RE: FF's Bad Girls Poses for Maeve and Genesis 8 Female
I liked some of the poses in this set and picked it up and THEN noticed it only has DAZ Central as an installer. I happily plug along with just DIM, and never tried DazCentral after reading the horror stories in these threads.
FWIW though, there is a Manual Install download option and I am fine with that. Took me a minute in DIM scratching my head in confusion "Seems like I had more in my cart...:" And so I DID.
Edit: Tried using the Manual Download button and it only takes me to the product page with no download link. May have to put in a ticket, perhaps even a refund request if not available any other way than D-Central. Stay sharp out there shoppers!

I didn't want it fortunately but if they are going to start this business and it's not a mistake thank you for the warning thread
I hope we won't be seeing more products added to the list.
I presume it's a mistake, however I'd be raising a ticket if I'd bought it.
This probably isn't a Daz Central Only product. Recently there's been several instances where ALL of a product's installers (DIM, Daz Central, manual) are missing & this is probably the latest. For some reason, when this happens, only the Daz Central option is listed, even thou that won't work either.
Daz3D will get it fixed but not sure how long it will take; it's been reported in the "There's always another sale" thread.
Chloe by Angel-Wings is also affected, only she doesn't appear in DazCentral either. I haven't tried Daz Central since the dreadful beta but it doesn't appear to be any better.
If this problem affected their ability to take our money it would be fixed immediately !

I can't download this by ANY method lol
It doesn't show up in DIM, the Manual Download page doesn't have a link to download it, and DAZ Central doesn't show it in my recent purchases.
Same thing with DD Maeve.
And then the "bundle buyer' purple banner thing apparently is single-use only, even though I don't see that explained anywhere. Just decided to see how much the mouse was with the discount, but there's not extra discount. Not a good start to a shopping day lol
Right, if it says it has Daz Central files and nothing else you can pretty safely assume it actually has no installers at all - generally anything that is available through Daz Central has to be available through DIM.
I have that banner with %20 off mouse drops down from $$23.07 to $$18.46, off course if that is the only thing in your cart, discount would be less if you have other stuff as it is 20% of entire cart not individual items oh correction sorry appears it is 20% off each item just tested adding another item
Yeah there's an issue with both and tickets are put in, Gogger. Hopefully it will fixed ASAP so everyone gets the download links. I don't have them either yet ;)
Yeah, sorry about that guys. Thanks, Grogger, for pointing it out. Glad you liked some of the poses and I'm really sorry about the ensuing frustration. The Daz site has been having some issues of late, and it appears my pose set is the latest victim. As Disparate Dreamer pointed out, tickets about this have been submitted. We'll see what Daz does. Hopefully it will get sorted out soon.
It was never my intention for these poses to only be offered through DazCentral, so I'm thinking that it's a glitch in the upgraded system. (Even behind the scenes the PAs are having issues, so you guys aren't the only ones.) But, to be fair, I sold the set to Daz, and they might be trying something in marketing that we are unaware of. They do that from time to time to test the market. And if that's the case, then unfortunately it does affect my back catalog sales - which AREN'T DazCentral only, I might point out.
But I'll see if I can get some answers.
For future reference-- there's no such thing as Daz Central Installer only because Daz Central uses the DIM installers. If it's available for DazCentral, it's available with DIM and manual download (because those are all the same file/installer).
Thanks, everyone, for the input. I figured it was just "the bewitching hour" in the store, but then started thinking about the old days when there were some DAZ Connect items that were Connect ONLY for a period of time (a whole year???!!) and my eye started to twitch a little - ha ha. I knew about the DIM/CENTRAL relationship thing, but hey, my eye had already started twitching. Seriously though, I wasn't going to worry about it until the DAZ store had time to settle down. I'm glad to hear it was not a new forced compliance technique again.
Onward and Upward - Render On, Garth!
I just checked and it is showing up in DIM now and I have successfully installed it. YAYYYY!
Glad to hear that it's resolved, Gogger (and apologies for mistyping your name in my previous post. My fingers have a way of typing things that the brain doesn't tell them to do. They have a mind of their own when I type sometimes.)
No worries! And intelligent, self-typing fingers are just one sign of artistic greatness! Especialdkdjfiue kjdflkf elkjf'l; vvvv welrjelre .. (Well, mostly)
Re: Bundle Buyer Purple Banner. I purchased a gift card and a PC+ new release to trigger the 20% discount. After that purchase was complete, I carted Mr. Mousie and it showed only 30% discount, left him in my cart. I decided to complete Mr. Mousie purchase, brought up my cart and the additional 20% discount was applied and checked out. Just a few minutes ago I carted another item and it too received the additional 20% discount.
My hunch is MY purple banner discount will disappear at DAZ midnight time.
