Morphing Python part of a bundle?

It's weird, I do not have the Morphing Python (http://www.daz3d.com/morphing-python) listed in my Smart Content or DIM, but I've had it for years and used it in a number of images. Now that I need to reinstall it, I can't find where to download it. Does anyone know if it was part of a bundle; that could explain why I have it and yet it's not showing that I actually do.

Thanks in advance.

    I thought it was in a bundle that included the Witch Doctor for Darius and the Voodoo Queen for Monique, along with the Swamp Shack and Voodoo Style Props?

    I'm not sure...but I think it's the same as the very old freebie one: ps_fr_269, if I recall.

    No... sorry, but it was not part of the actual bundle. The "Capsces Madame Mojo" poses that are in the bundle require the python, but he's not part of the deal. Thought he was... sorry! I looked in my Product Library as well, but he doesn't show up as being purchased in a bundle.

    Now that I think about it... did you try looking it up in your Purchased Products under "My Account"? If you bought it, it should show up there. Perhaps you downloaded it manually long ago when it was an .exe installer and smart content didn't exist?

    It was one of the really old freebies that was on a separate page with a diect download, and later moved to the Free Archive. That is of course long gone so I'm afraid there's no way to get it back if the installer is lost other than getting it from the store.

    They were supposed to be 'free for a limited time'...and they became sort of permanently free, until the store was redone.  Then some of them came back, at regular prices, most moved on to that great bit bucket in the sky.

    From what I remember the free one was sort of bare bones snake, the one in the store had more in the package.

    Well, they darn well should bring back the old Jester's Hat and update it a little.... and the Flying Carpet. I love those. The Walking Cane collection that was in there is also still a viable product... just needs a bit of updating.

    That seems strange too though, usually if you "buy" a free item, it's registered to your account and you can download it again at a later date. I also had the full version with the additional textures and such, and I also have Cold Blooded, a texture add-on for it (and that is available through DIM and Smart Content).

    Huh, oh well. Guess I'll have to buy it while it's on sale. Thanks for the information.

    It wasn't a weekly freebie... it was in the very old free archive at the OLD store, it not something you could very easilly find unless you knew where to look, and you didn't even have to add them to your cart... I seem to remember that they were downloadable directly from that page only.

  • Richard HaseltineRichard Haseltine Posts: 107,953

    The weekly freebies originally (well, not perhaps originally but at one stage) did not require buying and did not get added to the order history. The Python was from that era.

    Yep...they weren't 'bought', so they never showed up in your product library...which is one reason why there was such an outcry when the were being removed, because there would be no way to get them unless you archived them, yourself.

    I do still have every single one of them.... just in case Daz looses them and want's them back. They know how to contact me. wink

    Actually, you might want to check your invoices for around March 9, 2010, when the Morphing Python was made available as a freebie within the store when PC members got the "cold blooded" expansion pack for $1.39.

    Looks like your right. On March 9, 2010 I bought the Morphing Python, Garden Escape Arbor, and Cold Blooded... for a grand total of $0.97. Nevermind about that refund thingie... blush
