Yeah, well it’s all fine and dandy - if you can download it, that is…
Has anyone who has had problems downloading had any success from the customer service department at Digital River?
:mad:
Well I’m having no luck getting information, hopefully I’ll have a response from Digital river by the morning… 
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>P.S. I’m curious why they would be holding existing CC numbers. Many companies take great pains of destroying documention after each transaction. I think using some other number other than CC#'s makes more sense… <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I agree. I’d prefer they use a combination of email, order number, customer number, and/or password. Just having the option for (partial) credit card number is enough to reduce their credibility a bit in my book.
Sounds like a good thing to write to Digital River about!

Latest irritation with this system…
ZBrush was not my most recent purchase from Digital River. So going to my most recent purchase did not help matters.
Still can’t get anywhere with this as of now. Not sure anyone will be available to help me at 1:00am EST so I guess I’ll have to try and contact them tomorrow.
While efforts at automation are admirable, sometimes it would be nice to just be able to download an updater that won’t work as a standalone installer so we won’t have to jump through these hoops.
Sigh.

OK - I guess I was wrong. Amazingly enough I actually got someone from Digital River on the phone and got this resolved. Sorry to complain a little too soon!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Hello!
I will be downloading 1.55b this evening.
Maybe one of the already successful downloadees could answer the following question:
Does the 1.55b release feature a permanent serial number or is it still temporary serial thing???
Thank you very much in advance!
Fantabulous!
My only classic apps are now Poser and Groboto.
I was a little concerned about the spinning beachball… but it seems that it is only being used as a “wait” cursor in the OS X version. This should probly be considered a minor cosmetic bug, but so far, the app seems VERY solid!
Now I am finally forced to upgrade my old ADB Wacom.
I genuflect before the zGodz
Its a temporary number… and
Its really cool that its a temporary number.
In fact I hope there is never a permenant number.
We should do everything we can, and yes, even submit to that mild irritation if it may restrict piracy of this program as doing so makes it better for all of us.
Thats my take on the subject anyway.
:rolleyes: :eek:
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you and THANK YOU!!!
Oh no! its back to Blood Shot Eye’s peering at the screen at 3 in the morning.
Thank you for sending a wonderful toolI 
There is one question.
The next file becomes an error when unzip(ing) a Zip file.
For what is this file used? 
ZBrush_155b\ZData\AutoNotes\Icon.bin
Hi mackey,
if you unzip the file with Winzip 8.1 no error occur. The filename Icon.bin has an incorrect character…

Alladin Stuffit Expander works good as well for unzipping stuff.
Hell ya! Aurick thanks for being so helpful with my email sent to you yesterday…you da man…
I had two error messages with Zip Magic, but my tests of the program so far suggest that the program itself is working ok
No don’t agree with you Antimorph, I have now had the program for two years and have had too many serial number problem’s. I look forward to a permanent, permanent serial number, so I can be certain that everytime I open the program it works.
When telling interested people about the benefits of Zbrush, I have had to tell them about the serial number problem, to save me from being lynched later when they found out. A majority that use their program’s for work, say, " What! a download program that requires you to be continually dependent on the producer’s, to be able to use it. How much is it £50, because it would need to be, with that disability".
I welcome the permanent number, it will now eliminate a serious dysfuntion when telling people what Z is about. I’m afraid commercialy Antimorph you don’t live in the real world, and to be sure Z hits the main computer graphics world, it has to be commercialy viable.

@ Antimorph
I’m afraid I can’t share your view on the temporary serial: it’s this simple: the purchase of a permanent license should equal a permanent serial (in my view) - this has nothing to do with the fact that I appreciate ZBrush very much… I also cherish other software and was by purchase entitled to a permanent license.
Furthermore I am quite certain there was news that a permanent serial was going to be implemented with the update and my purchase was certainly influenced by this information.
Best regards!
well I am now a part of the big boy club again…just got my upgrade and it is running like a champion!!! No problems at all with the download or installation. Thnx pix and gang!!
I’m now a happy camper.
I called Digital River and got the number downloads increased.
I was able to download right away.
I had a small snag at unzipping it, but I renamed the icon[].bin file to icon.bin and I was able to unzip everything.
The temporary S/N in the zip file worked first try.
There is a post from Aurick in the support forum that the number of downloads will be increased for the orders, so no one should have to call Digital River in future about that problem.
1.55b is awesome and I look forward in creating some models for Unreal Tournament 2003.
Bye,
Dave
