Captain sim sale is on

It would be very interesting to know how many C-130's they sold during this 24 hours :)

I was thinking much the same! It seems that every man and his dog has gone out and got the C-130 today - probably because the Pro Pack offers the best value for money out of all the CS products. That and the fact that everyone loves a Herk! :jump:
 
Yup, The Herc was my first buy, last night I got me the Herc, Xload and the Shuttle. Today I went back and got the 727 and 757 (all of them). Still to try some of them and fit my newly purchased 3Dlights to them.

happy camper,
Jamie
 
Once things quiet down at Captain Sim I've got to find out why my Mig-21 came thru as a Winrar file and not as an exe. I've never seen this happen before. Could it be an exe from them that's no longer useable? If that's the case, why is it still for sale?

I'll have to contact their support once all the traffic over there dies down.
 
I'm not too happy right now with CS. They ended their sale a whole hour early according to that e-mail, which I planned for, and I missed it.

There's a winrar free to use for unzipping just Google. This is one of the Fs9 only files that were originally distributed as winrar.
 
I'm not too happy either but I did purchase the C-130. It's the receipt I got from swreg charging me 65.94 euros. The ad did say 9.99 euros and I also used their online store. Have a trouble ticket open and am looking forward to getting it resolved.
 
In my opinion their servers (or server, I only saw the US server) held up well with such a stupendous offer. God knows how many people got Euro 100 packages for Euro 9.99, but leaving it late Cody...not a good idea.
Great marketing ploy but I would expect to see this as a precursor to a new release...not something already available that after 24 hours is back up to full price. Maybe that B-52???....
 
Well, Roger, I work man. I also live in the Pacific Northwest. The sale according to the e-mail ended at 1400 PST. I would have purchased it earlier if my pay check wasn't held up by the friggen' snow storm we had. Can't a man enjoy his Sunday though?
 
Well I'm very happy now! :jump:

Not only did I get the Herc Pro pack and finally got an excellent C130H-30 Dutch model which was something I wanted for years, but I also got the 757 Pro pack which is quite impressive to say the least. 150 euro's worth of aircraft for only 20 euro's. :d

Tough about the paycheck (isn't that stuff all electronic these days?). I decided to get in on the sale reasonably early so I stayed up until 1.00 am to start the purchase and finally got my link about 3.00 am. Worth the wait though.
 
All set Roger. I used 7-Zipfree instead as the winrar download had adaware in it that I didn't want to mess with. I've now got a Mig-21 I can install.
Thanks.

It's now 2130hrs and the sale has been over for 9 or 10 hrs.

I'm still waiting .... I've sent 2 emails to see what's happening.

Just as well I'm patient :icon_lol:

Pete.
 
It sure is photogenic! I got the base package becuase I thought I'd never use all the models in the Pro pack!

What a Christmas. I was allowed to purchase multiple presents, and my tally rests at:

RealAir SF.260
AlphaSim CH-46 Sea Knight
Carenado Cessna 182RG
Carenado Cessna 152
Captain Sim C-130

The C-130 was $204 AUD before the sale, it came down to a mere $20 AUD.

For all you CL-130 pilots out there, try it out at Kenmore Air Harbour (ICAO W55). Close shave. :redf:

Same here its been 34hours since they took my paypal payment,ive tested my mail server with there link...no problem...filled out the support form over 20 or so hours a go and still no contact.......still no C-130 pro pack

funny that some ppl who complained have reported that they got a reply and download link within the hour,seem like they must have lost a batch of purchase info,i made my purchase at 02:00 GMT 29/12/08

for £10 i can be patient but if this is how they treat full paying customers well i can only say they deserve the bad press they get

Do you think perhaps that they may be overloaded right now and trying their hardest to deal with problems? As it seems some have had replies straight away, it would seem to me that they are working through the problems.
