Dear MakerWorld Users,

We are thrilled to announce the launch of MakerWorld China on June 182024! Our new Chinese site will be located at makerworld.com.cn.

MakerWorld China will enable Chinese users to access models more quicklyfacilitate one-step printingand offer easier navigationwhile also providing a localized interface.

As part of this exciting expansionwe will be syncing your eligible models and Print Profiles from MakerWorld Global to MakerWorld China. This means that your creations will also be available to our vast Chinese audiencesignificantly increasing their exposure and potential to earn rewards.

I can only assume its what names / tags you use on makerworld display and user names in your settingsfor a more direct confirmation you would need to ask @MakerWorld

We shall be known as “原錐”

Honestlythis is pretty darn awesome!

Yeah. I’m kind of excited about it. I like new markets! I just wish I had some well translated descriptions for my stuff.

HiSorry for the confusing wording in our statement. In this caseyour “public” name is indeed your Display(in your wordspublished) name on MakerWorld. We apologize for the confusionand let us know if you have any further questionsthanks!

This is wonderful news. Is Makerworld going to implement some level of automatic translation too? Currently I have to go to google translate to read and respond to comments in other languages.

This is exciting! I’m assuming that they will automatically translate our content or plan on adding additional translation features within MW.

lol

I’m assuming it’s because…

I bet they are beta testing right now and so only those individuals can access the site.

So my guess is that the content from MakerWorld China will also be available to us in the Global site. If soI’m very interested in what they are designing and printing over there.

I picture models with a non-commercial license to start popping up for sale on Amazon…

The following is from the announcement.

Control Your Syncing

We respect your right to control how your creations are shared. You can easily manage the scope of model syncing to MakerWorld China from your account settings. Steps:

1. Click your profile picture in the top right corner to go to “Account Settings.”
2. Select the “Account Information” tab.
3. Under “Sync Content with MakerWorld China” settingchoose your preferred option:

• Sync all models: All public models (including Standard Digital File License models) will be synced to MakerWorld China.
• Sync only CC license models: Only models with CC licenses will be synced to MakerWorld China.
• Do not sync any models: No models will be synced to MakerWorld China.

By defaultall models will be synchronized if you don’t adjust the sync settings in your account.

Interesting and different thingsI’d say. There’s at least some selection on Makerworld alreadyfrom Chinese designers. They bubble up in my feedand I like to check them out and follow the bread crumbs to other designs.

I’ve been seeing Chinese 3D models popping up for a while nowI think it has to do with the beta testing of the new platform.
My question is: could we add the Chinese translation of the description or will there be an automatic translation?

@MakerWorld Can we have an estimated number of the 3D printing users in China?

And comparison to the number of users on the main site

I made a feature request a while ago for a summary page showing number of usersnew usersmodel uploadsdownloadsprintsetcby regioncountry. This page can be updated at an interval that’s feasible for MWsuch as once a month. Haven’t heard feedback on that request.

So i’m just curiouswhat did Chinese bambu users have access to before? Is there a separate maker world site just for that region that we can’t access?

I think it’s the same one that we are using. It’s just slow according to some users’ comment. Obviously it’s not localized and navigation isn’t the most friendly to Chinese users.

Hey everyonewe appreciate all the enthusiasm and support for our MakerWorld China site! We’re just as thrilled as you are to start this amazing journey with our expanding community of Chinese makers. Let’s dive into some of your questions in this post.

1. You will have access to our Chinese site starting on 6/18.
2. Certainlywe intend to offer translation services for your model descriptionsuploadsand the comment section. This will create a smooth connection for you to interact with our Chinese users.
3. We believe that Chinese designers contributes a unique collection of models that will enrich the diversity of our current community. By bridging this gap with MakerWorld Chinawe hope to inspire the creation of more remarkable models through the dynamic collaboration and mixture of designers worldwide.

Let us know if you have any other questions! Thanks
