    My suspicion is that the bi-weekly freebies have been replaced with a daily freebie (the daily free item) as it averages to the same number of freebies every 2 weeks. No inside knowledge, just looking at the outcome). Regards, Richard.

    I reported the problem in the reporting topic and Cris Palomino sent an inquiry.

    If it's indeed a problem, it's unlikely to be fixed before office hours start in Utah (it's still a bit before 9AM here I think).

    thx for reporting. i thought it was more intent for some reason than an error, so i didn't report it officially ^^

    They are rather different mechanisms, so this seems unlikely. Also the Genesis 9 freebies that jhave been there for a while are, or were, still present.

    We have reported the missing freebies, which we assume is a mistake.

    Well, not fixed by the end of business day, so I'm guessing no hope before Monday.

    And it would be good if they'd change the wording on the page. They're not weekly freebies. They're every two weeks. The language should reflect that. As it stands, it makes them either look like they're either being dishonest or they can't keep up with their own offer.

    I hope the fortnightly feebies turn up - I very much wait for them each fortnight and recently they've been good G2 and G3 items.

    The Advent calendar this year has been awful - Michael 3 tunic, very old poser garden tool and other ancient pre-Daz stuff. I won't be buying stuff nearly every day this year like I did last year to get the freebies. Renderosity this year has 2 or 3 wonderful new items every day in the Advent calendar - G8 and G9 characters and clothing, i-ray environments, vehicles, modern poser stuff from top sellers, absolutely look forward to it every day!

    Just because they are called Advent Calndars doesn't mean they are ewquivalent - Daz has the calendar items, Daz Original store products of varying age, and the new freebies especially made by PAs  while Renderosity has just the store items, albeit they may be newer. Different approaches.

    Hi Richard,

    Indeed, every store has to judge what is appropriate for itself at the present time. I really enjoyed the DAZ advent calendar last year so was hoping it would be more of the same.

    It's Monday and there's still no biweekly freebie. It's been more than 15 days since the last ones. Why? What happened?

    As far as I remember what Richard Haseltine said, it's a genuine delay and the freebies are planned to be released but without any ETA or reason for the delay communicated.

  • emanuela1emanuela1 Posts: 669

    Ok, thanks:)

    I've finally hit the first time something I previously bought was in the freebies: the Valentine set. Sadly, I hadn't even had a chance to use it yet, even though I got it months ago.... but at least it was only 60 cents at the time, so... not out much. :)

    I'm guessing the jeans/Tshirt textures are 3Dlight?

    Thank you, DAZ!

    In fairness, if you're going to be running around in skimpwear, you probably need the sword.

    Finally got that Daz Horse 2 starter content that was only available with one of the bundles. I bought Daz Horse 2 by itself and a few of the other things many years ago before I realized it was exclusive content, and I could never justify buying a bundle after the fact since I had already owned most of the other items. Now I finally have the other breed textures and shape morphs. Best freebie in ages (from my point of view).

    Agreed! I thought it was part of the ongoing femme fatale/assassin motif that is so popular in DazLand. devil

    It's a surprisingly heavy download. Should look good at render time!

    Oh is it? Cool! I got Horse 2 a while ago because I needed it to make a unicorn, and had glanced at the bundle but went "meh" because a lot of what was in it was stuff I didn't need and figured I'd wishlist the parts later. I hadn't realized that youcouldn't get the extra breeds without the bundle.
