To be clear I know it's not well lol. I just wanted the community's thoughts on what I'm doing wrong. I'm using Overture Royal Gold on a modified CR-10v2 with a real V6. Model was sliced in cura with default low quality settings.

The filament I bought a few months ago but just broke it open yesterday. It's making some small popping noises every now and again but the seal didn't appear to be broken. It seems all right otherwise, if a little sticky on the roll. I had to move it out of my filament dryer to keep it from opening the lid because it was binding so much. That's what happened to the last tower, that failed mid print. Looks nice at least.

Be sure to apply that script to actually change the temperature. There is not really a change visible. Also the extrusion stops when printing the digits. That's weird.

It did actually change the temp! It's the auto tower addon for cura, all I had to do was select the model and hit print. Plesantly surprised, last time I made one it was a bit of a slog.

Also yes it's very weird, I've no clue why.
