We're on MyMiniFactory Tribes!

It's my honor to annouce that The Printing Goes Ever On has been invited to the Beta 2.0 of Tribes on MyMiniFactory 🎉

https://www.myminifactory.com/users/the-printing-goes-ever-on 

Many of you have asked for your files to be delivered to your MMF library. By this time, I think you already know I treasure your feedback more than anything else, so I think Tribes is a great way to find the best of both worlds.

For those willing to hop on to Tribes instead of Patreon, there will be a special Voucher system, which will allow you to redeem September's bundle on Tribes for free. That's only fair as you already got your stuff for the month!

As you may see, there is a slight price difference there. As the project has grown significantly for the last year (we're now the 15th largest STL Project in the tabletop 3D printing world!), so did the amount of content delivered to you each month.

However, the $2 subscription increase is alleviated by 2 things:

Plus, the Early Bird is actually at the price of your current Ranger tier here 😉

❗ Don't worry! I am not closing Patreon or our site with your TPGEO libraries, especially that the Customizers are hosted there. MMF Tribes is a new option running in parallel as I'm trying to answer to your 3d printing needs the best I can. ❗

We're on MyMiniFactory Tribes!

Hmm, ok, I'll do that, thanks for the suggestion!

Can you make an announcement when you post the MMF model on your site? That way we can pop over and pick it up.

1. No news just yet, besides "in testing" 2. They are not exclusive per-say. They are just there sooner and the cost is the same when you sum everything up ;)

It looks like they're all there now. Any news on the voucher for switching over, I don't want to miss the MMF exclusives?

Yes of course!

No need to rush. I was just afraid I might have missed it. So it's still coming and will it be available in your shop then?

About 2 days? I'm sorry it takes so long :( I need to go through the process of adding products and I always procrastinate that (while making stuff ready for the current month of course!).

When and where will the mounted Grimhelm be available to buy for us Patrons?

I did read in the comments that you were looking at a voucher for annual subscribers. I am in no rush and get your awesome models either way so no worries.

There might be some way to get a voucher for a given number of months left on your annual sub later on, if you'd like to transfer to Tribes. However, you are welcome to wait for it to run out here of course!

Good deal. I will make my decision on which way to go when my annual subscription is up.

There will be double backup on both MMF and my site 😊

If I stay on Patreon will the files going forward transfer to MMF? I have an annual subscription so I can’t go to tribes right now any way. Just curious.

I have added them all for you... One by one, each chapter :( I have sent you the redeem emails for those chapters once again. If you don't have them by now, please contact MMF support about this. I can't do anything more to help.

I still don't see Chapter's 2, 7, and 9; I don't know if you're still in the process of doing it, or if they got missed; but seeing as the others have been there for a few hours, I figured I'd bring it to your attention.

Wow, I greatly appreciate that!

Yes, I'll manuall organize it for you so you have it all there!

I saw those, but that only covers what I got through a subscription. I purchase the entire back catalog of the Printing Goes Ever on and On. So everything before August isn't on MMF; can I get that all moved over?

Yesterday I have added all the chapters you've collected on Patreon to your MMF library. You should have received redeem emails :)

I'd like to switch, but I'm waiting on the voucher. That said, will I be able to move all of my collection to MMF; or will it be a situation where everything up to August is on one platform, and the rest is on another? Is there a way to get everything on MMF; otherwise, I feel torn. If the whole concept is ease of conveniently having everything in one place, it feels odd to have half of it on the website and half on MMF.

As mentioned before, there is no need for a switch, we're not closing Patreon as some other artists 😅 If you do want to switch to get models in your MMF library, then yes, waiting for the voucher is a good option for sure!

Thanks for clearing this up too.. living in Australia i'm on quite the different timezone. So we just wait for the vouchers.. right. then switch?

I wouldn't want to make you dissappointed in any way! Firstly - it's not a change in platforms. Please read the post to the end. The two sites will be running in parallel, and Tribes was made for people who asked over and over again about MMF integration. It's my move to make life easier for you, the awesome people supporting the project. I will surely open the Early Bird with more spots for people who wish to go there from Patreon Early Bird, once the Voucher is made. A locked post just for you will be made. The extra mini there will be in the store (I would never just make a model for it to never exist again in other places, that's not the digital product idea) for the usual unit price of around $4, so with the Patreon discount you are not going to be at a loss. It's just compensation for the pricing change, that's all. I hope this clears the problem points, and I am really sorry this post was not clear enough. If you see any other issues, please don't hesitate to let me know. I really want you to feel ok with all this and I stress again, that it's not a transition or that there are no models lost in the process.

So I am a little disappointed here. I have supported you here since the very first month without missing a single month even months that were not really to my liking and now I find out that in the middle of the night you switched platforms and raised the price to all but the first 50 and know because I was sleeping and probly wouldn't have wanted to pay double anyhow I will have to pay more on a different platform just so I can get everything. do I understand this right. And if I don't move I will miss the mounted grimhelm. as well as future exclusives. I hope you can understand why I am disappointed.

I don't wanna make them limited though. I mean, people on Tribes will benefit from the Goals we achieved on Patreon. Why should it not work both ways? Just thinking out loud, as there is time before we reach those goals there 😄 I do hope MMF delivers and gets the vouchers done. I'll of course keep you posted. I don't think they are planning that for now, the yearly subs.

Hi Maksym, I assume that the stretch goals on tribes as DnD 5e Adventure Modules and welcome trove expansion will not be available here, right? Will we be informed before the end of the month, how the vouchers will work for the yearly subscription? Is there a discounted yearly subscription at tribes? Thanks and kind regards, Alex

See you there! I'm happy this option is something you enjoy 😊

just jumping over - now !

I can't find your second comment, but to answer - the pre-supported files will be there today! I will make a post :)

Thanks for the comment! As said in the post, I'm not choosing any plaform. It's been opened as I got really lots of messages from supporters, asking for MMF integration. Thus, to cater to those needs, Tribes were opened. You are of course welcome to stay here 😊

Not happy with the new. I don't like MMF because of all the advertising and tons of mails they send. I am very happy with Patreon, also because I support other creators here. I think that at the end you will have to choose a platform.

As in the post info at the bottom, Patreon is not getting closed! Tribes is an alternative for those of you who like to have all your models in one library 😉

Wait, so can we still have our patreon support here and get our miniatures each month or do we have to transfer our support over to MMF?

Thank you so much! Feedback like yours makes it all worth it!

Great! I appreciate the effort that goes into a increasing of options like this.

Kevin Walker

Gotcha! It will probably be a voucher for the remaining number of months you have :)

What would you like to know, precisely? As said in the post, I'm not closing Patreon or anything! This is just a quality of life improvement for those of you who prefer MMF :)

Okay. I am waiting but ready to move over to MMF. I do not mind the $2 up cost, but need to see how the remaining half year of my yearly payment that is still left from a yearly sub on Patreon will be handled. Thanks.

Kevin Walker

What about merchant on patreon☺️?!
