How to Download

Go to the website, and use the "Patreon" button under the Sign-in prompt. You will then be requested to allow 'Comics Games and Things' website to access your patreon public information. This step is necessary to link your patreon account with the download platform. Click on "Allow".

After that you should see November's downloads listed under your account. 

In addition, we've gotten October and September uploaded as well for those of you who were patrons in those months.

If there's any trouble, or you don't see the downloads, please let us know by PM and If we can't figure it out with our site expert, we will get a google drive link for you.

If everything goes well, we should have the entire backlog added to the site over the course of a few months, so users can select and download models at their own leisure. That means you won't have to worry about missed downloads !

Note: This is our first large scale test of this platform, so please be patient and forgiving if there are some technical issues. We will do our best to make this work. 

Note2: It only works on computer. Don't try to log with phone or tablet.

Note 3:  If you're having trouble, try disabling any pop up blockers for the site. that might fix it.

Do join us on discord to share your hobby with the TMC community :https://discord.gg/BztpB8dhttps://www.facebook.com/themakersculthttps://www.instagram.com/the_makers_cult/

Austin H

Hi, I just recently subscribed last month and am fairly new to this. Is there a recommended tank model to use with the tank upgrade set?

Ralph Chilton

Love the tank detail upgrade. I most work on dioramas and this is going to be great.

Sandy Qualey-Dobson

Cannot get this site to work with my patreon, it's linked to some other empty patreon account and I haven't been able to get it resovled. Any chance of an alternate download?

Steve C

Linked my account and can see last month's models, but nothing newer than any 4 Nov uploads.

Pontus Gingsjö

Hmm I dont see any of the new stuff on the new platform.

Olivia

Does this mean we can access previous months from when we have been a patron? That would be awesome!

James March

Quite funny i was gonna say we need ogres in gas masks

Holger Steitz

Hi, it is very very slow until it comes to the login screen here in Germany.

CC-2224

hey i can mainly see things from the last month, but not everything. But the month is still long you can get it going

Jakub

Hi! I can only see few models from October, but no from November or September. Hope everything goes well :)

Olivia

Wonderful 👍

themakerscult

GIve it a reload if you will, we had an issue with the date.

themakerscult

GIve it a reload if you will, we had an issue with the date.

themakerscult

GIve it a reload if you will, we had an issue with the date.

themakerscult

Hmm. I'll have to see what can be done about that. it might just be high traffic.

themakerscult

GIve it a reload if you will, we had an issue with the date.

themakerscult

Odd about september. I'll have to give them a look. Give it a reload if you will, we had an issue with the november date.

NStephenH

Sandy, you should be able to log in with just your email, please use the same email address as patreon. If you're still having issues please email me at nsh@comicsgamesandthings.com.

Gary Krieger

Quick question for us Patreon. Do we get a discount on CGTrader if we want to purchase previous releases? Or do we need to wait for a sale?

Jakub

yeah, it's fixed. Thank you for quick response :)

CC-2224

Thank you worked it is a bit unsorted but is not a problem and even if it hadn't worked your work would have lasted me a month without models. All the best and keep it up p.s. Sorry, my English, I'm from Germany and at work

PliskinAJ

In the future are there going to be monthly or at least model line categories? I like it so far though.

themakerscult

Just on the sales. We participate in the cgtrader seasonal sale offs in Feb, June, and Oct. We also do patron sales at milestones, (1500, 2000 ect)

themakerscult

Yes to both. This is just a large scale test for the downloads and patron access to older files.

themakerscult

Soon we should have sort by date / line and month options, but this is our first big download test. I'm glad it's working :)

Dynath Kajira

Is there just a google drive folder? CGT just keeps freezing in downloads, I've restarted them a dozen times.

themakerscult

If we can't get it to work we'll send a drive link. What browser and system are you using?

Jonathan Gallar

I am having the same problem on Chrome, Windows. No downloads working at all. Whole site is very, very slow too.

Dynath Kajira

Oh for reference this appears to be happening when I use the "download folder" Options. Firefox has the tab crash while Chrome is just hanging at 100% when it compresses. If I use expand and download individual files it seems to work, though I haven't downloaded much that way.

