This verification is required to protect you, the merchants, and Renderosity from stolen credit cards or fraudulent use of Paypal accounts.

Error Messages

"Order Processing Failure! AVS Failed: avsaddr=X, avszip=X. We were unable to verify your card address or Zip/Postal Code. Please contact Bondware Inc. at Renderosity Support
This error can mean several things.
1) The AVS (address verification system) is temporarily off-line. If you wait about 15 minutes and try placing your order again it will usually go through.
2) Your credit card company does not submit the AVS information to our credit card processor. This is rare and usually only happens with very small, independent banks or credit unions. Credit Cards have a two step process. An authorization puts a "hold" on the funds and a settlement actually places the charge on your card. Your credit card was authorized, but not settled because the address and zip were not verified. This means your card company shows an authorization from Bondware, Inc. as a "pending" charge; however, you will not actually be charged. It can take from 2 to 7 days for this "pending" authorization to be released from your credit card. You can contact your card company to find out how long the charges will be in "pending" since they will not be settled. Or we can verify your information over the phone and settle one of the charges manually. If you get the AVS failure, please do not keep clicking the Make secure Purchase button. Each time you do it puts another pending charge on your account.

Why is my card declined?
A credit card decline comes from your bank. Your bank does not provide us with specific information about the decline. You will need to contact your bank for the details. Usually, the expiration date, name, address or zip didn't match what is on file with your bank. Sometimes the card company places a hold on cards when concerned that recent purchases may be fraudulent (or out of norm for someone's spending habits), a payment is late, or the credit limit is reached.

Why do I get "Invalid Account Number"?
This usually indicates a typo in your credit card number or security number. For Visa, MasterCard & Discover make sure you have entered all 16 digits without spaces or dashes. The security number is a three digit number located on the signature strip.

Why do I get a message that my order can not be processed?
This message appears when multiple credit card errors have occurred on your account. Please contact the Store Staff and confirm your username, Real Name and address. Once the info is confirmed, you will be able to make purchases.

Download/Extraction Problems

When I select the Download button the download never starts.
Make sure that any Download Managers/Accelerators are disable before attempting to start your download. Our Secure Download system doesn’t allow the use of these tools. Firewalls or Internet Security applications set too aggressively can also interfere. Try disabling these applications before downloading.

I use MSN 8 and am having a real hard time downloading.
MSN 8 has a built in Download Accelerator. You can bypass this by using a standard browser rather than the browser supplied with MSN 8.

I am not able to extract the files from the archive using Stuffit Expander 10 on Mac. What's wrong?
As noted in the application's documentation, this version of Expander is unable to handle archive files which have more than 31 characters in their name. Renaming the file (to shorten its name) will enable you to extract the files from the archive. Until the application is updated to fix this issue, we do not recommend using Stuffit Expander version 10.

Purchasing Gifts
Purchasing a gift for another Renderosity member is quick and easy to do. Select the thumbnail of the item that you want to purchase as a Gift. Locate the “Gift for:" field. Enter the gift recipient’s Renderosity username in the field. The username must be exact. Select the “Add to Cart” button. If the username is located in our database the item will be added to your cart and display "Gift: (username)" under the items name. When you Checkout the Gift Recipient will receive an automated E-Mail notifying them that a Gift has been purchased for them. The Gift Recipient will be able to download the Gift from their Gifts tab of their Account page.
