Yeah, I tweak the slicer a lot. I have also been bouncing between Cura and S3D.
No, stock firmware right now. Thinking about doing the CR-10S upgrade by buying the control board, filament sensor, and everything but the second z motor/lead screw.

What parameters more specifically ?
What do you like and what annoys you in Cura/S3D ?
Ah yes, the second z motor and lead screw are needed, otherwise you have small layer shifts even if you have a good quality lead screw. I have the problem on the Velleman K8200. May be take a few spare couplers in case of mistake.
I like Cura a lot, but it doesn't have custom supports and I was looking for better supports that come off easier and with less damage.
S3D, I don't like the fact it is the only paid slicer and is $150 and they went forever without updates. That right there is a turn-off. But after using it, my problems are it doesn't seem to do much different than any other slicer except custom supports, it UI is awful, doesn't support printing directly to octoprint, I like that it has repair functionality but so does Slic3r. I'll probably end up switching back to Cura or using Slic3r.
Ah ok, it is very similar to my PETG parameters for my CTC:
The repair feature works well in Netfabb (bought by Autodesk).
I will poke you when my slicer will be ready for Beta test.
By the way which platform are you running ?
Windows
