Congratz!! : D my two fav companys plus renderocity ^^ this is happy news! ^^
As I understand it they've been 'working on it'. The problem was the texturing and finding a way of doing altitude and slope in Studio.
Kind of interested in knowing the timeline for the things pre-purchased at RDNA to appear in the accounts here.
Much of this is exaggeration. On serious matters DAZ does listen and engage. I don't know where you got the idea they don't. In the end they do what's best for the company and compromise is often part of that. This is why they're so successful and growing.
"It was the best of times"... Is it now the worst of times? ... The GreatDAZWale swallows up a scool of contented fish.
That's good to hear. If they move it all here then they will have a plethora of help getting all that figured out!
Traveler mentioned in their FAQ that no RDNA content would be encrypted (I assume he was talking about existing stuff).
Q: Will Old Content from RDNA be Encrypted via Connect?
A: None of the migrated products will be encrypted.
Maybe people ought to read what Lady Littlefox had to say. Maybe it will shed some light on this "Big Bad Wolf DAZ swallowing up sites" business.

Mods: If I shouldn't have linked to this I'm sorry and just delete it. :)
No, you are not alone.
I like going over to RDNA and seeing a different set of items, many of which are Poser compatible (I run Carrara and C8Pro and earlier don't take DUF or Genesis files).
Hell, even here at Daz our freebies have been DUF only for a little while.
Even reliable vendors like ARTCollab and Stonemason have turned away from making items Poser compatible.
I also love the Deep Freeze at RDNA.
+1
That does change my perspective quite a bit. Having co-run a commercial 3d site for a specific games addons, I can relate to the frustration of trying to balance creativity vs admin work. I still would prefer that RDNA was a seperate entity and not part of DAZ, but I can see this as a good move for the people at RDNA and look forward to seeing what new ideas they come up with.
Was wondering when somebody would get "smacked" :)
.Irrelevant. I was so far behind in pages by the time I posted. Nevermind.
Login at Runtime DNA and change your email to match what have here.DAZ_Steve as well as Runtime DNA has stated to do so. I don't believe the "name and address" will play a factor on this but I would make it match also... just to be safe.
To be extra safe I also copied all my ordering info for products purchased there as well as dowoloading all products... nothing like "peace of mind"
Poser Users need to be Poser Content Buyers so Vendors will create Poser Content... it is NOT quite the chicken and the egg issue. Mostly it is economic based and that is driven by BUYERS of any Content and then it propogates to Vendors producing more content that sells.
I am excited that some of the toon stuff may be getting written for DAZ. I am a newer user of Daz, so I don't care much about Poser, but as a Content Creator in another space, it is sales that drives MOST of my work. I still do what pleases me, but when there is a toss-up of what work to do... well the bill paying one wins.
Honestly, I think the merger will allow the 2 smaller Poser user bases to get re-united and use their clout to have MORE content created since it will have a wider audience making purchases. Money talks and there is nothing wrong with that. Whiners and naysayers will fall to the wayside soon enough... as a majority, often silent and not on the forum users and buyers will enjoy new content, even if its old content! And of course the larger BUYER base should help push development of more content for both platforms.
So welcome to DAZ. May you all find something new and better over the coming days so we can all do great art whether as a hobby or for commercial endeavors!
It's a wonderful and positive read. For those that have a Fb account take the time to read it. Lady Littlefox explained this merger with honor and positivity. :-)
There is a good perspective from LLFx, thanks for share!
You don't need a FB account to be able to read it!
Interesting read. I'm excited for more toon figures!
I'm glad it helped put the truth out to some :) I just imagine if I were Syyd, Colm and Eric and even Daz reading some of the posts here and elsewhere. And not being able to or willing to or comfortable with putting the story out there. It has to be hurtful.
Lady Littlefox did an awesome thing posting it. :)
As you're all aware, there has been a lot announced here in the forums over the last two weeks. We are aware that there are still outstanding questions. Many of these answers are still in the process of being determined. As such, I am goign to "un-sticky" this thread. You will see other threads posted with additional information and announcement in the coming days and weeks.
We hear your questions. We are aware of them. We will answer them.
Onward and upward :)
.
There's another important thing to remember. PoserPros was a nice little store, RDNA is a force of art and creativity with, dare I say, its own brand. Along with RDNA we get some terrific PAs and we get Syyd, Colm, and Traveler.
Which makes me very very happy.
I agree; it made interesting and enlightening reading.
Nice to have a different perspective on what is, and will, happen.
I'm curious... by Merged does that mean DAZ bought RuntimeDNA or that they are now in a partnership?
Either way I'm happy for RunDNA that they now have a new home. DAZ I hope this works out as well as you estimated it would and even better since there are many Poser users here already. As far as new customers... DAZ will gain some occasional shoppers or like myself I've always had Poser as well as Studio so shop both sides of the pond... more so here especially since I need to upgrade Poser and have always wanted to take the time to learn Studio. I am a bit sad that the store down the street will soon be closing.
New PAs... Welcome to those that come and stay. I'll find those that go elsewhere.
Current members and PC+ members... time will tell what all this means to us... it's too soon to wonder... even to say for sure... it's too soon for even DAZ to know. I'm hopeing to gain more freebies and a larger PC+ discount... yes I'm wishing for too much but wishing is fee. Picture me with half a sad face... the other side is happy.
PoserPros was 'annexed' but RDNA content is being merged. DIM, the DAZ installer, lets you install wherever you want. I have several runtimes filled with Poser content installed with DIM.
And the unicorn too!
Ooooooo, I can't wait for the toon Unicorn to this store. Had my eye on that for a while but then got busy and it's just sitting my cart at RDNA but at this point, money is an issue but that's OK. Hopefully it lands here and will be on sale and I can finally get a copy!
Because I don't think people understand this word completely:
noun, plural monopolies.
1. exclusive control of a commodity or service in a particular market, or a control that makes possible the manipulation of prices.
Compare duopoly, oligopoly.
2. an exclusive privilege to carry on a business, traffic, or service, granted by a government.
3. the exclusive possession or control of something.
Daz is in no way, shape, or form a Monoply yet I keep seeing that term slung around. Go search "3d content for poser & daz studio" on google and, not including the free sites, there are FIFTEEN sites that sell content just in the first 5 page alone.
I get people are prone to knee jerk reactions but exageration isn't really fair to anyone invlolved.
It was a wonderful read. Thanks for the link.
btw Lady Littlefox IS an awesome thing :)