Dynath Kajira

Maybe we are all to excited and overtaxing the site?

Steve C

Are all three TL / BK folders (Heavy and special weapons, polearm and melee weapons, and Accessories and upgrades) all in the one pack?

Cj Eldridge

I click dload folder yet nothing is on my computer. Any ideas?

NStephenH

We had a brief issue with the incorrect date set for this downloads, this should be fixed now.

NStephenH

We had a brief issue with the incorrect date set for this downloads, this should be fixed now.

Dynath Kajira

It should cache the file and compress it to a zip file, that takes a bit of time. There is a counter in place of the button after you press it. Watch that to make sure it hits 100% then it should appear in your download folder. Note: Some of us are experiencing freezing or browser crashes with the downloads. I think they are trying to figure out why so if that's the issue you may need to be patient.

NStephenH

Speed upgrades will hopefully be coming soon, its only running off one server right now.

NStephenH

This may be overexertion or issues with the compression process. It can be slightly taxing on the computer and we may look into alternate download options. Can you try smaller downloads?

Cj Eldridge

Also! is there intent for valor corps cav and heavy weapons hehehe :)

Dynath Kajira

no? I don't see file size when its a folder I'm downloading. I can download individual files one at a time just fine. It's just the download folder option that crashes or freezes for me. I restarted my computer and it still happens. Switched to my laptop from my desktop and it still happens. I'm not sure but it could be a network issue somewhere between CGT and my computer. I'll wait a couple days and try downloading the files again to see if its just a temporary thing.

Csducks

Nothing for file download when I click on it

themakerscult

If we can't get it to work we'll send a drive link. What browser and system are you using?

themakerscult

Hi, what browser and system are you using? Which folder in particular? Do any of the others work? Do you get a status bar when you click the folder(s)? We'll get this sorted as soon as possible.

themakerscult

Yes. they should be in the polls soon, but we're doing infantry first.

Csducks

Even clicking on a link for an individual file is no go

themakerscult

Ah. As we mentioned above we aren't yet set up for mobile. Could you try again on a PC?

Will Nexii

Hmmm, I tried setting up my account... It was showing me all the available downloads even before I linked my patreon account? Linked it anyhow and still see the same download options? It also doesn't seem to want to allow me to download anything? I'm not seeing any way to download everything in a single archive like I used to be able to do? When I clicked on legion master otto w/ the "download all" button it didn't really work at all :\ It downloaded some text file but that's it? It says on the website that "download all done" for both legion master otto and the cronus captain? All that actually downloaded though is the text file for legion master otto? No clue what's going on :\ I'm not sure I really like this vs google drive downloads if I'm going to have to go through and download everything individually instead of just making an archive of the full set of releases and downloading that. I'm sure you can fix the part about it not downloading properly but its a definite nuisance having to go through each set of files and download each as a separate archive :\

Will Nexii

also, for clarification's sake, I am using a pc w/ chrome as my browser

Will Nexii

further note, i just looked in my downloads folder... I didn't see anything about a text file associated with legion master otto on the webpage. When I checked out the odd text file that appeared somehow, it says its 112 mb? I've never heard of any document/text file coming close to that size? Opened the text file, doesn't show any text? When I went to close notepad i got a message saying notepad wasn't responding. I changed the extension to ".zip" and was able to open it as an archive and it looks like it has the correct contents. The cronus captain didn't download at all in any way, shape, or form :\ It shows on the website that the download completed but i have nothing on my pc, not even a text file?

themakerscult

Well all of that is exceedingly weird. Let me get back to you. In future updates you will be able to download an entire months models in an archive, but this is all mostly a test.

themakerscult

I've been chatting with our tech guy and we're not sure what's going on. I'm afraid nothing like this has come up before. could you contact nsh@comicsgamesandthings.com and send him your console logs? If he can't get it figured out today shoot me a PM and I'll send you a google drive link. Sorry about this.

