OK, I'm happily installing all of my robots... and hit a question. Everything, including anything from DAZ, gets extracted to its own folder. I ended up with 2 DAZ robots... both of the VISE installers say "robot"... and I'm pretty sure that they both have a d-bot.cr2 file inside. However, these are not the same robot. Either a Phyrexian Gremlin and all 88 cousins got in my computer or DAZ offered 2 separate free robots over the last couple of years. I'm not ready to put out milk to appease gremlins, so which robot is which? Can anyone put a name to these? Carolly the Confused

the silver one is D-Bot(d-bot.exe.) The other one I dont have, so no clue what its called...

They're both by DAZ. The one on the left is an older DAZ freebie (product code ps_ch025).

It's supposed to be a toy robot. After it was a freebie, it was put in the daz store for $9.95. (ps_ch025)

Thanks! So the one on the right is the real "d-bot", and the other is "robot". Next question: Ultraman and Ultrawoman look like androids... are they? Or are they superheroes? I'm not familiar with their universe. Carolly

Yep, this is the real D-Bot (DAZ Droid) posing politely here and... waitaminit.. HEY! JICC, stop beating up the other robots! Okay, it's D-Bot on the left. About to have his ass handed to him by JICC3000. B^)

Oh, wait, that's another DAZ bot. Dammit, you're right, this is confusing...


Lyrra posted Sun, 09 February 2003 at 4:48 PM

Dodger waitaminute ... the on the left is your new bot ... the one on the right is the Plat club bot... I think

L Not my left, his left. B^) Remember, I'm a Poser Content Developer. <-- Right (rHand) --> Left (lHand)

Ack!! There really are gremlins in there... and they are making robots faster than Ferraris on a production line. So... 4 robots from DAZ? I hope that give the internal files different names! :deep sigh: Carolly

Carolly, don't worry! LOL The 2 in your image are the DAZ toy robot on the left and the D-Bot on the right (freebie Dec'02) In dodger's image we have his own JICC3000 on the left and the DAZ (Platinum Club) Droid on the right. So - 3 robots from DAZ, of which only one is a D-Bot. Kick the gremlins out in the garden! :o)

Note also that the Droid has been updated - there's a special uppdate file for it at DAZ. :] Fish

Robots out the wazoo... Look through the various Free Stuff sites (here and elsewhere) and the bot infestation gets even worse! B^) (Sorry I don't rememeber where these all came from exactly -- I rendered the pic over a year ago)

Where'd you get Vincent from 'Black Hole'? He's the one floating above the Dalek :)

Why shouldn't speech be free? Very little of it is worth anything.
