clicked the link to the demon girl course: https://www.3dmotive.com/f107301

it has a huge "plugin is needed to play this content" box, but clicking it tells me there's no available plugin. i've just manually updated flash to check if it was that, i'm running firefox, on win7 64bit.

Yeah, the site has a problem with FireFox at the moment. I'm really hoping it gets sorted soon! There's a note on the main page:

"Currently, there is a bug with Firefox and the video player. Please use Chrome, IE 9+, or Safari to view the videos."

almighty_gir

heh, well i won't be buying until it's fixed =]

praetus

Yeah, I saw that as well. I can't watch anything unless I change my browser.... I really hope they're working towards a fix and it's not just "change browsers, lol"

Ott

We are Michael, I promise

Really great update Don, nice clean layout and everything is organized. Although I have one question, will you be implementing a forum into the website? That was one of my favorite parts of the old website.

praetus

Awesome to hear Ott. You guys have been doing an awesome job and I'm sure that the overhaul is very involved. I didn't mean to come off negative as you guys have helped me tons with the videos you've been producing. Keep up the good work.

Did you guys raise prices seems a lot more expensive

Ott

Hi Nick! We adjusted our access prices, yes. As we've grown considerably, and this is the first time we've changed them since we started streaming a couple years ago, we've had to adjust accordingly. Our 3 month plan is only $3 more than our previous prices, and our 6 and 12 month points are just a few dollars more than they used to be.

Our goal is weekly updates and content, so we feel for the access to our library the prices are still a considerable deal. We also regularly run promotionals and discounts, as well as a standing 25% discount for students, and 35% discount for educators. I hope that clarifies!

nick2730

yes it does, if you accomplish that then its well worth the price, but its not worth it right now since ive seen most the content. So get MOAR !! :-)

Is the forum going to be coming back online? It was cool to see peoples work that they learned from the videos and so on, I lurked it from time to time.

Its a shame the video player doesn't work with firefox right now, that's the main thing stopping me from subscribing right now.

Ott

We're working to get forums up soon as well. The Firefox issue is high on our list, and we're investigating our new player options. We had switched our player to support mobile, but once we had chosen the player and gone considerably far down the road we didn't realize that FireFox was no longer being supported. We're hoping to have a new player / fix in the coming week or so.

Also.. does that only count for students in an actual school (with building and all) or also for home students (full time home students i mean then).

Ott

For both of the above - email us with your school details, and if possible, from your .edu account with the name of your existing account if you already have one - and we'll set you up

We're willing to work with all students!

KennyTies

Awesome, glad to hear the forums will be back. Great work Don and all at 3dmotive. Really like the new site.

Seaseme

Hell yeah don! Love the new site. That is some serious sex webdesign in such a short amount of time! Congrats

LRoy

very cool stuff.

Ott

Cool thanks for the feedback guys! We've got a list of bugs we're squashing this week, then moving on to updating our player to fix the Firefox issue. Lots and lots of polish and updates coming soon, and not to mention a killer lineup in store!

pear

BANGARANG!

Ott

Hey guys!

We're having a 30% Off Valentines Day Sale!

Use offer code LOVE3DM for 30% off new Signups and Downloads between now and Sunday!

Help spread the word, and check out the latest at 3dmotive.com

bnosam

Just subscribed for a month to try it because of the Valentines day sale. Does the one month subscription auto renew at the end of the month?

Are there more environment related videos planned (I'm too much a newbie to be doing characters and I enjoy environments more anyhow)?


Is there ever going to be a way to download the videos directly? I hate watching them online in a window.

Thanks

Ott

Yes it will auto-renew until you cancel.

More environment and prop art in the works!

You can download videos as opposed to the subscription plan here - https://www.3dmotive.com/downloads

Hope that helps!

HardBaller

Awesome sale offer Don. Looking at the download section now and going to get it tomorrow. Just figuring which i'll need most (and the old maya = movies / 3dsmax = games debate to decide hehe). Anyway awesome deal just wanted to say that.

bnosam

Just watched the video on Texturing an Industrial Door and that's worth the price of a month's subscription itself. Thanks
