Comment on Upgrading from Cura 4.12 to 5.6 no longer heats extruders or bed

I think x3g is the required format for all printers running Sailfish firmware, such as my FlashForge printer. I’d be hesitant to change the firmware, as I don’t want to risk bricking my printer if I do the wrong thing.
Cura writes the files using the X3GWriter plugin by Ghostkeeper. Perhaps there is a way to turn off this plugin and compare the gcode?
