Mine said 2 months not 4. My subscription ends 2025-12-06.
I'm looking in our back end, and it also shows you have an active membership. If you're seeing it say you're on Daz Basic in the interface please open a support ticket so we can work with you and figure out why. We'll make sure it gets taken care of.
Huh. That is the same offer I am getting with a quarterly D+ that ends mid-November 2024.
I am probably going to stick with D+ through the December sale. I do most of my shopping 4th quarter since the bulk of my buying is G3 & G8 eras. The vast majority of new/recent products I buy are utilities (like Bone & Prop Minions) with a handful of props and environments.
Even it Premier was lower priced or I was offered a better upgrade deal, it wouldn't be worth it for me. Not counting D+ memberships, my Daz spending rarely reaches $25+ in a month, much less in a single cart, so I'd have more trouble using the $10 Off $25 coupon than I do using the $6 Off $18. Also, I have Mesh Grabber and don't have any use for the other DS Premier tools. That's not even counting my dislike of the subscription model of "selling."
I think this is probably correct, given how many people have accumulated these extra years by buying discounted subs. Of course members have to weigh up the costs and benefits - is it better to get those free months and then, if they stay, pay the higher sub or is it better to wait out the ending of the existing + sub before deciding - but I don't think it is at all unreasoinable to base the free months on amount paid when that is going to vary so widely.
It's a different offer for each person. We take what you paid for the membership you currently have, see how many months of Premier that equates to, then round up (so we give you a full month of Premier instead of a partial one.)
Have you use Connect>Connect to log in to your account, assuming you installed them? You do need to do that periodically (I am not sure how often - you can choose not to update metadata if you are worried about messing up custom categorisations, though the current beta incorporates chnages in how metadata comnfl;cits are handled which should reduce such issues).
Mine ends two months later - 2026-02-04.
Nothing has been taken away from the free version. Paying for the Premier membership gives you access to extra tools which are currently paid-for plugins.
Downloasd and install the plug-ins, use the Connect menu to get them activated and to access the subscription linked content (which has to be installed through DS, which does require a metadata update despite my previous post).
deleted. Some how my previous post got duplicated. I guess DAZ thought what I had to say was SO important it was worth saying twice.
There were already two versions - the Standard, which doesn't require a serial, and the Pro, which does.
I don't see this as I get a sub (not Premier, I think) as a perk, but you should be able to upgrade via your account.
To subscribe to premier, I must contact support? I put in a ticket...
You can already sculpt, to an extent, with dForms and Push Modifiers through weightmaps. I never purchased a version of Mesh Grabber so I can't say how superior it is, but it isn't essential. As far as I know the dForce tool isn't a new engine but a tool for managing settings, thata re already accessible, more readily or with preset options.
This has been answered, but since I had it opened I will just confirm that the free beundles are free, the subscription-linked content is different.
Not sure if anyone has asked this yet. I'm assuming all of the content we purchased previous to this will still be "perpetual" ? I have all of the items that are included in Premiere already. What will happen if I subscribe to premiere? Will they still be useable after that if I already purchased them?
I hope so ... five figures of content purchased over the years. Would be a shame to lose it all. 8-(
Is this what we have to install to access our premiere tools within DS? The public build-beta versions of this stuff in DIM?
Token "cost" for members is still 1 per $10, non-members ("Base") it has gone up to 1 per $15, and Premier members now get 1 per $5.
$18 a month? Last time I got DAZ+ I got it for about $20 a year, LOL
In any case, this is absolutely not for me so whatever thoughts I have are ultimately moot.
Of course that doesn't stop me from joining the conversation...
What I hope, above everything, is that the free tier doesn't disappear and doesn't get diminished in the long run.
Of course DAZ is telling us right now that nothing changes for users without memberships. Of course they would say that.
I just really, really hope this remains true in the long run.
Everything is a subscription now. I've long gotten rid of most subscriptions in my life, I don't even have Netflix or Spotify anymore. Hard pass.
Agreed, this is the one aspect I would be interested in. Would love to know if it's different from Mesh Grabber, and how.
Perhaps this will finally motivate me to learn Blender...
Could not agree more. I've long stopped paying attention to any sale that takes me more than a few split-seconds to understand, and it's been really freeing. With yet another complication stacked on, it looks like I'll be paying even less attention in the future.
Noi it's not standsrd, in fact everyone gets something different, I have 13 months left they offered me 2 months someone else has 4.5 YEARS and they only offered them 8 months...
Perevviously purchased content and most new content is perpetual, it is a specific seelction of items that are free to Premier members while their membership lasts
Install and then log in from within Daz Studio
Thanks for the quick clarification, Richard. You rock!
I can't see my current membership, but it is measured in years. Checked a couple of browsers, haven't received any particular offers.
Understand the Daz team are fairly small, but their systems are always a little frustrating and user unfriendly to navigate. This situation, in particular, is wasting some time a little. I'm hoping they will actually just fix this in the next day or two without a ticket / send us a useful FAQ.
Install error. Do I need to be using the public beta version of Daz to have these premier tools? I thought they were supposed to be a part of our regular Daz studio.
It should not matter what we paid...
If DAZ+ is now $9.99 a month, then each month we have remaining is valued at $9.99.
If we are not being given the full value of our subscription, then it's a BAD DEAL!
Only the "premier exclusive" content (AFAIK there is none so far) and the access to the "premium tools" are linked to having an actived membership. Anything else, including the free bundles you can get during your membership, is still regular perpetual purchases.
That specific package is labelled as "public build" so it's meant to be installed in the beta. Not sure if there's a version for the general release too as I'm not a premier member.
If you collect the DAZ Original character bundles, with the added discounts and the free DO bundle per month, it is worth the subscription. It's too pricey for me now though, maybe sometime in the 2nd half of 2026.
What I would subscribe to now, even though, strictly speaking, I don't need it, would be the enhancements to DAZ Studio aka known with those enhancements as DAZ Studio Premier, for $5 a month, for that sounds fair, if they add in HD sculpting and add in conversion to strand hair, it's much more tempting.
