Vladislav

Hi Adam, I am afraid that model was released with the June Automata files, and is not available any more. I apologise if the wording was confusing. I'll try and make it clearer in future. There will be plenty more exclusive models coming in the future though!

Z-Adam Trumble

hi, new backer and total noob. "We've hit the "Wasteland Scavenger Digital Exclusive" goal at 600 Patrons! You'll find this awesome Bounty Hunter in the "Workshop Scatter Terrain" folder" where exactly is this?

joel pitt

Hi Chris, I am sorry for the slow response - I've responded privately to explain the situation. Yes - Had I not made the error, you would have automatically been charged twice for the two months of content in quick succession. I requested an additional payment from the small number of people affected so that they could gain access still. The cut off date given was in relation to the June content only. I apologise if it was unclear - we are new to Patreon and still figuring it all out.

Let me get this straight. You make a mistake on the cutoff date to get both the June and July content, then demand a direct paypal payment of an additional $9 to receive the files you promised?

joel pitt

Hi Joey I think the error is ours, Ill be in touch soon to resolve it. Thanks!

Joey D

Hi, I backed at what I thought was a couple hours before the cutoff for the automata set too. (the 'bonus time') Did I calculate it wrong (was I a day off?)?

Thanks!!

joel pitt

Hi Chris I think there are a few of you and I am looking into it. I have made a note to message you asap.

I placed my order before the cutoff, but have yet to find the link for the files. Am I missing something?

joel pitt

I made a deliberate decision not to include these parts because on reviewing them, they were too small/fragile to work well with home 3D printers.

I think we are missing the pliers and the hand with pliers from the folder :)

The message mentions PrusaSlicer, and it took me a bit to figure out but the way to do it is super fast and easy. Open Prusaslicer (free download), IMPORT the .stl, select it and click on the separate into objects button (looks like a square with an O, top right side of the tool bar). Then go to the right side of the screen and click the eyeball icon for everything that you DONT want (so it hides it) then go to EXPORT PLATE AS STL and it makes a new stl with just the item you want. load it into whatever program you like.

All the stuff advertised as pre hollowed actually just has big chunks removed from the underside which are left open - all the liquid resin will drain/clean off in IPA no problem. any actual hollow models will have drain holes or ideally separate parts which are glued on to cover a larger hole. I am still developing new techniques for the print at home process and we will get better over time!

Hey Anvil. do your prehollowed STLS come with drainholes. if not.. please add those. Resin that gets caught inside can eat away at the cured resin and will cause the model to break over time

joel pitt

Hi all, I've uploaded unsupported arms and legs for both scaled plus a few other bits. They are all in the main directory (not in a subfolder) so they are easy to find.

joel pitt

Hello, I'll send out the link again once the cut off point for sign ups has passed tomorrow morning. :)

Just commenting so I'll be notified! I have the same question.

Hey, just making sure as someone that was a late backer, we are still getting the link to this just after a few days right?

Louis Weinzweig

Hi I'm confused, I haven't been sent my link yet for Automata?

Joseph Bartolick

i'm happy that you supply the presupported files, but it is also extremely important to supply the unsupported ones too. The regiment arms alone have 23 layers with unsupported islands at 30 microns

Joseph Bartolick

Wondering if you could add the following files to the release: Regiment gun arms (no supports), G36 (no supports), and Phase SMG (No supports)

joel pitt

Hi Serpes - I'll be sharing some thoughts in the next update. We will certainly consider that (though there are downsides) - we do listen to all our feedback and we are learning and improving.

Atol

Thanks a lot for the models. Some of the pieces are only available in supported versions. In the mail you mention is easy to edit the STL and remove them but some of use never did before. The norm for other patreons is to offer the full range of files unsupported. Would you consider doing so for future releases?

joel pitt

The download deadline is tonight, the purchase deadline was last night - to give people enough time to download/test files/resolve any issues etc, as once the links go dead we cannot easily set them up again.

joel pitt

Yes, however, the STL's from that release will be available for sale separately at some point.

Kel

Yes - if you go to “manage memberships” in your account it will tell you the date and time and amount you will be billed. It continues until you cancel.

Kel

Yes, it is before the stated deadline where I am, even accounting for timezone difference, but I can't purchase it either :(

Jonathan

Just found and joined, after figuring out how this Patreon works it looks like I barely missed access to the "Over The Top" licensing...

Percival Sparkletrout

This is my first patreon. Does my subscription automatically renew for the next month?

Tijnemanske

I just finished downloading all the bits and pieces (piece by piece as the 'download all' didn't work properly). A nice surprise to see that most parts come with supports. I have prepared two full prints (lots of automata and the bounty hunter) and can't wait to get started... This month has been a good one, these designs are amazing! Thank you for doing such a great job!

joel pitt

This sounds a bit low, so its possible you did not download everything. Sync is being a bit slow tonight from the looks of things

joel pitt

Everything is uploaded in 4 different folders. We've double checked it. Its possible you didn't download everything otherwise you should have everything previewed in the previous update?

Vladislav

5 heads, 2 torsos, 5 leg positions, 2 legs from a spider, 2 machine guns, 1 machine gun, machine tools and 3 models assembled all right?

Vladislav

your release is 230 MB ? right ? you didn't forget to invest anything ?

joel pitt

We Decimate the files as much as possible while still keeping good quality at the scale, to keep the download (and eventual print set up) as light and fast as possible for slower computers.

joel pitt

As far as I know, Our Sync subscription does not have a limit.. but I imagine if hundreds of you try at the same time that might cause some issues.. It should work to zip and download the whole thing. Perhaps try again later or tomorrow?

Remi Solanke

Just download files individually and it works fine 👍🏾

Billy Buffet

Anyone have issues with the file not downloading? It's stuck at calculating size.

joel pitt

We will send out links again soon :)

I can't stop myself to subscribe on the last hours after seeing this post :). I hope to get download links soon. Great work.
