Filament Guide for Aquila
Raspberry Pi Zero Case Mount 30mm case width for Aquila
(Also available for BTT SKR Mini E3 and others)
Note
Many Updates have been included in the most recent MRiscoCProUI for the 2024-November release. This release has many changes to the UI. New ICON's have been added, and old ones enhanced. Whoever edited them before saved directly as .JPG which in many editors lowers the quality of the image. I painstakingly remastered almost every single one; preserving the original quality.
You must REFLASH the LCD Display with the new DWIN_SET; which is located in the
display assetsfolder.
If you encounter any issues, suggestions, or feature requests please feel free to post it on the Issues tab, otherwise if everything is going well please leave a comment.
I will be working on more upgrades and features and tweaks along the way. Enjoy using this fork of Marlin as I intend it to be the best; easy to use and convenient. So far I really enjoy the new settings and toolbar for the main menu. There is a variety of parameters and options that can be changed without having to reflash the firmware - like with other versions.
If you start printing and it says Advance Pause while Runout is enabled, you may have to change state it triggers no filament to HIGH, or LOW (depending on what is already selected). This is found in the Prepare menu/ Filament Management/ Filament Settings -> Runout Active.
Warning
FOREWARNING: So far everything has been working great - as normal - except there is an issue with the initialization of the SD card media. If you get a message saying this has failed, just reinsert the card or reboot. Keep trying if this doesn't work the first time. Also using Gcode Thumbnail Preview is giving issues with freezing so this has been disabled for now.
Caution
The screen may freeze and restart when the SD card is inserted. This means that everything so far seems to work correctly as it should, except for when an SD card is inserted, so printing may not be possible unless you use USB serial interface to upload the file (through a slicer or something like Pronterface).
Tip
H32->HC32 support is currently only in the branch HC32-<Month>. You can find the original repo here @shadow578/Marlin-H32
HC32 support has recently been added to the Marlin Firmware repository. Please post any Issues there first, otherwise if there are any ProUI specific issues or anything else to report please do so under Issues tab here.
General information about the firmware and updates is located in the Wiki page What's New In This Release.
Other changes and updates are addressed here.
There is a MarlinSimulator.exe file provided to test out for yourself. It simulates a pre-built configuration of this firmware.
To create your own MarlinSimulator with your own build, start by changing in Configuration.h MOTHERBOARD to BOARD_SIMULATED, also disable ENDSTOP_INTERRUPTS_FEATURE and PROUI_EX, and then in platformio.ini default_envs = change to simulator_windows. The MarlinSimulator can only compile for Manual Mesh Bed Leveling for now, so make sure your configuration is set for MESH_BED_LEVELING.
Then you have to extract SDL2-devel-2.30.5-mingw.zip from /docs. You can either copy/paste the files directly, or install them.
32-bit files are in \i686-w64-mingw32 64-bit files are in \x86_64-w64-mingw32 Navigate to the SDL2 directory in an MSYS2 MINGW64 terminal (Run as Administrator):
To install SDL for native (32-bit) development:
make native
To install SDL for cross-compiling development:
make cross
Recommended for 64-bit - If you receive an error, then try the following:
make install-package arch=x86_64-w64-mingw32 prefix=/usr
You may have to first Build so the directory can be created, but you can: Copy the contents of ~\SDL2-2.30.5\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\SDL2\* into the directory ~.pio\libdeps\simulator_windows\imgui -OR- Copy the just folder ~\SDL2-2.30.5\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\SDL2 into the directory ~.pio\libdeps\simulator_windows
Once all that is done, just Build like you would normally and MarlinSimulator.exe will be created.
For MacOS or Linux, you're on your own...sorry.
The Precompiled binary files of this firmware can work with STM32 (STM32F103RET6/RCT6 - STMicroelectronics) and it's clones: G32 (GD32F103Rx - GigaDevice), N32 (N32F103Rx / N32G455x - Nation), and H32 (HC32F460x - Huada Semiconductor/HDSC). They can be downloaded from: Latest Release

This work would not be possible without me spending time working on it for free.
I would greatly appreciate supporters, helpers, and betatesters whenever possible.

It wasn't easy getting it to this point. I am just a basic programmer and the work is mostly trial and error. Thank goodness for VS Code's compiler and also AI like ChatGPT which shows me what changes need to be made as I make them.
