Unknown g-code generator

Hello I just updated to ratod 2.1 and when i slice my files in Cura with settings I've always used i get this error. Warning: Unknown g-code generator The file was not produced by a recognised G-Code generator, therefore it cannot be post-processed or analysed, and its suitability for printing cannot be determined.

ratos doesnt support cura in this case you need to completely disaple the post processor
enable_post_processing: False
enable_post_processing: False
but i cant recommend it at all use one of the major slicers like Prusa Slicer, Super Slicer or Orca Slicer

I have the same problem. I would like to continue using Cura because only Cura supports alternating wall directions. Indispensable for me with ABS and ASA. @Helge Keck what does the post processor do? what changes when it is switched off? in printer.cfg?

Why is this not recommended?

to use cura or to disable the feature?
Dom Dell Computer
Both. Cura has gradual infill which I cannot replicate in orca or prusa

on IDEX curea wont work at all, for single toolhead you can use it if you want
Dom Dell Computer
I see. If this for a vcore 3 or 4 not idexed, cura will be ok

it's called "adaptive [infill type]" in prusa slicer, orca slicer and super slicer. Ie, "Adaptive Cubic".

Similar but not the same behavior unf

Does it matter? The only reason to use adaptive infill is to reduce material and print time on cosmetic models. It does that.
