    That item in the store goes to an Ooops page. But the readme page https://docs.daz3d.com/public/read_me/index/113000_113999/113905/start is still there.

    that read.me mentions some Archibald Flint, which is a name used in the Doctor Who franchise, it seems.

    Thanks for pointing it out. It seems the store is still open. Then I don't understand why it was taken down.

    There might be issues with the product. I remember when RawArt had to take down their product and alter it. Not saying this was the case here, just pointing out that there might be many reasons we aren't aware of.

    As a side note, it seems that RajRaja's products are gone from the store (except for 3). I always hesitate to remove such products from my wishlist, in case the product/PA comes back, but at the same time, I don't want them lingering there as "inactive."

    Rhiannon has also removed all her products transfered from Renderosity.

    My heart goes out to my wallet. I bought a lot from both stores, but all my favorite clothes are in the other store.

    And this artist has also left; I'm sorry, I can't remember their name.

    well, that could be DO buyout or iray updates because most 3Delight, Bryce or texture sets

    I take a screen shot and then remove them. Best of both worlds. :)

    Same here I figured at first it was just my internet being naff, but it seems everything works apart from the daz store, just a load of spinning black tiles

    It's fixed now for those who haven't noticed yet.

    I took one spin on the $2.50 sale. It's still unwise with my dog's issue, but at this point, a few dollars more won't make any difference. And I got some lovely treats.

    ...well, another day to rest the bankcard and hang onto my DO coupon as the store today is pretty much dominated by the new character bundle..

    Wondering if there will still be a "Christmas in July" sale this year considering the spring/summer D+ sale didn't happen.

  • Ron KnightsRon Knights Posts: 2,736

    I'm pretty much settled on one sale or special a month.

    I was a bit disappointed to see Build your own bundle had a restriction. I didn't want the offered products.

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 42,368

    ...apparently Daz is taking a holiday..  Mostly reissues of older toon animals for Horse 3, Dog 8, and Daz House Cat in the new releases, and not even a full page for the Featured Artists category.(41 products).

    I didn't see anything apart from the link taking me to the main store front so I passed on that one. 

    I've since banned myself from buying until next month anyway.

  • I have a question about the toon cat released today, since it is for the Daz cat w fur - have anyone tested it w the fur on - does it work or is it buggy w that extreme shape? if it works - any screenshot? Thanks in advance for possible screens of it or info heart- have had it - the original - in my wishlist for long but did not buy due to no fur on it. Even a cartoony animal needs furlaugh.

    The cat in question here: https://www.daz3d.com/toon-cat-for-daz-house-cat heart.

    And I would LOVE a new realistic Daz cat w furheart

    And I am still waiting for a gift card sale, no buy until it comes, have only like 5 dollars left in store credit, and stuff I want to buy. But need a gift card sale.

    I don't know about the fur, but look at the eyes on that cat. They don't seem to fit in the socket and rotate properly, unless it is an optical illusion. I didn't buy it, so I can't test it.

    I agree about those eyes, did not notice, that's a bit of a red flag. Looks like normal eyes in a toony head. I will keep an eye out, fun intendedlaugh, incase a fix comes, or if someone can use it properly and makes art of, the shopping helper will tell me if they listed the cat. And for a possible working fur.

    The eyes might be the proper size, but not rigged to rotate in the socket properly. I'm just judging from the one promo where the cat's right eye (on our left as we look at it) seems to have shifted toward the center of the cat's face, leaving a sizable gap between the green eye and the eye socket. That looks to me like the kind of thing that happens with G9, when the eye area is greatly morphed and the eye rigging is not adjusted to the new mesh. Since I didn't buy this cat, I can only guess. I could be wrong, but whatever the cause, it looks wrong to me. I didn't see promos of the other animals that would show whether they have the same issue or not. They were posed differently in their promo images.

    I don't have toon cat, but with the picture, I was thinking it was an unfortunate optical illusion because the light part of it has dark bars across it that look like shadows of the toony eyelashes across a highlight, which would imply there's something there for that reflection to be on.   Maybe the iris is only brightly lit in that small area for some reason.   Or, maybe it's something weird about the structure of that eye model, idk.

  • WendyLuvsCatzWendyLuvsCatz Posts: 41,415

    I have all the originals and dislike Horse3

    they all work and no benefit to me to update 

    I wishlisted the toon cat though

    I bought the new Toon cat and new Bacon, as I thought they'd prove to be useful as partial dial-ins.

    Has anybody tried? Does anybody know whether the MEMBER-PERK coupon is single or multiuse?

    UPDATE: As might be expected the coupon is single use.

    It doesn't work for me at all. I get the dreaded "Coupon code not valid."

    ...doesn't work on Quick Grab, Outlet Store, Gift Cards, Memberships, Licenses, or "Striking Poses" 2.99$ items (the latter however does not trigger the warning, though these items do not receive the extra 20% discount) 

    Does work on Daz+ products and New Releases.

    Or the "Posture" new release items, it looks like. I have one + some "Stirking Poses" and I get the warning. It's weird, because the exclusions I can see are "Discount excludes Gift Cards, Memberships, and Licenses" 

  • kyoto kidkyoto kid Posts: 42,368

    ..for Quick Grab and the Outlet Store  it states:

    Unless otherwise specified, no discounts, coupons, tokens, or other deals may be applied to Outlet Items.

    When I put a quick grab item in the cart and applied the coupon code, I got the Coupon Is Not Valid message.   I have noticed that occasionally Quick Grab and Outlet Store items can show up in other categories like the Featured Artists stores but without the icon.

    "Striking poses" offer and the one for Leona both mention that they don't stack with other offers.

    As for Quick grab and Outlet items, they are always excluded unless an offer specifically says "this works on outlet and quick grab items" (not listing them as exclusion is not enough).

    I don't hang out at the beach. Haven't seen anything of interest for awhile.

    I think one danger of continual sales is that you eventually run out of new or good ideas or content,

    That's especially true of those of us who've been with DAZ for 20+ years.

    I just don't find most of the new stuff appealing.

    That's especially true when I'm asked to buy something new just to get what I really want for the reduced price.

    Have to point out that "summer-fun" is not restricted to one use, and gives 50% on ten wishlist items.

    Given that for each daily event a buyin of one new item puts a list of artists items around 70-80%, combined with this 50% and tokens you can get quite a decent discount (93% in most cases), if you have sufficient items there overlapping with your wishlist.
