For myself, long live CGTrader and may they keep their principles as they grow. I do agree with you regarding the search engine. It seems to me that over time a CGTrader will be able to overtake TurboSquid in many positions, if TS does not change its policy. It is the best RR in the world ! Then there is the stupid "reputation" point issue. And some may post a part of a set, and ad a link to the complete set, others may just do it to spread their work and name, etc. - CGTrader pays immediately; TS waits until the end of the month. When you just start out you have to price your models at 1 dollar or give them away for free but the second you start selling well they take your models offline and force you to raise your prices Once you raise your prices nobody buys and you are back to square 1. [http://www.google.com|google11] CGTrader is extremely accessible, perhaps too much so for its own good in some lights. Dear adentonclark, The claim Turbosquid made was that it infringed on Games Workshop IPs. I sell my shipping container which is professional model according to my buyers reviews . There are very few modelers out there who can actually support themselves financially doing this and whenever one of us sells anything it is a little like winning the lottery. Despite offering models much cheaper (obviously) here than at TSquid, the clients prefer to buy on TSquid. Got my model (https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/furniture/cabinet/handles-vol-01-pbr) A possible solution for potential buyers looking to sample the work of sellers, would be for sellers to have their free sample models at a low minimal price instead of free. There are currently no models in your cart. The more people ho place your item in their stores the higher your ranking for that product gets "in the pool that is". I tested it with golden palace, clothing and various hair, other textures, they all worked fine August 22, 2022 at 6:03 am #1859211 Sabrina Participant Rank: @Goblyn Glad you enjoy it! If you continue to price your models higher on TurboSquid, you will will not be able to publish your content on TurboSquid, and we will temporarily take your current models offline. A shitstorm war is going on between the "Wisdom" brothers & their Top $ Corporate Investors against Marius' CGtrader, who is leading the inclusive people that don't dance to the song of dangling shiny coins in front of their eyes just for the time being and the now. So if I am looking after regular CG models, afters a few minutes search, my logical choice is not to search on CGTrader but rather on "old-fashioned" sites. My price at the time was same both on Ts as on CGt but after some time position on CGt got better and sales was picking up. Maybe there is something behind the scenes what you can't know or can't tell? We will only contact you if there's a problem with an order. Thanks for sharing Your experience and thoughts. If you have any questions about these. To be honest, when I first found this site a few days ago I was really excited. Products are subject to the TurboSquid, Inc. In my personal opinion TS is working very hard towards buyers and exploits sellers as much as they can, well except few chosen ones, while CGT is taking great care about sellers, but leaving buyers somewhat aside. And therefore it doesnt matter where it is. Hello. High hopes for Cgtrader. Most small or midsized companies I worked with, did their best to cap their scene polygons at no more 500,000 all models included. Doesnt matter the kind of kinky-dinky stuff the platform provides me. I hope I'll have better selling results there. This is critical information (to me at least) in regard to evolution and overall development of the products and services you want to deliver. - Are you interested in just some quick cash grabs and extras here and there while you can, or would you like to be able to contribute to a fair market where you can make a living out of your passion? 3dsky.org2. We are looking for contributors. When pressed, Turbosquid could give no clearer specification than "it is too similar". So true! In previous post the buyer mentioned he don't get reputation points for buying models? Personally I don' t see anything offending on human body, everyone has one but I respect that it could be offending to someone (especially kids) so it should be censured. You can enter multiple email addresses separated by commas, Thank you for shopping at TurboSquid. I'm not a modeler, I come here to buy models and this site is surprisingly obtuse when it comes to layout. Another thing that makes CGT better than TS is the friendships that one is able to make within the artist community. http://content.screencast.com/users/Lenwe/folders/Default/media/d7b76144-43db-4cbe-b27b-8ea42b3a7cb0/TurboSquid_Low_Sales.png It is a shame that cg trader has so few people using it but turbosquid has been going for some time now and is very well established. The problem is that the site is not able to get a clear separation between CG and 3D printing. This conversation has me glued to my monitor, all very well spoken and nailed down to the core. I'm even considering seriously closing my store here. rigged People SixPack 003 - Photogrammetry Population Character Rig, max blend c4d xsi ma lwo 3ds dae dxf fbx obj X, City People x500 Static Poses Lowpoly ArchViz, 20x LOW POLY CASUAL ELEGANT SITTING WOMAN MAN PEOPLE CROWD, Naked Fitness Blonde Woman with Tied Hair, max c4d unitypackage upk max ma c4d max ma fbx max.

