Today I found only the Bast textures; I missed the bundles yesterday.
Now I hope for a catchup... Just bought the Angeloi (V4+M4), another phantastic looking set by Arki and Spiritfoxy. I just need to find a way to use the dynamic overskirts and sleeves in DS. Any hint will be appreciated! 
OMG, I need to get a job just to afford my DAZ addiction! I justify it all by saying, "It's for a book cover, promo, website, etc." Some of it is, a lot of it isn't. All of it's fun though!
So I am loading up my various bundles via DIM and am getting a install failed message for Lilithai Strigola Vol 1, characters Chapter 1, the Malaik Characters and the Qabbalah Mega Bundle. Just curious if its because the items are also listed separately or do I just need to manually download them.
I didn't have any trouble with the Ishtar and Bast bundles through DIM last night. I'll try when I get home and let you know if I have the same issue. Maybe something glitchy in the package formatting.
It looks like all the bits and pieces of the bundle are in my content library as far as I can tell, so it may just be that its doubles. I didin't have any issues with Ishtar and Bast light night either which is why I was a bit surprised that the bundles didn't go through today.
The Lilithai bundles and Malaik characters are failing to install for me too.
That description is straight from the Megawings bundle, which is not getting transfered from RDNA. Don't know how it wound up on an item here.
There may be some missing files. In the Quabbalah Outfit I bought with the Quabbalah Megabundle, the Read Me files says there are supposed to be some obj files in the Geometries folder, like AK_QBsuit.obj but they are not. I even did a manual download, but I can't find them. And of course, when I try to load the suit from the Librairies file, it asks for the obj file. Can anyone confirm? Thanx.
That Megawings bundle sounds great!
Note: I was able to download and installed the Malaik wings, characters and the bundle without any problem, but did them one at a time, because my connection is slow out here. I didn't do the clothing, because of the size. I'll try the Lilithai next.
The Malaik wings are missing a lot of files, have you tried them Llynara? did you get error messages too? I have seached but I can't find the files that's missing, I downloaded it manually and the files are not there when I look in the textures folder. I hope that this can be fixed beacause I really need thoose wings
Update: I submitted a help ticket about it.
All my Lilithai Strigoia Bundles are failing to load too!
(I got Bundles V1 & 2 and the Characters Chapter 1)
Edited to add: sorry I don't know how to make the attachement view fully (but if you clieck it is shows all of it)
I only bought Volume 1 But both the bundle and the character sub-product fail to install with DIM. The other sub-products (accessories and outfit) do install
There are two problems with Characters Chapter 1: first the Manifest file inside the .zip has invalid references to some of the folder and file names (they contain the ampersand symbol, which is a special character which the DIM fails to recognise correctly as part of a filename), second there are about 28 missing texture files.
I have submitted a ticket with details of what is wrong - this has happened to me before for four or five other ex-RuntimeDNA products which haven't been packaged correctly here. The last couple of tickets were fixed within a few days, so I'm hopeful this will be too.
Thanks for submitting the detailed ticket I submitted a ticket that it wouldn't install but didn't have any details about what caused the problems
If anyone has a solution, please share. I'm having this issue, too. I hate to submit another ticket if it's just something that needs to be fixed with the store/files and they already know about it.
RDNA is a great assets builder too, I also got some free stuff that are marvelous from their website in past time !
It does not especially surprise me that their bundle are low-priced here, since they want do some know-know with the communauty :)
Great work RuntimeDNA.
You really still haven't learnt the lesson. ;)
So why the heck is it only for PC+? I too have enough of the qualifying assets but are not allowed for BYOB, although I receive these nasty advertisements.
I was able to install the Malaik wings but haven't tried them yet. Will do that today (I have a day off and can play in Daz! YAY!!!) The Lilithai Bundle failed to install for me too. I wonder if doing the old fashioned manual install (just copying into the right folders) would get it working. I'll try that too.
Literally minutes ago I got a reply - QA are working on the fix and hope to have it ready to download in "a few hours", so look out for a DIM update by the end of the day.
The update is in DIM now. And I was looking when those bundles failed to download, the stuff IN the bundles were listed separately in DIM in addtion to the bundle. I have everything in the bundle in my runtime and never downloaded the bundle, just hid those and let DIM install them individually.
