New File Delivery Sytem - Beta Testing (Patreon)

Hello everyone!

We want to provide you with smooth file delivery and we will be testing a new system of file distribution along with the current one. Try it out this month!

Why is a new method needed?

1. In the last months, we have received many reports of problems with Sync. Their servers seem to be overloaded and with the growing number of Patrons and growing size of monthly packages, the problems will only get bigger.

2. We want you to always have access to your own files, even if you forget to download a release, lose your data, run out of disc space, etc. In such cases, you can always contact us to get a re-download link, but we want to make it even easier.

How to get files with the new method?

This is very simple! Log into your MMF ( MyMiniFactory ) account or create a new one. Your August Monthly Release should sit in your personal Library (if you were a Patron at the time)  and September Monthly Release will be added soon.

Important! Your MMF account has to use the same e-mail as your Patreon account in order for it to work. If you do not have an MMF account yet, you will receive an e-mail inviting you to create one.

How does the test work?

Right now we are testing this system of file delivery for the first time and looking for potential problems. This month, if someone joins the Patreon later in the month, they will not have instant access to their files on MMF. We are adding new Patrons manually every 24 hours (morning CET). 

We are working on a method that will do it automatically, but for now, if you have just joined the Patreon, or do not have an MMF account yet, you can always get the files the old way - by using a link to Sync (you will find the link in the Release Post),

What's next?

In the future, we are planning to add all your previously acquired monthly releases to your private MMF Libraries, so that you have all your models in one place. 

If this solution works we will also be able to provide you with the newly pre-supported files for the old models you already have.

Although this new file distribution system is not fully implemented yet we are excited about the opportunities it provides. We want to make the file delivery quick, unproblematic, and comfortable so that you can focus on printing and your hobby!
