    I'm doing manual installs exclusively atm as the machine I have Daz Studio installed on is deliberately and physically separated from the internet, and I won't be connecting it to the internet ever again.  If we are forced to start using Daz Central, with no manual downloads options, well I don't have Daz Studio installed on my internet appliance, so I may have to cancel my Daz account at that point.

    If it says Daz Central Only it means there are no installers.

    Everything says it has Daz Central, regardless.

    You can submit a ticket and advise us in this thread so we can flag it up.

    The readme for FF's Bad Girls Poses for Maeve and Genesis 8 Female (SKU 72561) is a placeholder for an unreleased product.

    No need to panic; read back over the last day's posts in this thread. What's happening isn't "install only by DAZ Central", it's "store glitch, no installers exist at all". Whatever bit of code was added to the store pages to display "DAZ Central install available" isn't checking first to see if there is actually an installer.

    This is something that's happened several times now in the last couple of months, no-one seems to know why. There's nothing us users or the mods can do, it has to be fixed by the people at DAZ putting the missing files onto the store download servers.

    Huh. The $6 off DAZ Originals PC+ coupon isn't working properly on the cart - I do have new stuff, but I also have more than $6 off older DO's in the cart. It's only taking about $3 off.

    @jakiblue  do you have any freebies in there? 

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    Nope. No freebies. There's a new release plus 4 of the "unreal new releases" to get them at $2.99 (actually, $2.09 in the cart), plus 6 older daz originals from the selections...none of them are new, all are old and all were DO's. So they should have worked.

    PC coupons usually don't work properly when there's a rule setting some qualifying items to a fixed price, not just when there's a freebie.

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    That's annoying, especially as I pay for that discount.

    That's a limitation of the store software. Hopefully the new one won't have this problem. 
    In the mean time, you can either make a separate purchase for those items, or buy it like that and open a support ticket to get credit for the difference.

    The DAZ to Unreal bridge is missing a download link. sad

    It says it's available with the latest version of Install Manager, but ... I don't use that. Partly because IM wants to install new content in a separate directory, instead of putting that new content with my pre-existing 15 years' accumulation of content. For me, it's easier to put everything in one directory, and then arrange sub-folders more specifically than it does. On rare occasions, content isn't set up quite right in the .zip file. If I'm doing a manual install, then I'm more likely to catch that and correct it -before- I have to find the new content while creating.

    Slower installing, but quicker creating. At least, that's how it works ... for me.

    So I'm really hoping that a manual install link is coming? ... also, that the "Feed the People" sub-bundle contents will appear in the Product Library for manual install? (I don't like to pester CS with "yet another ticket," when it's such a wide-spread bug that's already known ... and I might forget to cancel the ticket, if the problem is resolved before they get to my ticket).

    Thanks for your time, and hope you all have a DAZ-tastic day. smiley

    You can install to your "regular" content directory with DIM. Daz recommends using a separate one so there's zero risk it will mess with your manually installed content, but it can use whatever content directory you want.

    No need to panic; read back over the last day's posts in this thread. What's happening isn't "install only by DAZ Central", it's "store glitch, no installers exist at all". Whatever bit of code was added to the store pages to display "DAZ Central install available" isn't checking first to see if there is actually an installer.

    This is something that's happened several times now in the last couple of months, no-one seems to know why. There's nothing us users or the mods can do, it has to be fixed by the people at DAZ putting the missing files onto the store download servers.

    See this thread:

    https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/431921/not-a-fan-of-the-new-product-library-layout#latest

    Now tell me this isn't a customer unfriendly move.  I just checked my latest order.  The order date and order number are now missing from the product pages for all of the products I checked.  I rely on this info when dealing with customer service whenever there's an issue (say a certain ice cream bundle that has no sub-product page links included in the product library page).  This is making my shopping experience harder and less satisfactory, not better.

    Obviously I'm not the only one that is less than happy with this change.  I'd say change it back, but I'm guessing this ties in to the new store software that is supposed to be coming soon.  The issues that a number of us have are already noted in the above thread I linked, but IMHO the new pages should function almost identically to how the older pages did.  Obviously that is not the case.  New functionality is one thing, but removing functionality, with said functionality being critical information about the products I ordered, like the order date and order number, is another matter entirely. 