It's still not working for me.
I do not believe the problem has been corrected yet, Charlie. I had sent in a ticket a couple of days ago about the missing LS files. I download all my content manually and have been watching for changes to the character files. As Melanie said, about half the texture maps are missing, so the size of the manual download is going to roughly double once the missing files are added. So far, that file size has not changed from what was originally available. So we wait.
There are definitely textures missing for the Malaik Wings- on every kind! This really annoys me. Where the heck is quality control? If DAZ is going to sell something, could they at least CHECK to make sure it's actually FUNCTIONAL? It's just as annoying that none of the old stuff in the store shows up in the Smart Content window and we have to go looking for everything. If you are going to sell stuff, make sure it works and your users can actually find it. I don't want a refund. I want the stuff to actually work as advertised. I don't think that's too much to ask.
This is one of the errors:
Here's a quick render, stopped at 70%. Not sure how to texture the feathers to make them look better in Iray yet. Not even sure there are Iray shaders for feathers. Have never tried it. Thought I'd look for something to retexture to get around this issue, but all I've got are scales, hair, metals and fabrics.
Please submit a help ticket. If you do, hopefully it will be fixed in a few days
In the meantime, a couple of musings on the migrated RDNA content. First of all, its not really a quality control issue perse, but a conversion issue I believe. The products themselves were probably complete and functional before being migrated (I would almost guarantee that). I am just guessing here, but the difficulty is really threefold, as I see it:
1. A ton of content was migrated from RDNA over a relatively short time period. I don't know whether the process was automated or done manually, but it is easy to imagine the margin for errors either way.
2. The packaging of content at RDNA was different over there in a very fundamental way. At the other site it was very common for products to be packaged in "bite-sized chunks" for easier downloads for those who may have lacked high speed connections. So, a product consisting of 110 MB of files may have been broken up into three zips, one 40 MB and two more of 35 MB each, as an example. Since all the parts were intended to be downloaded and extracted to the same place, they would then become combined. It didn't really matter what each one contained. Over here at DAZ, content often consists of either a single large download, or is broken up rather unevenly according to purpose - i.e a small Poser CF zip and big general download zip, etc. Point is that some repackaging is required from one site to the other. I suspect, in the case of the Lilithai Strigoia Character, that the missing textures were probably originally packaged in a separate zip and simply fell through the cracks during the migration/repackaging process.
3. Lastly, since all the original products were available strictly as manual download/manual install packages, it presumably would also require some work in terms of configuring them to work with DIM, not to mention smart content if that is desired, as they certainly never would have had that.
In short, it is not the quality of the products themselves that is the issue, it is merely the delivery that has gone a little off the rails. Speaking strictly for myself, I'm not overly upset. DAZ will sort it all out eventually and I'll get my missing files and its all good. Its not like it is a conspiracy or anything.
I don't think it's a conspiracy, but I do think you should check to make things actually work before offering them for sale.
I submitted a ticket, hopefully they'll get it fixed soon.
Now, on to some of the other ones, to see if they work. Anyone else having trouble with Qaabalah? I can't install the megabundle, I let them know that on the ticket too. Guess I'll try Angeloi and see if that works.
Here's Bast for G3F and the Bast textures for V4, which work just fine on G3F and come in Iray and 3Delight. There are 4 different textures in the set. Let me know if you would like to see one of the others, and I'll be happy to post a render. I had to play around a bit with the skirt because there was some pokethrough on this pose. I ended up hiding the thighs and bending the skirt a bit. There are morphs to adjust the outfit, but not many to adjust for poses. However, there are plenty of joints where you can bend, twist and scale things as you need.
The model is Akasha for G3F, and I used Anagenesis Revolution shaders on her skin (before loading the outfit with the Iray materials that came with it.) Was going to throw a background behind it, but I don't have a lot of desert ones for Iray yet.
I submitted a ticket about the Qaabalah bundle
Catchup sale - Bast bundle, among others, is back on sale :)
Yes! Time to grab all the goodies we missed the first time around. OMG, my pocketbook is going to hurt!
Looks like the cart is working now. It was wonky earlier.
