If your cases are the only two, globally, of the packages that we sent out, it's about what could be expected, statistically speaking. Of course it sucks to be one of those cases, but all in all I have to defend postal companies in that they lose packages less often that most people think (some countries are worse than others, admittedly). And they would lose them even fewer times were it not for the external customs processing at borders, something over which the carriers have no control, and there are two custody handovers which occasionally fail even in the most regulated and controlled case of law enforcement, when pieces of evidence are passed around.

No fingers pointed at you! Unfortunately, the Swedish Postal Services really, really suck. They used to be one of the best in Europe, but this is the SECOND time in a few months this has happened to me. Last time they lost a base I had ordered for my son. Took them two weeks to find it, damaged.

Ok, mine is lost... No package today. I'll drop you a line later Ssnake!

I'm kind of a sucker for hit decals. A small thing all things considered, but I just kind of like having them. 😊

Contact me and Shipping (at eSim...), as soon as you have confirmation that they lost it.

Will do. I spoke to them today and they told me to wait three more days. So I'll get back to you if the package doesn't show up by Tuesday next week.

My package hit customs monday 5th, paid same day and got it deliverd friday 9th. So yeah our swedish customs are not quick...

Yeah, and now I'm really pissed off. Calling them puts me as number 135 in the queue. I think they've lost it or sent it back for some reason.

If it's any consolation, I ordered my two copies on June 27, and still no sign of them...

I would be less annoyed if it weren't for the fact that the Swedish Postal Service are really quick to demand payment, but once the fee is payed, they couldn't care less. Calling them today though. Hope yours get to you soon!

I still haven't received my package. I got the letter directing me to pay customs around two weeks ago and payed immediately. Still no package though, so tomorrow I will call the Postal Service. REALLY annoying, but obviously not your fault eSim.

4.158, yes. There were a number of issues reported, why wait fixing them.

Other issues will take longer, so there'll be an update some time in September/October, but we want to address the most annoying/easy to fix bugs and oversights as soon as possible.

Great work! Really enjoying this. 😊

Unlike the Swedish Postal Service. They rarely do great work. They were eager to prompt me for money, which they got immediately. Still no delivery though... 

I got my customs notification Friday! Payed all due fees, so now it's about to be delivered to me in Sweden. 🙂

Aha, I see.

Didn't we pay sales tax on the initial purchase?

@frankiekam My set arrived today, Friday, 02 AUG.

That's quick!

I haven't had a massive amount of play time, but from what I've played so far, it feels awesome as well.

The scenery is this old one (zip file).

I don't include the map as when published it put inside the delta of one of the default ones and is big, but it is easy to reproduce what I did:

1. open that scenery in 4.023, in scenery editor

2. save the ter and theme files from it

3. in 4.157 in map editor make terrain from ter and select the one extracted from 4.023. Just publish it and load it as single player mission.

 

 

for hornfelt is better to have the blauheim from the 4.023. If not you will have the terrain but no hourses, roads, rivers, etc...

Ahhh.... I do't have Blauheim umfortunately.

Ok Thanks for the reply!

I succesfully had the 73 mission and camp hornfelt maps running and they are great!! Impresive the abrams when fires in the desert with the dust in front of the cannon!!

I had to install again 4.023 to save the .ter files from the missions. I also saved the theme one, but I don't know what are they for, so here are the questions!

 

1. What are those themes for?

2. Once I make the map in the map editor in 4.157, and publish, where is published. Files Location? I don't find in the new maps (big data) folder that I have installed different than program data/esim games/maps

3. Could it be possible to make a tool for new SB to just extract those old .ter and theme files from old missions? That way we wouldn't need to install all the 4.023 for do that. 

 

 

Thanks!

 

 

Which map for the Camp Hornfelt missions? I can't find "Blauheim" in the map list when trying to replace the map.

EDIT
Just saw the "plain41" in the message. Tried that and it seems to work.

No problem, here in the mountains of Colorado we still get our mail by Pony Express. Still waiting, maybe today I'll get the package

Got the download and renewed the temporary license i got when I pre-ordered so I'm playing already. But looking forward to the printed manual. 

Agreed! 

I really like the new terrain. Is the AI spicier too? Got my butt handed to me just now. Looking real good so far! Looking forward to getting properly stuck in.

Well, I have about 15 minutes left until the 29th. Uninstalled the old version before heading to bed, ready to install 4.1 sometime tomorrow or whenever it arrives, my time. 😀

Well if it crosses over on the QE2, it could be, by the end of the month of August

😧 Well, I might have to meet it half-way then. 😮

Thank you @Ssnake!

Excellent news! Any ballpark estimate on how long orders will take to cross the Atlantic and reach the EU? 🙂

Glad to hear they are "ON THE WAY!". Even if I have to wait a bit for mine to arrive. 🙂
