Olympus Mons 2018 - PING Jack Tomalin
Hello Jack Tomalin! I'm McGrandpa. When I showed up on DAZ's doorstep, I was as helpless 3D wise as a foundling baby! It took me a couple of years of bumbling around, stumbling all over everything and having a ball of a time doing it. I recall some prop sets that were being used in the early to mid 2000's (I joined DAZ in 2004), and learned too late that some of those fine looking props were being retired. Your Olympus Mons base set is the one I didn't get that I always wished I had. I have some 200 of your items and some add on texture sets. And I have the OM Hangar, of course. Sure wish I had the other part! So, my suggestion/request here is just me chiming in with dozens of others clamoring for a remake or update or even simply a flat out re-release of the OM set! I would sure enjoy being able to use it, or something very like it from you. And get to do it in my lifetime too!
Yeah it took me a while to get all the file types, their locations and the more useful management and housekeeping of the good ol Poser *RUNTIME* ! But I DID! Had lots of help getting here today. HUGE thanks to Gypsyangel for her patient and very useful tutoring circa 2006. Yes it took me that long to see what skinning (texturing) for Figures and Props was/is. Well by then, OM had disappeared from the store quite a while earlier.
SO. There we are. You get it back up in the store, or a fixed up version of it, and I won't wait for !SALE! pricing. I will happily buy it at full price, and be so glad to pay it, Jack. Honest. And I figure many others would do likewise. See, your work is worth the price. Time has told this tale over and over again. Among the hundreds of great artists contributing, there are a handful of people who really have elevated our little segment of the 3D industry. Just a handful. And you are one of those people. Thank you for all your work, Jack Tomalin! I have been enjoying it for years, and want to for many more yet to come!