Will Nexii

cool, im in no massive hurry :) figured there'd be more than a few speed bumps along the way to switch to a new platform, and I very much appreciate you're going to make the entire release available in a single archive :)

Csducks

I have no access to a PC

Csducks

If all else Dropbox or mymini.com

Johnny Harbor

Its working for me, and its a bit more visual than the Google Drive downloads. Its nice.

themakerscult

I don't mean to sound rude, but if that's the case how do you view or print the files? When we set this up it honestly never occurred to any of us that there would be mobile only users. Is there a slicer program that works on mobile now? If so we'll have to make some changes to the site.

Jan hübner

if i click on "dowload all" no download starts

themakerscult

Hello. what browser / system are you using? we'll get this sorted out as soon as possible.

Jakub

Any pop-up blocking software will prevent the download, just disabled pop-up blocker and everything works. Might help some of you.

themakerscult

Also, be sure to disable any pop up blockers for the site.

themakerscult

Yes they are all in the same pack for this site. they will be separate later on cgtrader.

themakerscult

Also, be sure to disable any pop up blockers for the site.

Jan hübner

y popups are okay and i use chrome , if i expend the status i can see how the percent is on 100% but nothing start ...

Christian B

This is unfortunatily very uncomfortable. Why havent you waited, till it works (and looks) properly?

Paul Soucy

i just dont have this months stuff listed. i have 3 files that i can download but its def not this months release

themakerscult

Hello. Please understand that this site has worked so far in all small batch testing we have preformed on it. This is the first major test with a large number of users using entirely different systems and browsers.

Paul Soucy

I literally came back this month excited, waited the extra day now the wonky website we are being told to use just seems sub par to all other options. IDK maybe im missing somthing.

themakerscult

I'm very sorry about that. Thus far in testing the website as worked quite well, but today is the first large scale test with hundreds of users. We are working through the issues that have come up. As stated above we will send you a link if we can't get it worked out.

themakerscult

That's somewhat unusual. There must be some issue with your permissions. let me see what I can do. By any chance did you use a different email for the website as when you signed up for patreon? that has been a common issue today.

Paul Soucy

signed up using my facebook account so it all goes there i believe

Paul Soucy

no i just double checked, its all one email.

Christian B

Sorry for the asking, but did you announce that somewhere, that you use us for testing a new platform? Did I miss something? When I read I am forced to use a new platform without even knowing I said - ok, try it, before beeing angry and before writing something, but having the feeling beeing used as a tester without even knowing just feels not right.... sorry I have to say that

themakerscult

Let me move this to PMs as there's an issue with your pledge.

Dasaria

So this new download system seems to really want me to stay on the tab while it takes *forever* to set up a download, for me to do anything and it keeps causing browser crashes.

themakerscult

Yes from the above post : "This is our first large scale test of this platform, so please be patient and forgiving if there are some technical issues. We will do our best to make this work. " "If there's any trouble, or you don't see the downloads, please let us know by PM and If we can't figure it out with our site expert, we will get a google drive link for you."

themakerscult

So, if you need a google drive link instead, please let me know. However, I would appreciate it if you would attempt to use the new site first. It has worked well for the vast majority of users.

David Cole

Site worked well for me look forward to more old content being added and new features

themakerscult

Sorry about that. We have had several users reporting crashes when downloading the Abyssal hybrids or the Bk&TL parts pack, using Firefox. These 2 packs are quite heavy. Chrome and edge handle it with no issue.

themakerscult

If it doesn't work in a different browser and would like a google drive link instead, please let me know.

themakerscult

OK, I've asked our specialist to contact you to see what's up, if he can't help and you need a google drive link please shoot me a PM and I'll get one for you.

Dasaria

I'm also not fond of how, at present, it mixes previous releases in with the new releases and doesn't have an option to bulk download the entire month's releases at once for easy organizational purposes.

themakerscult

Thanks for the feedback. Filters are being implemented, in order to improve the user interface.

Quest Miniatures

Hope valor korp gets the open top boys on the bench..

Csducks

I have an app that lets me view them. But I drop them in my collection folder for later when I do start printing

themakerscult

OK. That's a good reason. We'll have to work on mobile compatibility in that case. In the meantime here are a collections of browsers rated by how well they work with the site. Go ahead and give some of the mobile ones a try and we'll see if we can get full mobile support in the next day or so. https://caniuse.com/sharedworkers

Michael Riley

Is there a plan to add mobile support later on?

