MyMiniFactory Files Storage
🕑 Added 2021-02-05 09:56:17 +0000 UTCMany of you will already know the new MyMiniFactory Storage System. We can now include past releases directly in your list of shared objects and you no longer need to download all the models before the end of the month. You will always have them available in your MMF account.
We will upload the current release at the beginning of the next month, for now we will use this new service only for previous releases.
How to Access :
- You use the same email account for Patreon and MyMiniFactory.
You should already have all your files ready here:
Shared Library: https://www.myminifactory.com/library#shared - You use a different email account.
You'll receive an email granting you access to the files in the following hours, there's no need for you to change your MMF email to match the one you use here on Patreon.
Read the next section so you can be sure to find the email. - You don't have a MMF account.
You'll need to create one using your Patreon email if you want to use this new feature. This is by no mean mandatory, so you don't need to worry, we'll keep uploading our monthly release files here on Patreon as usual (Sync + Google Drive)
How to Redeem the MMF email :
The redeem link for our files have been sent to all applicable patrons by MyMiniFactory.
This will come in the form of an email with instructions on how to redeem our files.
If you didn't see the email, that might be because:
1. The email is in the 'Promotions' section [Gmail Users].
2. You received the email on you Patreon email address.
3. The email is in the spam folder.
4. The message is in your MyMiniFactory inbox.
If you still can't see the invitation email from MyMiniFactory, please don't hesitate to contact them at:
https://www.myminifactory.com/contact_us (info@myminifactory.com)
MyMiniFactory's customer support will get back to you within 2-3 working days.
What's next?
We would like to be able to distribute releases directly through MMF, but right now the system is not 100% integrated with Patreon, it is not possible at the moment to detect a new Patreon and automatically send them the models. But we know that this is something the MMF guys are working on.
For now we are going to use the MMF system as a backup, which already has many advantages. As soon as the integration with Patreon is complete, we will make the change and we can finally say goodbye to Sync.
The mails of all past releases have been sent! Please let us know if it works for you, this is new for us too. Thanks you all!

I was interested in signing up but wasn’t sure I could get the downloads done by the end of the month. This post sealed the deal. You may think about putting it in the about section. It was near the top for me now but will eventually get buried. Love your stuff.

Thank you very much:)

Best ever, I am so tired of struggling with Sync downloads!

Thank you!

You're right! for some reason the .zip was missing in MMF, try it now, I just re-uploaded it. Thanks for letting us know!

Very nice option! Thank you
Andrew McDermott
Excellent news. Thank you.

The majority of the Patreons (and Kickstarters) I support use MMF in the same fashion and I have been very happy with this solution. Thanks for going this route. :)

Thanks for the reminder. I did not realize the Google drive option was there. I will endeavor to read the post and not just the email that comes out in the future. :)

Hi Kevin, you have a copy of the entire release in Google Drive. Have you tried to download it from there?
Kevin Walker
Thanks so much for going this route. I tried off and on all day yesterday (USA time zones) and could not get even the smaller zips to download. Kept having network issues, while other downloads for 4-8 GB were doing just fine from other services.

My Patreon and MyMiniFactory emails are the same, and I had the Nov, Dec and Jan files shared with my account without me having to do anything. I didn't try to download any of the models, as I already have them all, but the Download button was there (I don't have to buy them again). So, it looks good from my end. I noticed that the Welcome Package is not there. Not sure if that is exclusively for Patreon only (can't buy via MyMiniFactory), or if it is coming later once the integration is complete? Overall, a very easy transition for me. Nice work!
