    How well do the V4/M4 items in the 80% off sale work with Iray? I'm thinking about grabbing some things just to use for low resource background actors but some of the sci-fi stuff looks really good in the promo shots.

    I've spent money today I wasn't planning on, but I think I now own every 3D Universe toon animal. Even picked up Lady Littlefox's Unicorn while I was shopping. Now how to tell the wife we can't go out for Valentines because of my toon addiction. Hmmm...

    LMAO! This sounds strangely familiar to me...

    Yep. i'm planning my speech now. 

    "But sweety, flash sales don't happen all the time. I had to decide quick. We can go out to eat anytime. And you know my new book is about a zoo. I needed the animals for it. I got them a whole lot cheaper by doing it now!"

    Not sure if it will work.

    Well, if the speech doesn't work, then it's down to one of two things: 

    1. Your skills of cooking OR
    2. Your skills of seduction

    Hopefully one or the other will work! Just make sure whatever you do, lots of chocolate is involved.

    If the speech doesn't work, option 2 may be rather quickly made irrelevant. ;-)

    That's why the chocolate is important! And maybe some shiny objects. If in doubt, distract her!

    I think I'll be okay. Luckily the wife understands and supports my daz problems and I did pretty good at Christmas. I might be able to round up some chocalate and shiny things just in case.

  • Did anyone get the huge Star 2.0 discount around 10am? I'd be $15 poorer on store credit if I had seen that.

    10am where?

  • Arizona. I forget if we're Mountain or Pacific right now.

    Today's offer mentions free poses to go with the new characters:

    Valentine's Day 2017 banner

    I'm not seeing any free poses on the page. (See Attached.) Can anyone else see free poses on this sales page? (Could they be missing because I already have them?)

    Older items tend to work ok with Iray with a little bit of shader tweaking.

    It looks wrong (grammatically and contentwise) on the page too:

    Buy 3 or more* “Valentine's” New Releases and these featured items:


    * Items must be in cart simultaneously for discount to apply.

    and these featured items "are free" would make sense - but there are none ...

  • ChoholeChohole Posts: 33,604

    I see

    Buy “Valentine's” New Releases to get:

    up to 44% OFF* “Valentine's” New Releases

    UP TO 52% OFF*‡ Featured Artist Catalogs

    up to 12 DOLLARS OFF*Δ “DAZ ORIGINALS

     

    Buy 3 or more "Valentine's" new releases to get:

    Aiko 7 80% OFF*
    Star 2.0 for Genesis 3 female 60% OFF*
    genesis 3 female body morphs for FREE*
    genesis 3 female head morphs for FREE*

  • KeryaKerya Posts: 10,943

    Yeah - but the promo on the front page says "& free poses to go with them" ...

  • ChoholeChohole Posts: 33,604

    ah right,   I'm with you.   We will send a query.

  • So, one thing about ATI's plug-in for Chrome... 

    You can tell when a low price was intentional versus an accidental blip depending on how flat and wide the bottom of the valley is on the price history. :D 

     

  • Hmm.  There WERE featured items last night.  Don't remember what they were or what they did, but there wasn't anything from my wishlist among them.

    A Gift Card sale has just begun (see main store page banner)

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    is there a march madness sale coming?

    my tax refund cringing under the sofa

  • MelanieLMelanieL Posts: 7,865

    Oh I really hope March Madness isn't starting this soon - I haven't got over the Holiday Sale yet!

  • DaWaterRatDaWaterRat Posts: 2,887

    Maybe a mid-month character is coming a little early since February is short and March Madness is on the Horizon...

    The sales page has changed, makes more sense now. However, there still are no "free poses"... I suspect, then, that the Genesis 3 Female head and body morphs are the free items. If so, someone should also update the banner to say "free morphs" instead.

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    5 fridays in March.  xtra paycheq smiley

    what do i need, need a gas station, some love for Hitomi, more everyday props, giraffe

    Tip: the 12% off on $101 or more makes no sense if you are a PC member. Just add http://www.daz3d.com/vivid-for-boho into the cart and you're good to go for the 16% off. :)

  • OdaaOdaa Posts: 1,548

    Or put a texture set for one of Elijah's outfit in your cart and use your $6 off DO coupon...

    That has me confused.  How do you get 16% off?

    I think Ati means that if you are buying a GC for $101 or more, it's cheaper to add a PC+ item and get 16% off than just throw in the GC and get only 12% off.

    e.g. $101 GC on its own = $88.88

    $101 GC plus $2.09 PC+ texture set (if you haven't aleady bought them all) = $2.09 + $84.84 = $86.93 saving you $1.95 and getting a "free" texture set.

    This is true. However it's still better to get a reasonably priced new release if there is one you will actually use a lot. Texture sets are certainly the least expensive way to go, but sometimes it sticks you with a texture to a product that you don't have and never end up purchasing. :)

    Yeah, I'm heavily considering buying another gift card today and "allocating" it to next month's budget because of the massive discount...

    Ah, okay, got it.  My brain wasn't working.  :)
