Regarding previous Releases. And some news!
🕑 Added 2020-09-15 18:26:59 +0000 UTCHi all.
I wanted to talk today about a topic that is generating confusion and being recurrent in the questions I receive. I hope this post make it a little clearer and I'll take the chance to announce a new feature for the Patreon.
If you have joined the patreon recently you may have noticed that we have already had 3 Monthly Releases (not counting the current one in September) but that, however, the files are not available for download in any of the posts. This is not due to a Patreon error nor are you looking in the wrong place. The files for each Release are only available during the month in which they were released, as they are "exclusive" content for those who supported the project at that time. Every last day of the month, before uploading the new release, the previous files are deleted. Right now, the only exception is the Articulated Chest Pack.
This is because until this moment the models weren't mean to act as a product that I am selling, but as a reward and thanks to those who have decided to support me in what I do, and have chosen to bet their money on my project. Somehow I feel like this is the way to be fair with that decision.
However, I believe that there are also those who would have supported the project before, if they had known about it, and that not having the opportunity to access the previous files can be frustrating. So I want to officially announce something new:
In the next few days I will open an online store where all the models published so far on Patreon will be available, mainly grouped by packs. Along with this, every month patrons of all tiers will receive a discount code for all items. With this discount, the value of each pack will be closer to the monthly contribution of the Guild Member tier.
I cannot give an exact date since I am still working on the look of the page, and setting everything right, but as soon as it is available I will notify it both on Patreon and on social media.
Although this is not the last step in making all models more accessible, this is it for now. Step by step I hope to be able to make this patreon an enjoyable experience for everyone. Do not hesitate to let me know your opinion in the comments!

Hi, That won't be a problem. Since Patreon keeps a record of every month that you have been an active patron, I can just send you any set that you are missing, in this case, all of them. It may take me a few days though. You are right about the problem with so many files, that is why i started to share just a .rar file containing the full release. I hope that makes it easier :)

Hello, I thought that the files would always be available and that is why I had not downloaded any, it is also a bit difficult to download them (in their time) since they were a lot of files, I also do not remember seeing an indication that you would remove the files at the end the month. Therefore, I no longer know if it is more profitable for me to continue on Patreon or better to wait for you to make the packages. Best regards
