New Filehosting set up
🕑 Added 2021-06-04 19:14:31 +0000 UTCHello friends~! Patreon has unfortunately kinda forced my hand with this one. There's an issue that's been becoming a bit more prevalent with their discord bot not un-assigning roles despite people having un-subbed months ago. Thus giving them access to the files despite not being subbed.
I have since removed all monthly files from the discord and will now be initially hosting them on Comics Games and Things. Followed by Gumroad and Cults (after I get the supported files back/tested)
Now one of the coolest things this offers is a back-library of every file you'd previously subbed for, even if you're not currently subbed. A thing I've wanted to offer since I started doing the gumroad codes. This also gives you a full library to work with incase you loose a harddrive or accidentally delete something. I will be making a mass post to all patrons again to get inform people of this option especially if they didn't get in on the legacy gumroad codes (before people started giving them away xD)
But Piper you might say, I don't want to make another account :T
And you don't have to. When you open up CGaT you can use there login through patreon option, and this will both be your login, and as long as the email is the same email you used on your patreon, it'll pull my respective sub list, and automatically add all the previous files you were subbed for to your library. No more need to scramble for that end of the month download as CGaT will automatically add it to your library for you~
Now I'm still in the process of uploading all of my files to CGaT but this should be done by tomorrow. It will also take a seconded to get everything synced up when you link your account, so be a bit patient. If you're having any troubles here's a little troubleshooting guide they've put together for downloading files. And if you have any more issues both their main tech and support are on my discord for troubleshooting~
NOW with all that said I will still be using the gumroad monthly codes so that will still be an option for everyone and I'll be making a monthly (tier exclusive) post for the 50% and monthly fileset codes.
I'm glad I can finally bring something like this to you all, once everything's set-up I think this will be a fantastic way to keep files organized for you.
Thanks for your patience while I work through yet another thing, growing pains amirite?

Looks like it's all working now!

New subscriber. For me, the Welcome Pack on CG&T only has the Narwhal collaboration base in it. The November Fileset 2 pack has the Narwhal, so that part is working.

You need to use either your Patreon account or the same email you used for your Patreon account. Your Patreon email turns up nothing on CG&T so I'm gonna assume that's not the email you used for CG &T.

CGaT dont work at all, I bundled it but nothing happens
daniel schmitt
It worked. it just took a minute to register on CG&T. Thank you! Your designs are so freaking awesome, and the extra effort you put into making them posable, giving lots of options, and even doing such a great job with supports that they come off cleanly and easily. Seriously, you're top notch!

Once you're a patron, CG&T automatically applies the discount to all things in the store~ ~Pipes
daniel schmitt
just joined, because i already had most of your stuff from cults, so figured i might as well. How do you get the 50% discount applied on CGaT . Going to pick up the couple suits i don't have off cults.
Poyper
So all of the monthly file distribution is being done through CG&T, but all of my previous work is on there as well at 50% so long as you are a patron~ Which would show under printable files and then under the partners filter for PiperMakes~ ~Pipes

I'm having trouble braining where things are and what I have access to. I found like three filesets on CGaT since I just found out about you like a month ago, but I want the files from further back in your work. Is that on Gumroad?

CG&T is the issue. it should not take 20 mins to download 2 mini's from a site, their so called "back end" is the issue it download each file in to a zip file um who is this save time for ? its not just your stuff as well i have a couple of patreons that used it and its an entire day for me to download 4 patreons, I still end having to clean/repair and shrink the files down is size. endless downloads getting stuck on downloads is driving a man to drink.

The comunication between patreon-cgat si not authomatic.
JUAN V MARTORELL ESTEBAN
You must wait until 4 hours .
jonjonjonnyjonjon
ok, now I am directed to another patreons c g a t page
Poyper
If you've logged into Comics, Games, and Things with your patreon account it can take up to a couple of hours for the files to show in your Downloads folder. ~Pipes
jonjonjonnyjonjon
I can not download any files... everything is marked as unpurchased
James Wainwright
Bruh, I got confused by this when I first subbed, Piper isn't on CGTrader, she's on ComicsGamesandThings but they're both shortened to CGT.
Kuhnives
If you look under partners you can find PiperMakes there.
Riathenors
sorry to hear about the issues with Discord. Seems like things are working out though so I will wish you continuing success
Adam Fox
Hi I dont use Cgtrader much, but I cant seem to find anyone of the files anywhere on the page. Am I missing something? The email is the exact same as its my google account on both
David Tapper
Hey, I just subbed and logged on to CGT. I gotta say I was really worried about what was involved but like you said, I logged in, used my patreon email and boom. There it all is. Absolutely awesome work! I'm looking forward to what you create next!
Will Nexii
I have to say this, I've had a couple weird tech issues here and there with CG&T and Noah (the nstephenh guy) has been great to work with and he's managed to figure out fixes for them, I do like having a lot of my patreons in a single place which is pretty convenient and I'm happy the gumroad codes will continue as I've got a lot of content from several creators over there so that's handy as well anything that will give your content a greater degree of security is a good idea along with another way to access the full catalog is a good evolution :)
Poyper
While CGaT is definitely more function then form currently, I have been very pleased with how easy it was to get everything set up on my end. If you have any comments/suggestions//or criticisms reach out to any of the two CGaT tags on my discord~ I would reach out to either of them to get the address thing sorted~ ~Pipes
Poyper
The supported files back from Atlas3DSS. Then I can test print them to make sure my own fitment of parts is good, and then they'll be released. ~Pipes
De
back and test? from what?
Jordan Edward Smith
As a followup to this, the site DOES recognize all my past orders, which is cool. Still thought you'd like to know about the struggle to actually purchase individual files on there. It really doesn't like any of the ways I've tried giving it my address.
Jordan Edward Smith
Hey Piper, this website seems a little jank. I tried to buy some of your older files through there because I saw you'd set them to half price from your Gum Road prices, and the site won't let me purchase them. The checkout process is getting really hung up on my address, for some reason.
Adam Lingo
CG&T is also where a couple other popular Patreons host their stuff. It's quirky, but it works. I'm excited that I don't have to do the end of the month scramble to get my files because they automatically get stored there. Good move!
Jesus Perdomo
Innovation that excites!