Ryan

I have been having issues downloading the Vespaxii. Every time I queue it up, it takes a while, then the tab crashes. I've tried different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Edge).

themakerscult

Hello, this is something that will be implemented at a later stage, as we don't see how one can print models without using a computer.

themakerscult

I'll hand your problem to the tech support and see what is happening. Is it the only model you cant download ?

Christian B

Hi, thanks for your answer and thanks for offering me a google drive link. Please send me this, because the page is only working, if i stick to that tab, otherwise there happens nothing or its just super slow.

Christian B

But to clarify my angerness, I am really angry for beeing used as a platform tester without even knowing. No communication was made, no announcement, at least I havent found one. This is no good BP. Would you have asked: "Dear Patreons, we have an idea, something new is coming, blabla etc. etc. Would you be so kind and test this out with us? For shure you can download your files on the normal way, till everything works properly." I would have been fine with that and would have helped you out with all the feedback you would have needed. But beeing forced using a new Platform together with being used as a product tester without even knowing is a no go. Sorry I have to say that.

Leonard Hatcher

Eh, what was wrong with using google drive?

themakerscult

File recovery. We often have to provide 200+ additional links to individuals every month for those who missed the download , had an error with the files or a hard drive failure. In addition, the site supports it's own storefront which can not only add items to your account, but we can price cheaper as we don't have to pay cgtrader. A good portion of international users have difficulty getting google drive to work as well, so we always had to distribute additional links anyway.

themakerscult

We're hearing from users that If you rename the downloaded .txt files to .zip they'll still extract and work. We're trying to find out what the change was that caused the files to be listed incorrectly. We should have it fixed soon.

Peter Santucci

I do not want to link my Patreon account to 'Comics Games and Things'. I have no idea what that is. Why not provide files on Google Drive as well? If I miss the files that month. I probably did not care enough anyway.

themakerscult

If you would like you can create a new account instead of linking your current one. As long as you use the same email you used to sign up for patreon that will work just fine. As who these people are, it's us. this is a site we have been helping to develop and working on for several months now.

Csducks

Not even able to download a .txt file

Nicolas Lapointe

Just joined the Patreon, I managed to link my account, but so far I have nothing showing up on this platform.

themakerscult

We'll get it. As I said, we never thought mobile would be a priority. We can implement it, It'll just take a little time.

themakerscult

Hello and welcome! If you've just joined it might be a permissions issue waiting for patreon's payment server to refresh. Check again in a little bit and it's still nothing shoot me a PM I'll get you sorted out.

Kage Holman

I can not get it to initiate download.

themakerscult

What browser are you using? Are you using a popup blocker? Are you able to see all the files?

themakerscult

We're planning on implementing a download by month feature later.

Yellow Sign Studio

Ok, thanks, 'cause having tried it at my end, it is worse than I thought it might be. I will wait for that link. Thanks and Cheers, D

themakerscult

Give i another try. I think I found the problem. If not, try changing the extension to .zip. they should still work.

Giorgio Marino

It save it as .txt like before, but changing the extension in .zip has solved the problem. You have to convert all to .zip i guess.

War Mammoth

Download not working for me either. Thank you.

themakerscult

Hello, we've had some feedback from brand new users that the download does not show up immediately. This is do to a status refresh issue on patreon's end and we're working on a way around it. In the meantime give it about an hour or so and try again. If it doesn't work, let me know and there are a few other things we can try, or I can PM you a drive link.

Jose Perez

Will this system be set up to cover a user's entire catalogue. IE: Would I be able to download the Supertank variants if, say, my HD with all my STLs crashed while copying and everything for months was lost? (yes, that was very specific) If so, you will likely never lose me as a Patreon.

themakerscult

That is our main intention, yes. The downloads will be synchronized with your patreon subscription.

