Greeny ... I suggest the Bakers are really under the pump at present.
 
1. SSO / Account Migration issues
2. New Store
3. New Release / Pricing Model / Development Model
4. NAMM
5. Getting Steam Release going
 
I can imagine it would've all but 'mandatory' to those in Gibson Towers to have the core release in place for NAMM / announcements.
 
I've still not attempted the install nor PMed, nor raised a Support Call. I really want to map things out first. I'm likely gonna do downloads and 'custom' installs rather than the automated Command Center install. I may not even be able to do it this month.
 
I'm gonna hope/trust we'll be looked after ... but am not gonna start rattling baking trays just yet. (But then I don't have the immediate need).
 
Yes, I would typically expect clear progress in 3 weeks ... I'd expect it in 2. I'm also keen to maintain the accessibility and goodwill of Andrew R, Seth K, et al.

As I have the week after next off I intend to drill down and see what is working and what is not. I suspect some can be corrected by just moving stuff around but just in case will take a drive image before I start. First thing is to see if I can load a small project on platinum without the load of errors I had last time.

Yup, dont wanna cause a big ruckus myself and I know they are busy, but we did pay for this stuff and we cant use it....
 
I can't imagine sorting out what seems to be a handful of cases would be a monumental task, the progress I have gotten in 3 weeks is 1 private message.

Yoonik suggests it's working for him.
 
That does no negate the issue of the products not being in our Cakewalk Registered Products and able to be natively installed.
 
PS: I hear ya Greeny ... and I will be affected.

I tired moving stuff around myself yesterday with no luck, the non steam install doesn't seem to see any of the stuff I moved from steam X3 even though its all in the right place etc.

I shall tinker some more, I didn't allow x3 to fully install from steam just took the files I needed from the download directory in steam since when I initially tried to install platinum over x3pe on steam platinum would not start, I reinstalled all my gear (a huge job!) and dont really wanna risk everything messing up and having to do it again. Time for an image methinks.

Hmm seems that there was some issue that nothing was installed/registered from steam when I tried yesterday, after a bit of file moving I have my CA-2A, my PC modules and the MP3 activator working right in platinum, job done! Now if I had a clue which fiiles to move around for the mp3 activator I could remove x3 and I THINK everythign should continue to work...

Well sound center doesn't seem to work at all and if I load a project with it in I get loads of errors saying it cant find files e.g. org-alloutslw.sfx yet the folder is in the vst list and can be found at D:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\Common\Cakewalk\Vstplugins\Cakewalk Sound Center\Modules\Multisamples\Rapture\Sound Center Classic B-3\org-AllOutSlwVbS.sfz
It recognises the expansion packs but immediately throws out an error for a missing sfx file if one tries to load it

Okay moving Sound Center Classic B-3 folder to C: drive where platinum was installed appears to have got rid of the load errors on the sfx files. Still have an error about perfect space "VST plug-in clsd can not be matched and for some reason can't get any sound out of Sound Center, but some progress at least
