    It looks like the biweekly freebies (which have been up for 2 weeks) haven't changed today. I wonder if it is because today is a U.S. Holiday (Columbus Day) and if they will change tomorrow.

    New biweekly freebies are up But they are not showing as free: https://www.daz3d.com/free-3d-models

    Yeah, there are two great looking items that I don't have yet (yay!) in the "Freebie" section and I'd love to get them, but they're showing up as full priced:

    3 1/2 hours and the freebies are still listed at full price. I'm guessing the Daz crew has their hands full with the new beta and dforce! heheh :)

    I'm downloading the beta now, SO EXCITED to try out dforce!

    It's reported

    I finally got FaceGen Pro for under $50 right at the start of the last PA sale. I've been watching and watching. I'd seen it that low once before - but that was a glitch and got fixed before I could pull the trigger. 
     

    I was curious and had to check- I got it for $41.70 on August 30th. There was a qualifying item (or more) to get it at that price, and I can't remember if anything was glitching or not. 

  • Why are the free items not so free

     

  • frank0314frank0314 Posts: 14,707

    It's been reported already

  • so a glitch then

    Cool, thanks Cris and Frank! :)

    I got two characters that I didn't have before, so that's pretty sweet. Thanks, Daz!

    Speaking of which, the ReadMe for FaceGen goes to a bad link on the product page. And I went in via another route (the Help link, Wiki) and there's no ReadMe at all.

    Hi,

    I often hear in this forum that if in 30 days, there is another sale that has better price than when you bought it, you can ask for a store credit for the difference? However I want to ask if this has to be the same content cart?

    For example, I bought a bunch of Tesla3d items on September 21. Right now it's on sales for 75% if I buy a new release. So can I ask them for the difference to be refund with the new release item in the cart? 

    Thanks and sorry for my broken english.

    Wait, what? Nothing wrong with your English!
    I wouldn't have thought anything about it if not for your last sentence.
    Your English is fine.

    I think it's the doohickey that lets you use Genesis (and Genesis 2) stuff in Poser

    Edit: Nope - see Chohole below

    They work in DS as well.

    No that is the DSON importer

    DSON  is a standard file format for DS

    Would that be because you're not interested in Genesis and Genesis 2? Most of the products listed are figure specific, (character, hair, wardrobe, poses, etc.) However, there are also a number of older products that are still quite usable with the current figures, including several DM sets. A quick peek at the category filtered to show only what I already own shows a few products which support G3 as well as G2, Portrait Vignettes from Collective3D, a DSLR camera, Picture Frames, a Backgammon game, a home office, lots of Daz Dragon 3 products, several weapons products, more sets...

    (I filled in my runtime over the years with cheap props and sets by buying older products from sales just like this one.)

    Ah, it's the importer I was thinking of - so Genesis 3+ isn't DSON?  Is that when duf started?  Or am I mixing it up with something else?

    All Genesises are in DSON format, but the newer versions use features that Poser doesn't support so they don't have Poser Companion Files to load through the importer.

    DSON is a format like JSON, basically just files that end in DUF or DSF.

    Therefore Genesis 3 and Genesis 8 use DSON format.

    So why aren't we seeing much Gen 3/8 in the sale? My guess is because DSON was introduced before Genesis 3, therefore in the 'spirit of DSON', the DSON sale has earlier items.

    EDIT - see Richard's post above mine. Basically this DSON sale means 'stuff with poser companion files' rather than 'all stuff using DSON format'. So really we've come full circle, and it is intended as a 'DSON Importer' sale rather than a generic DSON sale which would've included newer items. Semantics. :)

  • Ah, well at least that clears up my confusion - thanks :)

  • Timing did something weird.  It looked like my Plat coupon was being super effective, but now I think I lost some.  When I filled the cart last night, the megafastgrab items were 75% off and I used those Pendi boots as a trigger - at 58% off.  $6.28, so great coupon target.  Then when I applied the coupon, they dropped to free and the rest went to 80% off, sweet!

    But now I try the cart again, and it looks like even without the coupon they've dropped to 80% off, and the boots are going for $5.02 (66% off).  So.... I think there's a glitch somewhere that saved me money, but shorted my coupon by a dollar.
