Download speed ... will take 18-24 hours !!! - Polyloop

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 13:33

Eh Daz !!!

With download speeds of 5kbs @ downloads32.daz.com, it will take me 23 hours before I receive Hex2.

For sure the connection will be cut.
With only 4 download attempts, I will never get it !

This is NUTS.

Senyac · 28th April 2006, 13:40

i cant get my preorder links to work at all

and thats from eovias server .
they cant find the files??

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 13:43

They should have split the program from the docs/videos !

I was quite relaxed up to this point about the Daz take-over ...

BUT this really gets on my nerves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2% ! ... It will take another 24 hours.

NUTS, NUTS, NUTS, NUTS, NUTS !!!

Please, don't complain about DAZ problems here. It's my personnal forum and then not a DAZ forum.
Please, contact Bob@eovia.com about this, or the DAZ tech support.
And for your information, I think a lot of peoples are trying to download it at the same time ;)

Senyac · 28th April 2006, 13:47

yes Thomas , I think the servers are very over taxed at the moment

both Dazes and Eovia servers are having problems due to the large amount of people down loading ,
All we can do is wait for it to calm down a bit

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 13:50

I am sure this was known before. Daz could have rented download servers elsewere.

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 14:08

3% !

Let me say something good about Daz.
Platinum membership: $30.00
Hexagon 2: $2.00
Voucher: -$5.00 == $27,00 for Hex2.

Or about $30 CDN. NOT BAD ! ... But will I ever get it ?

schuubars · 28th April 2006, 14:11

IMHO i think daz is just a tiny bit insane. ;)

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 14:12

4%: For that price ... I will buy Carrara as well

ValleyMist · 28th April 2006, 14:45

The Eovia servers seem to be maintaining a decent speed, both files each loading at around 60 kB. You just need to be patient while waiting for the connection.

I don't know, earlier I kind of thought everyone should give Daz a chance. But it somehow seems that they have made a farce out of this release.
I can't exactly explain it, but it doesn't seem to have been handled with much class.

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 14:53

How come 2 files at Eovia and 1 file at Daz ???

ValleyMist · 28th April 2006, 15:00

One is the Golden Pack that has all the bonus content.

marcovth · 28th April 2006, 15:07

You guys are paying $60 for the bonus pack ?

$99 upgrade vs $30 Daz deal.

shaunmckinnon · 28th April 2006, 15:11

the $100 voucher I guess is suppose to pay as back for the 99.00 we paid for the product. I didn't pay for mine at all anyways. It was a gift from a client for prompt delivery of his website.

ValleyMist · 28th April 2006, 15:15

What can I say. I can afford it.

Corndog · 28th April 2006, 15:16

I think I was the number one complainer and said I would never buy hex 2. But at that price I did last night. Dwnload speed 586 KBs minutes... That was right after the release though. Hex 2 looks great and some awesome feature changes all for the better, IMO, To the people with the ideas and the ability to create Hex 2 my hat is off to you.

And yes I am eating crow.. not too bad either

shaunmckinnon · 28th April 2006, 15:19

Corndog:
any noticeable bugs?

yolao · 28th April 2006, 15:25

but there still no demo available

vagula2002 · 28th April 2006, 15:40

At least you have a download. I preordered Hex2 but still they didn't send me the link.

schuubars · 28th April 2006, 15:47

i've got the link ten minutes back, but i had to wait 8mins. before the download started, but the speed is good.

Thanks Eovia!
