No presets for Slic3r Prusa edition?

So I just downloaded the Prusa edition of Slic3r (1.31.6). On the support page for this version it says "New awesome 0.15 OPTIMAL print setting" so I was assuming when I ran Slic3r it would have all the optimal settings with presets. However, nothing is set. I had to set everything up manually, like bed size, nozzle size, etc. Also there are no presets, just "default" which has all the wrong settings. Is there a settings package I need to import or something?

Any help would be appreciated, I was hoping not to have to go through every slic3r setting and tweak.

Did you load it over an old copy of Slic3r?
I loaded mine onto a fresh PC, and got the new profiles...

Ok, figured it out. I needed to use the Slic3r version that comes with the drivers you install, not the standalone release from Github

You need to load the configuration bundle (or at least, I had to, it may depend on what OS you are on and what package you downloaded etc.).

The individual settings files are here: https://github.com/prusa3d/Slic3r-settings/tree/master/Slic3r%20settings%20MK2

Cool, thanks. I am sure that will be helpful for the next person who does not just install the drivers!