Jose Perez

Whelp, that’s a sub for life.

jimmy herault

bonjour pareil pour moi j ais esseyer sous chrome edje et meme modzzila auqu un des trois ne fonction et sur chrome je n arrive meme pas a passer la confirmation pour acceder au fichiers

Jan hübner

ok i have now downloaded everything. the download took a total of over 20 hours and demanded a lot of my patience, if that doesn't change next month I'll stop here... Googledrive was already slow but this is unreasonable. and each download has to be started individually so that it doesn't break off, so you have to be on your PC all the time

Russell Fyock

Hello! Im a new patreon and I clicked the link and followed your steps but i dont see this months downloads available.

themakerscult

Hello, patreon server needs about an hour to send us your status. Could you try again in a while ?

themakerscult

Bonjour, avez vous bien utilisé la même adresse e-mail que pour patreon ? Assurez vous aussi que vous n'avez pas activé d'ad blocker ou autre.

Russell Fyock

Absolutely! thanks for the fast reply!

themakerscult

That's very unusual. I'll look into the logs to see why it took so long. It should have only been a few minutes.

NStephenH

Have you tried again recently? Please feel free to reach out to me at nsh@comicsgamesandthings.com

Wakoun

Man this site is a mess to use :D Everything is mixed up, guest files from last month show up before the guest from this month, I'm not even sure that I can see all the current month files... Just a tip for ease of finding what is what and from when: If you could categorize the files by release month, it would be very very helpful. If tags are available, a tag for the month and a tag for the army (TL, BK, Valour Korps etc.) would be even more useful. Keep up the good work and good luck resolving the inevitable glitches.

themakerscult

Thanks for the feedback. Tags and monthly packs are currently being implemented.

Stefan De Clercq

I am loving the idea of the interface, but downloads take a while to start unfortunately. It also seems the last month's vespaxii were not uploaded to the site?

themakerscult

I'm checking this right now. Can you try again in a while ?

themakerscult

Just checking in. Have you had any luck with the guide?

christopher orndorff

Has anyone been able to download the TL/ BK- Weapon and accessories Pack? I've tried three times and each time it gets to "Compressing 100%" but the the window to download the file never appears. This is on firefox.

themakerscult

Please let me know if it's still not working on one of those, and I'll send you a drive link.

Yellow Sign Studio

Further to my last, not only is it inconvenient to download each separately, now that I can get it working, it is a glacial process for each file to download (the most glacial of all the services/providers that I have had the pleasure of collecting). Not a winner in my books.

Chris Bower

the TL/BK weapon & accessory pack won't download as a complete file for me on Chrome, I had to download it as separate parts, which made the already slow process even slower

themakerscult

Thanks for letting us know. we're looking into it now.

Joshua Kemp

If time permits, would y'all mind making a few more arm poses for the BK with slug guns? Or release the arms and guns separated so I/we could kit bash it ourselves? Keep up the fantastic work. Thank you.

themakerscult

The guns are separate in the folder: Weapons - Base Models- No arms. Arms are available on the discord in the derivative channel.

Joshua Kemp

Thank you, sorry for not looking. I'm old and keep forgetting that discord is a thing. :)

Tobias Prinz

Same problem here. Got to 100% after several hours, but no Dev console on Chrome says "Uncaught (in promise) RangeError: Array buffer allocation failed" somewhere in download_engine.js. I assume this is your biggest download, probably some internal time limit on the compressing stream.

Yellow Sign Studio

I would appreciate a PM to a drive link. Just not into whatever set up you've moved to. Thanks and Cheers

Christopher Ivory

What is the timeline for having monthly download packs available? Asking users to download separate files each month is unwieldy and I'm holding off until the November pack is released. If it's going to be long, can we somehow maintain the bulk download options on Google drive until that's implemented?

Patrick Tackett

Having issues with downloads. I have tried everything in the troubleshoot section. Any advise?

LewdyLudi

Is the site down at the moment by chance?

David Sanchez Plaza

I receive a: This page isn’t workingdev.comicsgamesandthings.com didn’t send any data. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

themakerscult

Hello, you arr commenting on a nov 2020 post, maybe are you trying to reach november 2021 content ?

Vicentini Luca

Same problem This page isn’t workingdev.comicsgamesandthings.com didn’t send any data. ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

themakerscult

Hello, Please replace the "dev." By "www." The site is now fully operational
