i would recommend just using AWS s3. No limits and cost is fairly cheap.

Duane Atkinson

worked fine for me and downloaded fast

Glitterwolf

Myairbridge worked great. Still having difficulty to just download one file though. I can find it, but when I highlight it still downloads all.

Morten Holmsgaard

the easiest way to find out what % you need is to take the flat base and scale it to 50mm and see what % that is and then scale the rest accordingly but to get even 50mm its 49,71% so roughly 50%

Ty Mansfield

Honestly, if you work out the password issue. For various reasons MyAirBridge is amazing. It dumps directly into my sorted folders without a zip. I dont have to organize at all, it does it for me. PERFECT

Joey

printed this Scorpid King yet? wondering what% will get him on a 50mm base? still new to this

William Lockwood

I also didn't need to enter a password for MyAirBridge

MrWho

Jepp, but since they don't get any personal data from us and my cookie monster is eating each cookie after use.... ;)

Errol

I tried that before posting. Yes, I can select files, but then what? If I click "Download Files" then MANY windows pop up, one for each of all the files, not just the ones I selected. If I click "Download Zip", then it start downloading the 2.7GB zip, even though I only selected the two supported claw files...

Did anyone else not notice this disclaimer on MyAirBridge? - Prior using the service you are required to provide your consent to the processing of your personal data.

MrWho

Something is wrong here - i don't need ANY Password for the MyAirBridges link or the files there?

Click the little arrow next to the folder name and you can drill down to the right file. Once you highlight it you can download the file that way

Errol

MyAirBridge works well when you download the whole set, but I can't find a way to download only the newly updated claw files?

James D Cheney

Just downloaded from MyAirBridge and it worked well.

Edward Martin

I sent a message but wanted to post here to be safe,I've been a patreon since June, My PC recently crashed and I've recovered all my files except for Plague-Mine Kobolds Sept release. Would I be able to get a temp link to redownload them?

Woz

I have not had serious problems downloading from any of the solutions you have used so far. If it did not work the first time, I just tried later. Nice that you added the additional riders.

Mathias Eek

Will we get previous releases added to our account as well? Archvillain did that, and it's super nice to have all the old releases on the same platform :)

Tyson Koch

Is there any reason there are not also Zip files in the sync main directory for the entire release of pre-supported and un-supported also? Works for the other patreons I do. That you can direct download them without waiting for Sync to make a zip file.

Shawn O'Hara

That worked really well, using MyAirBridge. Took about 4 minutes to download everything!

Cameron Button

Thank you so much for communicating your problems and the efforts you are making to remedy them

Mitch Ruebush

You might talk to the folks at Titan-Forge Miniatures as they have been working with MMF and have something established for this exact application. Not yet perfected, but getting there.

Nathan Fullerton

That worked amazingly well!! Thanks!

mike kolek

Is it possible to load the zipped folders separately?? for example save one folder as a zipped for the STL files, a zipped STL supported, a zipped chitubox folder, a zipped supported chitubox folder.. that way when we want to download we are only downloading the files or versions that we need / want??? might cut down on the file sizes...

Matthias Schobloch

Maybe, you should explain what exactly you mean, when you say "the way that you handle things".

Matthias Schobloch

Ok, that's a intresting information. So, we have still the situation, that only Titan Forge release their minis directly through Titan Forge an my beta test theory is valid again :)

Jon Liao

With the way that you handle things they purposely stopped working with you

Thomas Staley

after the 14th crash I stopped trying the airbridge download.

John Flanders

MyMiniFactory sends me links to your store fairly regularly. In fact, it was through them that I found you.

Tim Evinger

Titan-Forge Miniatures does it with there current month as well

Dennis O'Brien

I used the AirBridge link just now - no problem!

Dennis O'Brien

I know that Archvillain sends out their MyMiniFactory links the month after the Patreon - about the time when the models show up retail, I think. Which would work fine for me - having them ready for fast use on the Patreon, then stored at MMF for later download seems a reasonable compromise.

TechnoPrint

Also unable to download after putting the password in

MinionMancer

Yeah Titan forge are doing a large realase like yours and they are on MMF so that's wierd

David Ammann

I have not been able to get MyAirBridge to work, yet. It seems to be rejecting the password, but maybe that's just due to traffic? I have verified that there are not superfluous spaces, and I tried using Sync, as well (with the usual eternal preparing files issue). In short, I cannot download the files right now. Maybe I could download them via Sync one at a time. I am not there, yet. I support other Patreon accounts that use MMF or DriveThruRPG (my favorite option). I am starting to see this bottleneck as a decisive issue on deciding who I'll support. Its no knock against the quality of your work, but between sets that I am not enthusiastic about and the difficulty of downloading, I do wonder whether continuing as a supporter is right for me. I don't care much about presupport, although you have the best presupported files out there. I like the signature AG style, and I especially like the mounts/ monsters. I am frustrated, but hopeful that this gets sorted out.

Artisan Guild

Drop us a private messages about the boss needed, we'll tell MMF to send you those emails asap :)

Jérémie Mosset-Chafik

Too bad that there is a hassle with MMF, I think this is the better solution to this problem and others (expired links, old releases with supports...). They might really have a technical issue but it is indeed fishy if they have made it work for others. But maybe it doesn't work that well for them now.

CaptKankles

Same

Sam

Myairbridge was painfully slow for me, and it crashed my first 3 attempts. My download speeds average 300Mbps, so this DL should have taken about 2 minutes. It took nearly 20.

Turius Münsterius

If I could decide.... then choose MMF (probably in addition to the others). Why? No experid links, it is in my library and I can download whenever I want to have the files.

Jester

It works for me =) and it was nice not having to go file by file to download. Thank you!

Ron Staton

Sync is fine if you don't post gigantic files. Just keep them in small zip files and they work just fine.

