This is my slightly customized version of the [Marlin Firmware](https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin), gratefully based on [derhopp's repo](https://github.com/derhopp/Marlin-with-Anycubic-i3-Mega-TFT) with his remarkable efforts to get the Anycubic i3 Mega TFT screen to work.

I am running this version on an i3 Mega Ultrabase V3 (for distinction of the different versions, check [this Thingiverse thread](https://www.thingiverse.com/groups/anycubic-i3-mega/forums/general/topic:27064)). I am running this version on an i3 Mega Ultrabase V3 (for distinction of the different versions, check [this Thingiverse thread](https://www.thingiverse.com/groups/anycubic-i3-mega/forums/general/topic:27064)).
Basically, this should work on every Ultrabase version that has two Z-axis endstops. Basically, this should work on every Ultrabase version that has two Z-axis endstops.
**The new Mega-S is not officially supported. You can try your luck, but I have no means of troubleshooting issues with that machine. E-steps need to be set to 384 (`M92 E384.00` + `M500`), and afterwards calibration is highly recommended as per the instructions on the [Wiki](https://github.com/davidramiro/Marlin-AI3M/wiki/Extruder-Calibration/).** The new Mega-S should work too, but you will need to enter those two commands to make the new extruder work:
```
M92 E384
M500
```
Afterwards, calibration is highly recommended as per the instructions on the [Wiki](https://github.com/davidramiro/Marlin-AI3M/wiki/Extruder-Calibration/).
Note: This is just a firmware, not magic. A big part of print quality still depends on your slicer settings and mechanical condition of your machine. Note: This is just a firmware, not magic. A big part of print quality still depends on your slicer settings and mechanical condition of your machine.
