Papercraft Buzz Lightyear

Sorry Guys, maybe I'm just to stupid to use 4shared right.

I'm not really sure what to click on that page.
If I want to download all the files it says I have to be a premium user.
And if I click on some of the download signs, it starts the download of an "exe" file. That seems not really right to me.

Could you please help me with that and give me a manual for dummies?
Thank you very much!

Carsten

No one?

I'd help if I could but I puzzled over it until my account was closed for "inactivity".

I'll go play with it again and see if I can write something to walk you through it.

Unfortunately, I clicked on the option to 'sign in with Facebook' so I get accepted as a subscriber now, so I won't see the sign up nudge screen that you are seeing.

Honest guys, opting to sign in using Facebook has worked for me, without seeing anything untoward come up on Facebook.

Mind you, I don't doubt y'all come back at me now sayin' you don't dare use Facebook either. This I can understand, but I've got teenage granddaughters ... How else am I gonna socialise with them?

There are other sign up options though. Try using Google+. Think of all that free cloudspace going to waste if'n you ain't signed up fer that.

OK, here we go ...

Click here ... Elso Craft Museo: Buzz Terminado / Buzz Finish to go to Buzz thread.
Scroll right down to find download button and L.click it.

On 4shared screen IGNORE ALL THE BLUE BUTTONS!
Look midscreen for the line of grey buttons ... L.click the grey download button.

Kill (x) the popup

On shared screen ... again IGNORE ALL THE BLUE BUTTONS!
Centre screen should be a Grey 'Free Download' button which give an estimated download time (it tells porkies). L.Click on that.

A pop up screen will ask you to sign in using a Facebook, Twitter,Google+, or Instagram account ... OR ... sign up with email. I chose Facebook, but any of them should work.

Using Facebook, I get a blank facebook page come up as it signs in, but I can see it's still loading in so I twiddle me thumbs fer a bit. Did tell yer I'm on a slow rural BB puipe, didn't I?

Eventually I get a Win Explorer screen pop up which gives me options as to where I want to put the DL. I always opt for Desktop. Then click 'SAVE'

Look at bottom left of browser screen (I'm using Chrome Browser) it should show DL happening and indicate a guestimate time.

In my case 'Buzz' is showing 2 hours. I'll leave it running this time, so if you still can't get it PM me your email address and I'll send it through. It will have to be tonight though as I'm in hospital all day tomorrow, and don't know if they'll be keeping me in.

I now have the BUZZ.rar file on me desktop, and I've unzipped it OK.

Cor! You sure you wanna do this one? There's a lotta files in there. I hope you weren't expecting to use just one pdo file. There's one for every section of the model. And I strongly suspect you may need to keep a Spanish dictionary handy too.

[Basketsstar]

Thanks Johnny!!! Now I got it! ;-)

I just have one more question.
How can I print it with the colors with Pepakura Designer?
If I go to the print settings and choose Bitmap print, it doesent print something else than the numbers.
And if I use vector print it just prints the lines without color.
So what I'm doing wrong?

The PDF works, but I would like to change the size of it, so I need to work with the designer.

Thanks again!

[Basketsstar]

Now I see it tells me "read only" if I want to open it with the designer instead of the viewer... :-(
Or does anyone have the passwort?

[JohnM]

I'm not clever enough to understand 'Designer'. I've not played with it much. I only tend to use 'Reader' I print to 'cute PDF' to change the sheets into .pdf files first, then pull them into 'The Gimp' to do any editing.

In the downloaded .rar file, in amongst the eighteen .pdo files you should see two more .rar files (one seems to contain a half size Buzz, not sure what the other one is?) And in amongst all this should be a 'Leer - read.txt' file ... this contains the password.

Best of luck with this ... Way too big for me. I ain't going there, but I will archive it should anyone else want it later.
