  • And, again(!) DAZ released a product with no option to download. https://www.daz3d.com/md-hierarchical-material-suite-pro

    Honestly, I am quite fed up. If such a thing happens every once in a while - okay, not good, but acceptable. But almost EVERY SINGLE DAY? This is not funny anymore. I know, this is not a store issue. More likely a messed up QC and a management that is not really taking their customers seriously. Where other companies try to make (online) shopping more fun, DAZ is trying to make it a nightmare.

    I've reported.. it will be updated ASAP.

    Thanks a lot, Jack. It is available now.

    No clue if anyone else has reported this, but every once in a while when I wishlist an item it gives me the "You must login to add items to your wishlist" message. Every other account requiring feature works fine, wishlisting other prodcuts worksw fine, and after a while the error magically goes away.

    Anyone else had this?

    On and off; if you don't want to wait until it magically resolves itself, putting the item in your cart and moving it to the wishlist from there is a workaround.

    I entered search terms "european apartment".  The Daz store search engine whisked me off to https://www.daz3d.com/giselle-6-pro-bundle

    Unfortunately I don't own the Giselle 6 pro bundle, so I can't test what searching for that gets you...

    Finally downloaded everything that's been sitting in DIM by downloading them one at a time, but I've just purchased four items and nothing is showing up in DIM.
    The log shows JSON errors.

    Network Error during authentication.
    Json Parser (1,1): Syntax error - expected '{' or '['
    Unable to parse purchased products
    Invalid JSON formatting while processing purchased items.

    It has been like that for me all day today ( post above )

    Anybody else having this problem?

    I found out from other places on this forum that a manual install actually isn't too hard. I downloaded the zips to my DIM install folder and then ran DIM offline. It's a working option at least.

    True when there are only a few products; BUT I deleted all my products and am in the process of reinstalling them with DIM. I still have over 12,000 items to download and manual downloads for that many items is fairly prohibitive.

    BTW:  DIM STILL isn't able to detect my downloads. no I filed a ticket but so far no response and accordingly no more purchases from me.

    Today I bought some Interactive Licenses for some bundles I own and for those all items in the bundles have the Interactive License status BUT for bundles for which I bought the Interactive License in the past couple of months it still shows Standard Licences for the items they contain and when opening the product page it would still allow me to buy an Interactive License although for the bundle license itself it shows Interactive License correctly.

    Also even today still all receipts just show Interactive Licenze DAZINT and that's it. Before the online shop servers/website upgrade it was correctly showing "Interactive License for xxxxxx" with the x being the product name.

    I also see this issue with Reciept discriptions for all interactive license's since the start of Nov, it used to tell you exactly what the item was when you bought a license now it doesn't list it which makes things hard to follow and keep records, please fix this ASAP. I also note the bundles used to state interactive for all items within the bundle now everything under these bundles shows up as standard license if we could get these fixed as a priority that would be great because thats the only issue i have with the store right now other then the poor search outcomes to which i liked the old store front better.

    Are you serious??? You've gone all this time with the DIM Ready To Download still a blank column?  I thought that got solved for everyone.

    There's definitely a problem with the path to Daz's servers then.  All this time I've encountered missing downloads, but not once have I been unable to see what I did have available for download.

  • Facegen Artist Pro has no download options, neither DIM nor Manual.

    It shows up in the Product Library, but no downloads. Also, no serial # listed in my serial # list.

    Still waiting for some action on this. No download available for purchased product, no serial # listed. Shows up in product library, but no options.

    I've just been hit with the "no email after a purchase" tonight - included a gift card. No email for the order, and no "congratulations, you've been sent a gift from" email. Luckily the order history now has the gift card code and it redeemed properly.

    I had the same issue a couple days ago; bought a gift card, waited several hours to receive an email with the code, still haven't gotten an email. Thankfully, I figured out where to find the code in my purchase history so I was able to redeem the card and use it to pick up a cartful of items. Never received an email acknowledging that purchase either, though I was finally able to download all of the items through DIM. Took several hours to download the 10 Food shader files, in some cases a dozen or more tries. The files would get as far as 60% or so and quit. Seems like some serious hosting issues have been plaguing Daz lately. :-(

    The issue has been reported, I don't know what it's current status is - but Im would point out that ti may well require coordination with the publisher of the application, which would not have been possible over the holiday weekend

  • Thanks for the info, Richard.

    I'm also still waiting for this product. Three days now.

    Might I suggest that this be added to the normal testing of each product before it goes live?  Put it in cart and complete "purchase", open DIM and download it, do manual download, do Connect download.  Confirm that all works...then put it into the live store!

    Same problem for me. And the products don't show up for Connect either.

    Keep in mind Daz Central is the official download manager, DIM is almost "outdated"

    I still cannot manually download Cyberpunk Futuristic Styles for Everyday 2 that was purchased three days ago. Im going to return it.

    Returned, and not for store credit.

    Sorry Aeon Soul. I love your work but this store is trying my patience too much these days.

    Huh? Who said it was outdated?   IIRC Daz Central was riddled with so many problems it screwed up many people's studios.  The forums have  people who won't touch it now because they tried it. I'll take outdated over flaky anyday.

    Plus I seem to remember looking at the requirements and my computer didn't qualify.  I'm sure I'm not alone in that.

    Nothing outdated about DIM. Remember that Central was originally designed and promoted as a "training wheels" front-end for the core DIM code, deliberately simplified so it would be easier for beginners to use. Central is also IMHO not really suitable for anyone already using DIM and happy with it, especially if they use a non-default content setup — that's been the source of many of the "DAZ deleted my content!" (it didn't) complaints that have cropped up far too often in recent months.

    Not true.  Daz Central is a simplified version for beginners.  For more advanced features you need DIM.  And DIM is the engine behind Daz Central.

    Then they would have to make DC more stable. Yes, it is realiable. I can rely on DC to mess up my installation (MacOS "Catalina") each and every time I try. It installs items all over the place and does not always respect path settings. Quite some products do not work at all when installed via DAZ Connect, and some PA's require (!) that their product is installed via DIM.

  • Even that Microsoft fiasco Millenium worked better than DC

    I managed to purchased something through Paypal!... It was under $3 *is too scared to try something expensive*

     

    DIM, outdated to some. But it totally rocks on my computer *puts on sunglasses*

    It was working, although it had a previous glotchy spell about a year ago. This is not a new product.
