Could you mention the scenarios you are trying to load (their exact names). You don't have to list all of them. But if you are loading the ones in the "Scenarios" path (not "My Scenarios"), which would be the ones included in the install, then they will all work. So, in that case, did you install the big map installer?

These two warning messages suggest that the map download manager was not installed correctly (or that there are other reasons blocking its use... not, I believe, that this would really help you in this case, I'm just mentioning it to draw your attention to other issues also going on.

ERROR: [LOCAL] Unable to locate specified map ('Hannover-Weserbergland')!
ERROR: [LOCAL] Could not locate tilemap 'blank.ter'!

Now, specifically "blank.ter" and "Hannover-Weserbergland.ter" have definitely been converted by us, and are part of the map installer. If such an error message occurs I think it's definitely time to consider if something went wrong with the installation itself. Like, you installed Steel Beasts first, and then installed the map packages afterwards - but entered a different file path (don't do that).

Wolfseven · August 5, 2019

I didn't change anything the map installer placed the maps here;

Game is here

Its funny the ATGm tutorial works out of the gate, the sinai works out of the gate but the rest will not.

user folder

I have installed 3 times whipped clean, could it be that I don't install the game in the C:\\program files\esims game, but place it outside program files as you see up at number 2.

ok so if I go into the missions senario folders, play from there they work sngl/and multi/ and scenarios, just won't work from the title list in the UI.

here is a crash dump I got.

SBProPE64cm.exe.16008.zip

TankHunter · August 5, 2019

So you went into "Offline Session" and the scenarios when you go there fail to work? If so, at the top of that page, where does the "Look In" point to? Does it point to "My Scenarios / "?

yes the paths are correct.

Volcano · August 5, 2019

If all else fails, try uninstalling and reinstalling again. SB first, then maps second, making sure to have the map package path the same in both installs.

where should the map package be installing? When I run the installer, is the tree correct that I posted?

Wolfseven · August 6, 2019

These are the areas some of the maps working from, and not working from. I pick 73 easting in single it wont work, but if I pick from here it works?

The default path for maps is:

C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts\maps\packages

(at least for Windows 7)

Do you have any folders in that path? If so, what do you have?

Windows 10 1903 latest update. this is what in there.

posted earlier, this is where it installed the maps

Edited August 7, 2019 by Wolfseven

thewood · August 7, 2019

That looks completely screwed up. I did default and its programdata > eSims Games > Steel Beasts > maps > packages > and then the folder names for the map packages. Windows 10. Your map folders are several folder levels up from where they should be.

Jartsev · August 7, 2019

So...

1) Go to C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts\maps and create Packages folder there

2) Move all maps, e.g. all folders EXCEPT: Callsign Templates, Unit Templates, displayoptions, and, obviously maps, scenarios and operations from C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts to C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts\maps\Packages.

3) Start SB Pro PE v.4.1 as administrator, select Options and then File Paths and set a new file path for the packages folder e.g. C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts\maps\Packages by clicking 'Map package folder' and selecting appropriate path in dialog which will open.

Is eSim Games going to provide a patch to fix all this map BS.? Because the majority of the scenarios i have downloded in the past don't work, and i'm not interested in downloading individual files and putting them somewhere...

Ssnake · August 7, 2019

I'm not sure if I follow your characterization of all this being bullshit.

But Yes, there will be something to fix it.

Hatchet Jack · August 7, 2019

Thank You.

Thank You.

The scenarios downloaded in the past may have other maps of modified maps as a basis.

This may entirely be usermade content. Not much that esim can do in that case...so it might need at least some effort by your side to match up the map with the scenario of interesst. Hope that is not asked too much from you.

Hatchet Jack · August 7, 2019

Will find out when the patch drops. And if i really want to get those missions running i had better a) Learn to live without them. b) Start looking for a Youtube tutorial on "how to".

At the end of the day there is still an amazing amount of content in this sim.

what about these folders? are they correct I don't think so.

Wolfseven · August 8, 2019

well that didn't work, now what? I have no main menu any longer. I point to the path and the game crashes. crash log.

SBProPE64cm.exe.4040.zip

Edited August 8, 2019 by Wolfseven

Wolfseven · August 8, 2019

This is all I get when the game starts now,

Wolfseven · August 8, 2019

ok, fixed the display issue, to point to the map packages , you only have to go to maps.

now none of the missions or maps will run.

now all maps ask for UID?

all these maps in here ask for UID now.

Instant action no longer working, nor training.. so frustrating......nor the individual equipment... i.e. M1A1, M1A2...ect..

should the terrain, height, themes be in packages?

Edited August 8, 2019 by Wolfseven

Wolfseven · August 8, 2019

I give up...tried every senario to put the folders right and for some reason this installation map pathing default when installing isn't doing it right.

Instead of step 3 try uninstalling and reinstalling Steel Beasts, that may work.

I had to:

1. manually create C:\ProgramData\eSim Games\Steel Beasts\maps\Packages

2. install the maps to that directory.

3. Uninstall and reinstall Steel Beasts

Nothing else worked for me
