Come Together
Lychee released version 7.4 last month, adding multi-plate functions to the popular resin slicer's free version.

Users can now split their projects into up to 49 different beds, slice them altogether, then print each for both resin and FDM projects. It's a useful feature for project organization that will be familiar to users of Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, and other slicers. It's also great for making some multi-color prints if you don't have a multi-material system.

To celebrate the release, Lychee is offering 1 month of free Lychee Slicer Plus or Lychee Library with the code "MULTIPLATE-LYCHEE".
