What happens to the original UH60 Blackhawk Helicopter wich is stated in the Supersuit Super Hero Content Bundle http://www.daz3d.com/super-suit-super-hero-content-bundle but the Link http://www.daz3d.com/uh60-blackhawk-helicopter  leeds to a 404 Error Page not Foud. Is it no longer inside the Bundle and is not longer available as a stand alone Product?

    The UH-60 Blackhawk in my library no longer has a link to the store page so I wonder if it is archived and not for sale anymore? It only indicates that it is part of the bundle you mention. But if you notice the picture of the Package is not displayed just the link.

    Yes; I noticed that.

    It only is pictured in the main picture and in the promo pictures and has a Link in the What`s included and Feature area (wich is a dead link) but is not listed with a picture in the  This product includes the following products area. It also dosn`t show up in the store search.

    the http://www.daz3d.com/uh60-blackhawk- that once was sold here had some bugs with the doors and side guns etc. . I reported a year or so ago/ and instead of fixing the bugs Daz gave me a refund or store credit. so I am guessing there must have been enough poeople puting in bug reports to get the model pullsfrom the store.

    But thats just my guess I really do not know if that was th reason it was pulled.

    The problem was with DAZ Studio 4 and not specifically with the BlackHawk which still works fine in DS3. Like some other older models the BlackHawk had welded meshes. DS3 and earlier used the CR2 to break the meshes apart but this feature was lost in DS4; so when you tried to open the doors shearing occurred. Since this problem affected a lot of earlier models it would be nice if DAZ would fix DS 4 to accommodate them.

    Edited to add: Another example with this problem was 'Hatching Egg"  ( http://www.daz3d.com/hatching-egg ) and it is still available in the store.

    That is true its does still work in Poser and daz 3a, it was developed for those older software.  But Daz3d.com sells and supports products for 4.9 Now  so my belief is rather than fix the model for daz3 to work in daz 4.9  it would make sense to moth ball it instead of having to keep issuing store credit for a product that does not work in their current4.9 software.  I bought this helicopter for a animated project last year and turned out i could not use it in Daz4.8 because of the welded door issues. so they refunded my money back. I am sure I was not the only one they did this for.

    So it does not matter to daz3d.com  if it works in another older software, because it does not work in the current one that they sel.  and I a willl repeat my statement again. I am not sure if that is the real reason for it being dropped . But after getting a refund and hearing other complain about the same issue.  That would be my hunch why it would be dropped from the store.
