* fix: guard H2C per-filament array reads against short config arrays The H2C tool-ordering, wipe-tower, and g-code export paths index per-filament config arrays by filament/tool id. A config with fewer entries than the filament count (partial or legacy projects, minimal test configs) makes these reads run past the end of the vector: silent under a normal STL, but UB that aborts under the flatpak build's bounds-checked STL (_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS). Route the reads through the existing clamping accessors (get_at, get_filament_category, is_in_same_extruder) and add a small clamp helper for filament_change_length. The guards are no-ops when the arrays are sized to the filament count, so correctly specified configs are unaffected. * fix: size the grouping context's filament_info to the filament count build_filament_group_context built model_info.filament_info by walking filament_type, so a config whose filament_type is shorter than the filament count produced a short vector. FilamentGroup indexes filament_info by filament id, so clamping the individual reads only moved the out-of-bounds access downstream. Loop to filament_nums and read all three fields through get_at, and drop filament_ids entries past the filament count, since the grouping code pairs filament_ids and filament_info by position. Adds a regression test with four filaments and one-entry filament_type / filament_is_support. Without the fix it throws bad_alloc from copying a garbage std::string read past the end. * fix: guard the carousel nozzle-change length reads too The carousel branch added in b90ac13d86/b0dddb4648 reads m_filaments_change_length by tool id without a bounds check, the same pattern this branch already routed through filament_change_length_at a few lines above in both plan_toolchange and plan_tower_new. * fix: guard WipeTower per-filament array reads against short config arrays The BambuStudio WipeTower sync reintroduced raw per-filament array indexing that reads out of bounds when a config leaves an array shorter than the filament count: m_physical_extruder_map in format_line_M104/M109 (indexed even when empty), and m_filament_categories in get_wall_skip_points and get_wall_filament_for_all_layer. Silent on a normal STL, a hard abort under the bounds-checked STL the Flatpak build uses. Bounds-check the physical extruder map before indexing (omitting the T token, as the existing -1 path already does), and route the two raw m_filament_categories reads through the clamping get_filament_category() accessor the surrounding code already uses. No change for correctly-sized configs.

Nightly Builds
🌙 Download the Latest Nightly Build
Explore the latest developments in OrcaSlicer with our nightly builds. Feedback on these versions is highly appreciated.
Belt Printer Builds
The nightly release ships two parallel builds: the standard build and a belt-printer build. Both are attached to the same release — tell them apart by the filename suffix:
- Standard — no suffix (e.g.
OrcaSlicer_Windows_Installer_x64_nightly.exe) - Belt —
_beltsuffix (e.g.OrcaSlicer_Windows_Installer_x64_nightly_belt.exe)
The _belt builds add experimental support for belt / conveyor (infinite-Z) printers, where the model is sliced against a tilted belt surface instead of a flat horizontal bed. They include ready-to-use belt printer profiles, the full belt slicing pipeline (mesh rotation and G-code transforms), belt-aware support generation, and a tilted-bed preview.
⚠️ Belt printer support is under active development and is not yet merged into
main— it currently ships only in these parallel_beltbuilds, produced from thebelt-printerbranch. See tracking PR #14394 and the original documentation in #12998.
How to install
Windows
Download the Windows Installer exe for your preferred version from the releases page. Both x64 and arm64 installers are published — pick the one matching your CPU.
-
For convenience there is also a portable build available.
Troubleshooting
- If you have troubles to run the build, you might need to install following runtimes:
- MicrosoftEdgeWebView2RuntimeInstallerX64
- vcredist2019_x64
- Alternative Download Link Hosted by Microsoft
- This file may already be available on your computer if you've installed visual studio. Check the following location:
%VCINSTALLDIR%Redist\MSVC\v142
Microsoft Store
Install from the Microsoft Store when you prefer a Store-signed package (helps on Windows 11 Smart App Control).
Windows Package Manager
winget install --id=SoftFever.OrcaSlicer -e

Some Background
Open-source slicing has always been built on a tradition of collaboration and attribution. Slic3r, created by Alessandro Ranellucci and the RepRap community, laid the foundation. PrusaSlicer by Prusa Research built on Slic3r and acknowledged that heritage. Bambu Studio in turn forked from PrusaSlicer, and SuperSlicer by @supermerill extended PrusaSlicer with community-driven enhancements. Each project carried the work of its predecessors forward, crediting those who came before.
OrcaSlicer began in that same spirit, drawing from BambuStudio, PrusaSlicer, and ideas inspired by CuraSlicer and SuperSlicer. But it has since grown far beyond its origins. Through relentless innovation — introducing advanced calibration tools, precise wall and seam control, tree supports, adaptive slicing, and hundreds of other features — OrcaSlicer has become the most widely used and actively developed open-source slicer in the 3D printing community. Many of its innovations have been adopted by other slicers, making it a driving force for the entire industry.
The OrcaSlicer logo was designed by community member Justin Levine.
