Super cool, I hope I can pick some of them up!

 

@boysenberry thanks! See you around then.

 

I received some emails asking me to run the sale on the asset store as well... this is a problem since the lest time I ran that people got confused about the price change... what might be possible to do is having a potential customer contact me in order to know what kind of asset he is interested in and give him a voucher of the same value for another asset he'd like to have once it's possible to verify the invoice number (purchase made in June 2015)
This is a solution for up to 6 vouchers per asset or pack. Since it's a max of 12 per asset per year and I'd be willing to run a sale for Christmas.

 

Unfortunately seem to be some errors on your store. e.g.
ANIMALS FULL PACK
price : 50% OFF!! $149.95 instead of $299.90 not the $50 you mentioned here. Seems to be all the animal packs. Did quick test on Animals packs and it did seem to have correct price at PayPal just the description is wrong.

I always find your store very awkward to use being one massive page with 100s of products and not easily known which single items are included in the multiple larger collection packs. Also seems can only buy 1 asset at a time rather than having a cart. This is why despite being very interested in some of your assets never bought one!

Why is it confusing? If you update asset description to say 50% off June sale where is any confusion. If it is sheer volume due to the masses of assets you have maybe just do the big collections you listed above on the Asset Store which guessing will be the best sellers. Also the offer to send out vouchers whilst great is potentially a huge gamble. What if I buy HEROIC FANTASY CREATURES FULL PACK volume 1 and send a request for volume 2 but you've run out of vouchers since posting?

Is it possible to add an item that offers everything on your store for say $500 (this is sale price at 50% off)? That way can just buy the 1 item and avoid fighting your store. Even if this option is then removed after the sale or left in at at normal price of $999.

 

thanks for pointing this error . Appreciate that. will be fixed soon.

Yes, it's indeed light years away from being fancy with all the bells and whistles but it's the only alternative I have to help developers with really low budget to have access to some cool deals like that twice a year....

As I said, it's needed to send me a message before you purchase anything on the asset store to know if a voucher is available for the free asset you want. will see what's possible to do with changing prices and description on the asset store....

I had once a sale like that on the asset store. People are seeing prices and icons first, not the description unfortunately. then they can see if you're lucky the small key image. It's only if they select your product that they can read the description... So people were browsing, seeing the icons or small images with an interesting price, and wen coming back to it some days later because they were not thinking it was a deal available on a certain period they were confused.

 

good news: All the major packs gathering several models are now 50 % OFF on the ASSET STORE from 06/04/2015 to 06/30/2015. All individual models will remain at normal price, sorry.

 

Updated the first post with links to the packs that are on sale on the ASSET STORE.
Cheers

 

Hmm ... the first Monster Boss and the Monster Boss Set are not available in this sale, right? Or am I overlooking them?

 

you're right it won't be available on the Asset Store sale since it's a single model. If you were looking for it on PROTOFACTOR STORE, then, indeed it's not been added yet.
Also since there are no second boss so far, the FANTASY BOSSES PACK has not been created yet. the high rez version the reaper model has been done though, but the development of the environmental packs took over. Once V1.25 of the environmental will be created ( cave entrances x3 or 4), we'll finish the reaper boss. and create the early BOSS PACK vol1

 

Sounds good. I think I already have all of the models I need from your current stock, so I'm looking forward to the new ones.

 

@hopeful : thanks for your support so far then! here is a WIP of what will be coming after being done with the 1.25 Add-On of the Environmental Packs. Reaper high rez version is not totally done, my mistake... still need some few things to be done. but it gives a good overview of what it's going to be be. Once this one would be done it will be possible to create the FANTASY BOSSES PACK vol1.


To @ll others, sale is still running on PROTOFACTOR STORE ( all at 50% OFF) and on the ASSET STORE (18 packs at 50% OFF. See links in the first post)

 

Thanks for the updates and hopefully the sale on Asset Store will help for those not reading the forum.

As considering the very large packs probably get them from your store as slightly cheaper. Definitely getting the Boss pack once it becomes available as made mistake of not getting previous creatures pack in early stages.

 

Thanks @Tortyfoo ! Hope to see you around.

Been working on the future 1.25 Add-On for the Environmental packs. the First cave entrance is now done.

 

That looks awesome. I just started designing the cave entrance to my island and becoming very inspired by what you're putting together!

 

Glad to see that my assets got you inspired. Hope they'll be of a big help in your project.

 

bump. Sale is running

 

Hi Rosor,
Your packs look great. If I buy a pack from your store do I also get access to it in the asset store?

 

Thanks for the kind words. No, sorry. If you purchase something from PROTOFACTOR STORE you'll only have access to the content on our website. So if you plan on having all your assets in one spot I would recommend to purchase from the asset store.

 

Ok no worries. I don't mean to seem cheap but I'll get it from you direct as I'm just a hobby coder that will probably never actually end up using them in anything released outside my group of friends
Just to confirm, do the packs on your store come distributed with the license terms?

