Just wondered if anyone uses/has tried Lychee slicer for resin prints?

No. Not heard of it until now. Looks interesting. I just wonder how many of the features are only available in the paid-for version.

I hadn't heard of it until recently either. A lot of people seem to say it knocks spots off Chitbox and they wouldn't go back, but another set say its rubbish :dontknow: I downloaded it a week or so ago, but the instructional stuff I couldn't get my head around, it isn't simple "do this, then do that, then do something else" probably because its translated from French!! So I took it out, but then today I was looking at cures for elephant foot and one site led me back to Lychee who apparently have a setting for printing the outermost pixels of the bottom layers in grey rather than the proper colour and that effectively alters the exposure time and reduces the bottom layer spread ( or something along those lines!), so I tried again this morning but still can't get on with it. Hence my question.
