Updates to the Maker.

[9suffix]

Do we need a thread to document changes to the Maker (pricing updates, new features, etc.)?

We know the Wrap tool now has a Collabs option (Crayola and Max Kolo).

Additionally, I just noticed that my Slate Grey options for the Door Bolster Insert, Door Armrest and Dash Panels are now standard. That's a savings of $174.97.

Maybe it was a glitch to begin with and now it's fixed.

Anyway, those options are now gone from my Summary. 😄

Edit: I think it's glitching. Now Slate Grey is adding back as a cost option. It's going to take a while before this all settles down! 😆

Would be nice if Slate had some kind of changelog, but it sounds like a good idea to keep track of what we notice here.

I have kept one of my first builds in the maker unaltered with the now unavailable power window option for that thread of nostalgia and just in case it comes back.

How new is the Vezda tire option? I don't recall that the last time I looked.

Unknowingly, I was able to have a different color on the square back top compared to the other truck panels before the update. I wish they would add this option separately and not have to overpay (3rd party job) nor create spare, unused wrap.

Or offer a 2 or 3 tone option for the basic $500 + maybe 50 or 100 per added color.
I am sure they have thought of that. Likely something they will offer after they get all of this up and running.
Something released later to keep the interest alive.

This is a great idea. I think it would be popular, and maybe even encourages some buyers to get wraps who otherwise wouldn't have.

I noticed it was possible to get a full wrap and partial wraps with it in ways that were redundant and covered things that were still selected and part of the price summary. Hopefully they add a warning for that, at least.

The current config of the maker makes the wraps quite a bit more expensive if you want 2 or 3 tones in your color scheme.
It is $749.97 to have a 3 tone like I have in my profile pic. Not the end of the world but I think allowing what I mentioned above would save us some money without overly complicating things for them.
In Slate terms Simplify the multi color process.

I suppose it's worth noting that the Maker now has an option for Studio lighting (white room, whiteish tile floor).

It really changes the color of the wrap. It caught me by surprise. I thought it wasn't loading the correct color wrap at first! 😆

I'll see if I can make my change log viewable on my accessory tracker. I'll also try to add wraps back. I see they are trying to make a Key Fob & Slatelet to go with the Crayola Collab.

Added Filters for (All, New, Recently Updated, Not For Sale). I also added a Recent Changes section if you view Details. I'll try to clean it up a little bit.

Awesome!