Order 3D models. They said fraud protection is only reserved for exclusive sellers. For me is more offending that kids are able to sell models here. And I've done the same thing on Turbosquid, in the same period of time. (just playing with ideas here) Unlike Turbosquid which has remained practically the same since it was created and that actually has become dodgier over time as they have been adding more and more hoops for artists to jump through just to upload a basic model CGT has been great about constantly listening to it's artists needs and made great improvements! Hello, Ha, ha. I have to be honest about my view else who am i. This is new era, time of old fashioned corporatism is going to be over. So what I did was simply adding the 60% cut to the product on Ts. Basically giving your money to a tyrant of a service, not even free to set price on your own products accordingly. I was stunned to get informed there was no fraud protection (yes people, you pay 60% cut and get no fraud protection). They also have multiple sellers selling the same products so that it is easier for people to avoid people paying for shipping in their country. but outside of the fact cgtrader is 95% designers and 5% customers its way better and easier to use more professional looking and feeling. My current store on CGTrader includes numerous items that were deemed to be infringing upon GW IP (link below). CGT needs to get on Amazon a.s.a.p or partner with all the top leading commercial comps in order to make 3D more interesting to more buyers. TurboSquid be avoided guys! [http://www.google.com google5 ] I think we just need so some massive killer models of epic proportions that the 3D modeling community cant ignore. It's an example of waste of human recourses and time, because how many more are performing this same conversion work without telling? And in terms of openness and freedom CGTrader is the first. What, iterateCGI goos down? I think these are questions that every 3D content creators must honestly answer for themselves. I really enjoy the chance to get to know other people's opinions and experiences regarding how they sell, network and do business and that is something I have only been able to do here on CGT. Also, trying to find an item that I already saw through the search is near impossible. See ourPrivacy Policyfor more information. i like the points system on cg trader .

Without checkmate Turbosquid would have gone out of business. Sketchfab.com-------------------------------. Considering it as a seller, CGtrader is NOT better because I have almost no sales at all while I have about 10 sales every month on TS. In this case a collaborative action could be established to make the product more attractive. And it is convenient for the buyer and profitable for the seller. The biggest problem with TS is that it is a pyramid scheme if you have a diamond account you have a good chance of selling models but at the low levels you have no chance. Yes, @limonadinis, I agree with you. Well, unless I can verify the quality of the model I'm not going to pay for most things. We all agree that CGT is the better site and needs to win the fight but we all need to reach out to the really influential people and make sure they start promoting the site or we won't win. Now if this individual was for real I would have loved to contact him and ask If he would like to give me that converted file in exchange for every dollar he paid for the model. So, Ts will probably have a few thousand lawsuits to issue in following months if they like. In my experience often times a client will ask for certain models but then one must take into consideration what computer specs they have because you don't want your client to get frustrated with the models you buy. Turbosquid has a bot spying cgtrader prices. Besides how about your right to fair trade? I'm afraid the end of Ts is near and nothing can stop it, maybe the best they can do is raise royalty's to 80% for all sellers, but then again if they don't change the censorship policy's they are applying right now then it will probably not be enough to stop the downfall in the long run. We at NoneCg think that both CGtrader and Sellers will benefit from the exact opposite policy. But i think CGT nows that pretty well, that's why they decided to bring changes in royalty policy and hopefully they will steer additional cash flow towards making this stock market more attractive to the buyers. We will only contact you if there's a problem with an order. I don't know whether it would be possible to implement, but it would stop those who just wanted to download as many free models as possible. If you are doing really bad with sales they let you do whatever you want but if you are doing well they step in and make things difficult. I do not know if community-policing has helped other sites keep their products better organized.

I'm about to bail on this site now - unless I can find any other topics that I might be qualified to post toapparently if I'm friendly enough I can earn some points, but it's seriously unlikely that I'll find any topics to which I can actually contribute.
