Why can't any 3D printing/slicer software can generate a good and final auto-supports?
Let me detail it with a long text :
I'm new to 3D printing, so I'm trying to figuring out how to use auto-supports to easier print models.
I'm able to print this D&D Beholder many times without failing since it's already contains supports created by the author:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3139257
I've also printed 5 times this model, using white and transparent green resin, with different exposure times to see the final results and details.
I can print with success using 5s exposure time per layer on white resin and 3s on transparent green (failed with 1s but I will try with 2s someday)
When trying to print a baby yoda model using auto-supports, I can see there's a lot of islands that weren't supported at all. Also, in the end, it's faster and easier to manual support it by checking each layer for islands.
I've also tried a lot of softwares: Chitubox (better for me until now), B9C, Z-Suite, MeshMixer... and none of them are able to grant that the auto-generated-supports will grant a successful print.
Using Photon Validator, I can see some islands that were left behind, but why doesn't these softwares can't see these islands and fix with supports?
Anyway, I know there's a lot to learn with supports and there's a lot of users that got failed prints. A few of them aren't not by bad supports, but in the end, almost all knowledge time and efforts for a good printing is focused on supporting your model and not on the using of the printer by itself.