    Also, occasionally I do want the product templates as well, when I need to modify a texture for some artistic piece I'm working on, so being able to manually download those as well when available after the fact is also important to me.  More products do not include templates these days, which is a separate issue but does concern me as well.

    Hopefully the new store software will reduce the load put on Daz customer Service, but retaining manual download functionality, and including the order invoice numbers and dates on the product library pages should be a trivial matter at best.  Das Customer Service requires this info on any customer service tickets we submit, and now extra steps have been added to make it harder to do this.  Understand that I often place 3-4 orders a week thanks to the whole 'freebies mess up PC+ and other coupons' thing, so I have hundreds of order invoices in my daz account at this point.  Sometimes, when dealing with weird issues like not getting credit for a bundle even though I have all of the contents of said bundle that I acquired in a previous purchase (this happened when I bought Carrera), I'll need to refer to that order number as well, and I'm not going to remember the exact date I purchased that, as it was years ago now...

    Others have covered these points in the above linked thread much better than I can.  And as I noted, if manual install links end up going away, then that's a deal breaker for me.  So PLEASE restore the previous functionality as best you can Daz, this isn't working for me.

    BTW, after waiting for almost a week for the 'FG Ice Cream Bundle' and 'Out to Dinner Bundle' items to get added to their associated Product Library pages, I did submit a ticket.  I guess we'll see how that goes, and how much longer I'll have to wait to download those items.

    I'd forgotten just how much I 'loved' DAZ's belief that people go around chucking undiscounted stuff into their carts just to see what happens. *facepalm*

  • jakibluejakiblue Posts: 7,281

    LOL! I know what you mean. But then, I tend to play shopping cart jenga quite a lot, cos you never know when a strange glitch turns up.......

    Are there any PayPal problems at the moment???

  • DAZ to Unreal Bridge. Normal price: Free. Currently $13.46. Discount quoted as '--Infinity'

    Think there may be something a little screwy with this.

    I don't know about that but I can't even add anything to the cart at the moment - honestly are Daz trying to put themselves out of bussiness.

    I see more than 10 missing items in my wishlist. Just a black image like never loading and no title at all... So I even don't know if it's a problem on the site, or somebody who removed all his/her products, but I opt for the #1 option.

    My transaction at paypal went well, untill the page had to return to the Daz3D website. It somehow timed out on the Daz end. The order is still in my cart, while the payment at Paypal says "pending".

  • arbee999arbee999 Posts: 104

    Just made a purchase (Successfully smiley) and completed the payment, but DIM is not updating the items and when I try the link for DIM Install I get an error. Oh well, patience, patience, patients

    https://www.daz3d.com/tara-8   Download fails for 2nd day in DAZ install mannager

    Same with DAZ Central...

    Fails to work or actually gives an error?

    Download failed according to DAZ install manager. I start Queue and get back the message in the product line that "Download Failed!" I downloaded other products without problems yesterday and today too.

    I am supposed to sort this out with Daz too as somehow no product can be downloaded through the Daz Install Manager!

    What security sfotware do you use? What operating system? Wheer are the downloads being stored?

    I finally got around to downloading the Tara Mega bundle stuff, and Tara is the only one that will not download. Log file shows "Download Error: IM00072143-01_TaraforGenesis8Female.zip : Error - 404 : Not Found". Manual download from the Product Library returns a message about how the webpage "might be having issues, or it may have moved permanently to a new web address", ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE

    I'm having the same issue. Paypal refunded the amount a couple of hours later. I just tried to purchase using PayPal again and again it went to "pending" without success.

    Same thing today too 3rd day this happens and can't download her. All other downloads are working for me....  So only this one is bugged

     

    https://www.daz3d.com/tara-8   Download failed for 4th  day in DAZ install manager and central, other files are getting downloaded and installed without a problem.

    So I went inside DS and installed it from there, still testing if the files are installed right but I was able to make a render with her. So if someone else has a problem installing her, she/he should try the same thing.
