Dear All,

The beautiful Alba da Silva has changed career and has requested the removal of her content, which we'll be doing on May 2.

If you had her shows in your collection before this date of May 2, no worries, her shows will remain yours.



(just make sure you don't delete the files from your storage, you wouldn't be able to redownload them).

Enjoy your new career Alba !

wow, glad I already have all her shows, real firecracker.

Can you add a disclaimer to shows that you have removed, so that we have a warning all the time?

Is there no credit point compensation for buyers? This is unfair to us buyers!
After all, you can't download it again with a new computer!

Thanks for letting us know. I guess it's time to say goodbye and good luck!

Contact support after she's removed and describe your issue.

All the best to Alba's new career. 👍

I think it would be nice to thank Alba for sharing herself with us and wish her well

😍

Can we please have location and names of all files related to her shows? To make sure never delete and back up elsewhere.

@Tallak - if you read Celine's post at the head of this thread you will see that she has given you the images, names andnumbers of the shows.

look for :

e0981
e0982
e0983
f0343
f0344
f0345

in your vghd/models & vghd/data folders :)

Are we sure about this as I had a couple shows from another model that disappeared from my collection when that glitch happened with the upload for the trading cards. Now those shows are gone along wiht the Cat card. Not so sure on this one.

Peut-on inviter la miss au resto pour la convaincre de revoir sa position ? 😎

If you lose the files after the removing of her cards, you can ask for a refund at [email protected]
By the way, you have until the 2th of May to download them.
If you have the shows yet, make sure to do a backup of them. The shows remain yours for ever and can be played in the app when you want to watch them.

So you can make copies and say you lost the files and get a refund. It's not very clear...

Personally I would like to get refunded. I think it's a legitimate request.

@Zawan

So you can make copies and say you lost the files and get a refund. It's not very clear...

Nope, You Need RIGHTS to play the cards.
if you get a refund, then the Rights to play the card are removed from your Account.

Make as Many Backup copies as you want.
Without the Rights, you can't play them.

You NEED 3 things to be able to Play a card.
1) The RIGHTS to play it.
2) The animation files, that the rights grant you a License to play them.
3a) the aXXXX.vhdtrailers file in the Models folder
3b) the aXXXX.vhdshows file in the Models folder

If you are missing any of the 3 things above, you can not Play the card.

So as long as you never contact the Team and ask about the removed shows,
you will keep the RIGHTS to play the cards.
as long as you have a backup of the Models and Data folder for the card.
you can recover it, and play it.
You can create the Missing aXXXX.vhdshows and aXXXX.vhdtrailers files if needed.

Thanks for the explanations @Wyldanimal. What I would like is to be refund in credits. Apparently it's possible if I ask for it. This is what I will do.

Very disappointing news as she is one of my favourite models
But all the best to her in the future in her new career

Is that a problem with older contracts, or could that potentially happen to every show, even current ones?
I am not willing to backup all shows, being able to download then anytime is part of the deal for me. Could you elaborate a bit more?

Is that a problem with older contracts, or could that potentially happen to every show, even current ones?

In French law it is apparently an inalienable right for the models to be able to request that their shows are removed from the servers. Because it is an inalienable right it overrides anything to the contrary in a contract.

The first time it happened Totem challenged it in court, and lost. It seems to have been an expensive excercise.

So yes, it could happen at any time with any model's shows - even those released today.

In some cases Totem has come to an agreement with the models that those of us that had already purchased the cards can continue to download them, in some others not even that is allowed.

I've never backed up a show, I don't know how it works and I don't want to lose her cards. For me to see her shows after May 2nd, just paste the backup folders in the models folder and I will be able to see them again whenever I want?

So no redownload allowed after it?

I love you for warning me before! 💖
What files are important in Data folder, for the cards that will not be available?
Only from the folders with the cards name, like in Models folder?

Les collections de cartes sont du coup très volatiles avec cette histoire d'arrêt de diffusion qu'une danseuse peut faire valoir. Cosi fan tutte et il n'y a plus qu'à prier que les supports de stockage ne flanchent pas.

Perso je ne les compte plus 😆

The cards are in lease, we should be happy offline content will be available after bug fix end of this month. In the past I recieved some credits refund as well without question. So would advice to contact support, but now you can still play the card as well make a backup of the folder.

Thanks for the information, interesting!

Don't forget data as it contains the thumbnail
Myself not collecting but also you can think of the movies and pictures which you can download. But I never do anymore. To much cards.

As has been explained in earlier posts in this thread (and every time that it has happened previously) you can ask for a refund.

Maybe, but Totem have no choice in the matter. The law, and the court ruling against Totem, requires them to do this if the model asks for it.

After all, you can't download it again with a new computer!

As long as you have the files on the old computer there is no need to redownload cards when you get a new computer - just copy the files from the old system to the new one - or in the case of the animation files if you have them on an external drive just use that drive on both machines.

Full List of All of the Removed cards can be found in this Post.

for any Cards Removed From the Store that you don't want to loose.
Always Back up the FULL DATA folder and FULL MODELS folder for that card Number.
Keep at least 2 copies.

NEVER try to update the cards. NEVER !
NEVER try to change the resolution, NEVER !

in Fact, I Select the cards, and click on the EYE icon to move them to the Hidden Cards Group.
That way, I never Accidentally Group Select them, if I'm Updating or Changing resolution.
