I'm not sure where to post this: I was wondering, since i have heard that some merchants are leaving Renderosity, Will they be taking there products with them, what i mean is, what about the stuff in people purchase histories? If they take their products, does that mean if we want to re-download stuff in our purchase histories, will it no longer be there? Hope that was clear... I just woke up. lol Thanks -SimderZ-

** If they take their products, does that mean if we want to re-download stuff in our purchase histories, will it no longer be there?** Exactly ... unfortunately.

You might find this thread useful to read. It is on the same topic.

Xena, point of order. I think Renderosity maintains a copy for previous purchasers even after a product is pull. I could be wrong. But I think that's how it goes.

Keeping backups for the registered purchasers in their databanks simply makes sense for Renderosity. After all, we customers can't foretell site politics a week in advance much less 2-3 years. I can understand if a merchant wants to remove a product completely because they may have an improved version, or may have their own store somewhere else, or whatever, but that just hurts their own customers. In these days when computers go belly-up at the drop of a transistor (and yes, this beastie is making whining noises), a customer shouldn't be penalized further by not being able to reclaim their data.

Not so, I bought things from Thorne and Catharina that can't be replaced as well as some other items that were pulled. Would be wise to make sure you have everything burned. When I asked Thorne about the previous faeries I had bought he was very evasive, said he would get back to me and that is the last I heard. Marque

Ah, hang on a mo there, Marque. Thorne is one of the most reliable, honest and trustworthy folk I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with on the net. Go have another word with him .. he doesn't know the meaning of the word 'obfuscation'. Neither do I, actually. What does it mean? Hee hee.

I do burn everything to disc, I was just making sure, being over caucious!!.. and raising a question people might be thinking of.. of course i hadn't realised it had been discussed previously. lol ;)

Marque -- I've also had only the most positive experiences with Thorne. I'm sure something else interferred.

Must have, guess I will have to try again. Marque

Yes please mail me Marque with your request again- I'm sorry it must have gotten lost in the shuffle of my attention deficit disordered days :( I will personally take care of it for you...

okay Marque, I have emailed you links to the 5 files you requested, and the separate texture packs, for a total of 10 files altogether. I'm sorry for the mixup here. :o( Please let me know when you have them, thanks! Thorne =};-}>