Marc J Laude

Same for me.

Chris Saulnier

No luck either. Password wont work.

Dennis Pohl

if i try to download the files on airbridge nothing happens after typing in the password...... the password dissapears and....nothing

HAChaos

Yeah I'm surprised about MMF, the few I support that use it seem to be having a smooth transition so that's a bummer. It's really great to have them there and download them as needed. That being said I'll use whatever method is needed to get the great sculpts from AG!

Mathieu Pelchat

MyAirBridge was definitely much much faster. download averaged about 500-600mbps which is very good!

Christian Savarda

Have you considered using peer-to-peer torrent downloads to distribute releases?

Matthias Schobloch

Hm, very mysterious. If it comforts you, I never used MMF for my monthly TF downloads because it is extraordinary slow. I always wait a few days after release, as I do with your miniatures and then Sync always works well for me :)

Ben Darnell

I have been really satisfied with your awesome products! I've had one or two issues with Sync, but nothing that's a deal breaker for me. I still haven't received an invite from MMF for the boss and I'll just keep waiting. Thank you for your hard work and love that you put into these really cool mini files!

Paul Guy

Google Drive has its own issues, but it's stable at least. It does break up large downloads into multiple smaller ones, but gives them weird names so you don't know if you got them all. This is my experience with mz4250's Patreon.

Matt S

Just by offering the 2 services of Sync and AirBridge is good to go for me. I've seen a couple smaller patreons use a combination of Sync with either GoogleDrive or Dropbox. It's nice to have the option if one is not working that day you are trying to get files. Although I'm sure it costs way more to keep the services. Thank you for giving us options!

James Nelson

Awesome! You guys are great

Artisan Guild

yes it's really strange, they continue bouncing us at the moment, saying they need more weeks... Well now that other patreons are doing that too i guess they'll have no excuses

Artisan Guild

to be honest they told us months ago that they were developing a system for us and we would be the first to try out... or perhaps they told this to everyone? :P

Nathan

The only advantage of MyMiniFactory is retaining access to the files later. It is without question slower than any other service: it took me most of the day to download 1.8gb of files from this month's Titan-Forge release today. I actually don't have any problems with Sync: it sometimes takes a while when it says 'Calculating', but it always clears & you get the files much faster than MMF. Still, whatever works best for you is the best solution! Good luck!

Syrkres

Yeah, I have a Dropbox account, and the thing I don't like about dropbox is it uses any "shares" (with you) against your limit. Which when you reach the limit, it stops auto-sync and seems to have other problems. I've heard some people complain about GoogleDrive, but that seems the most stable for me.

Filip Milinković

Thanks for making a continued effort! Weird about MMF, because other creators seem to have pulled it off. In particular, Archvillain games have started MMF distribution last month with no problem, previous sets included. Sure, they are half your size in patron count, but why should that be such a huge problem?

BoldNotBald

Best of luck! Thank you for your hard work in this regard. I think I’d personally prefer MMF because models are available permanently. But I’m sorry to hear MMF hasn’t been very accommodating. Best of luck and thank you again for your incredible work.

Leath Ar Nak

Archvillian Games does as well.

Matthias Schobloch

Is there any other Patreon except TF, that develops their sets that way? I only know that single one and it's only the sets since July, not the older ones, I backed since January. I think it's a beta test, to make sure the new system works, before it's offered to anyone else. Or did MMF told you anything else? But well, if it's a beta test, they could have told you, that they testing the system already with another patreon.

Cedric FERRUT

Hello ! First, I have to say I only had 1 day a problem with Sync. All the other times I never had any. Maybe it's because I never DL on day one but wait for a few days. As you put this message topic, I just try to compare both Sync (I'm really happy with and have a few problems with it) et MyAirBridge (I just discover). Sync : 1.73Go data DL (I use your Zip files to DL). It took me around 15 minutes to DL (I have VDSL in France) MyAirBridge : 1/ I have to sign 2 contracts about datause before accessing the DL area. 2/ all my personal security system went red because of intrusive alerts (tries to scan my datas). I blocked everything. It didn't prevent me to DL files, so I continue the test. 3/ It took me around 15 minutes to DL half of the files (Currently, DL is in progress) and I have to DL 4.35Go of data. In short, I really prefer Sync :)

David Watts

I think the thing with MMF is just the content is uploaded just as it is when you are putting the models for sale after the month is over, but each individual patron is sent an invite code to add it to their MMF library for free. As long as their MMF and patreon email are the same. It sounds like it’s a lot more user involved on the creator side as that is a lot of emails to send. That could be something to consider in the future with passed releases. This way the patrons have access to them for as long as they are up on MMF in case they need to redownload them. This would avoid having to keep them on the computer using hard drive space. In any event, I do hope that you find something that works for everyone. I’m content with waiting till the last week or so before downloading. Just until all the rush and updates to models are done. Keep creating these wonderful pieces and stay safe! Thank you for all your time and amazing talent!

Artisan Guild

You can be sure well tell them about it. Please send us via private message here on Patreon your MMF email so i can bring this situation to them :)

Jon Bowers

Didn't max out my connection but was still pretty quick, took less than 2 minutes for the 4.35GB.

TheMorrigan

MMF is really losing my sympathy, I found it very weird that other patreons of similar size and style like you just got it working within weeks of announcing the switch and I think it's straight up ridiculous that it's still not available to you! I'll try the new link and hope everything will work out well, I really hope this could be a permanent solution

Aviad Madar

Worked like a charm!

Eric Bunger

I feel you regarding the MMF problem. As a big contributor to their store, they should do a lot more. I got some trouble on my own with them because they charged me 4 times for the “Illithid” set of yours. The just won’t reply at all... 100$ down the drain