 

the license terms for the models on our web site differs from Unity asset store's. We updated the Store's page so that it's obvious for potential customer to know our EULA.

 

Hi there! Sale is running. 50% OFF on all models and packs on PROTOFACTOR STORE and 18 packs (gathering multiple models) at 50 % OFF on unity Asset Store.
The Environmental packs should receive a new add-On this week, if everything is going as expected. 2 new cave entrances have been created. So 3 Cave entrances so far 1 more to go plus a generic one and the add-On will be submitted. The 1.25 version will lead to a price raise as usual. So if you're interested in this pack you should definitely go pick it up while it's on sale and not yet updated.


Cheers

 

Sale is still running.

Update to the environmental pack is almost ready. Currently on the modular cave entrances. Update should be live next week.

Cheers

 

Wouldn't it make sense to use a detail texture (or maybe just a detail normal) on those rocks? They seem to be designed for distance viewing or low resolution.

 

Been thinking about it for a while. The only thing that pulled me back was the fact that these rocks are unwrapped and are not using any tile able texture. It's possible to create a mask for sure but around the seams there won't be any details. In most cases, it should be OK if the mask is well randomly done around the seams. Will make a test, and if it looks good it will be part of the update as well.
thanks for your input.

 

definitely a huge plus to use the details textures on the biggest rocks formation. Add some nice high frequency details. this will be part of the next update to the environmental packs. Seams are barely noticeable without any mask. will see if making a mask makes sense for all of them or not.
Biggest concern is about the legacy support. Indeed, bump specular shader doesn't have any detail textures slots... Not sure if there is a free legacy shader like that on the WIKI. will try to figure something out if it's possible.

 

support for Legacy seems to be "almost" possible. Managed to create a shader with diffuse detail and normal details. However I can't get the mask to work for now. result still looks good, but having the mask to work would be a huge plus. Still working on it....

 

Hey Guys! Sale is running! 50% OFF on a lot of nice content and only 13 days left to enjoy that. (see first post to know what is on sale)

Thanks a lot for your support so far!

reminder that the environmental Packs will certainly have its upgrade ready tomorrow and have its price raised. this add-on will bring a lot of new cool content:

• 4 custom caves entrances and 12 modular prefabs variations ( 36 if you mix and match with the 3 pediment variations).
• 4 pillars models with 3 pediment variations ( a destroyed version might make it in a future update)
  
• Now all big rocks formation use detail textures to enhance visual quality.
• Fire particle with script for the fire light to make it behaves in a more realistic way.
• little script to make the illumination map change intensity and "blink" at run time
• 6 vegetation detail textures for the terrain
• 3 ground textures for the terrain

V1.25 WEB PLAYER (190 Mb // Firefox required)

Know issues: detail shader for the legacy version of the big rock formation is still in development and have some few flaws: specular is only a color and its intensity a slider. The shader's detail mask is not working right now: seams get visible...

 

Week end bump Only 3 days left before summer sale ends...
Environmental Packs has been updated to V1.26 and bring some cool new content.

 

Hi, I was about to get the environment pack, lovely work. are the caves from the demo included?
Are you planning unity5 fancy new textures in an update anytime soon?

Unfortunately for me, that is the only thing from the pack that I would be interested in using. Thanks.

 

Hello and thanks for your interest. The caves things are included and all the content has whether PBR or legacy textures.

 

question about the walls if we scale them up will they lost quality ? Big walls are perfect to block path from falling of a map, but they might be a little short for some games!

 

Not sure what exactly you're talking about here. What do you mean by walls? Can you elaborate? There are tons of elements in this pack...

 

the big rocks in the picture where we see the cave entrance, if i want to use this as natural barriers like cliffs in my terrain can i scale them up without having loss of quality ?

 

These big rock were designed to work up to a certain scale. They must be something like 8 or 10 meters high. Scaling them to make them bigger will result in a loss of quality. Since the first texture slots use non tile able textures. The loss of quality would be at 50% though since the material uses detail textures that you can tile accordingly to the scale...
hope this answers your question.

 

Less than 12 hours left! Summer sale is going to end really soon. If you didn't do it yet, now is the time to go get an awesome deal. The best things never last forever unfortunately.

Cheers

 

The detail textures on the rocks in the Environmental Pack are a great addition.

I noticed the stalagmites and stalactites lack a detail texture, but I pasted the rock_01_detail on them and it seemed to help get them to fit in with the rest of the scene.

 

thanks! looks like it's more a "hack" what you did. Will certainly create a detail texture for these as well. Wanted to push the update before getting any further. Thanks for pointing this out though. Next update will come with a fix for this.

ONLY 7 HOURS LEFT!!! and all these crazy prices will vanish into oblivion.

 

In 4 hours sale will be over...

Thanks a lot to all of you who made this sale a great success. Whish you guys the best for all of your projects.

Cheers
