Bonus Levels still available to download from Sandlot Connect

I'd never bothered with Sandlot connect so I figured my chance to buy the bonus levels had come and gone, but not so. I spent ages on the net trying to figure out where to get them- and found that it was impossible unless I used the in-game downloader.

Just today I downloaded the Sandlot Connect from the Sandlot website and then in-game was able to purchase all 3 of the bonus levels. It took ages to connect at first but found that if I completely exited the game and then came back to the download screen the option to buy page would come up. Just to see if it'd work I clicked buy, logged in and successfully purchased/downloaded all 3. If you're gonna try it though, don't click on the site buttons on the left (home, shopping cart, etc) they take you to a 'can't find this page' message.

So if you thought you missed your chance try it out- it worked for me and I'm very happy Can't believe it took me this long to get them!

Wow, thank you for the information! I had the bonus packs on my old account, but I wanted to download them on my new one. Now looks like I can!

The PayPal order doesn't work though. Any idea why? I don't have a credit card.

Hmm I'm not sure why, either. I know that Sandlot did have a problem with Paypal orders going through way back but it was fixed. I think you can get in touch with support, though, and get your bonus packs back since you did purchase them and all.

I have lost both the e-mail and password of my old account. I don't think they can help.

Well, it couldn't hurt to try to contact support anyway. Maybe your user name might be good enough? It'll be harder to track down the order but they can try.

And I suppose that if you do want to purchase the packs again, you can contact support for help with that, too.

Right, it's been a long time since the last post in here. Since Digital Chocolate fired the Sandlot employees, support for all games bought by Sandlot's website has been shut down, and you can't even activate them. I guess this means that the Cake Mania 3 bonus packs have been gone too.

I'm wondering, does anyone still have the Cake Mania 3 bonus packs on their computer? If so, they can upload them, and anybody who's paid for them in the past can play them again. I've just finished Cake Mania 3 again and I want to play the bonus packs again.

Let's boycott Digital Chocolate! I only visited their sites once anyways, just out of curiosity. I didn't see anything that interested me, so I never went back.

I downloaded the one Bonus Level Pack that was offered for free ages ago and managed to find its data on an old computer. After some experimentation, I figured out how to manually move it to a new computer, so I decided to upload it here: https://www.mediafire.com/?n16vkk5tj5l7683

(Note: In the unlikely event that you have one or both of the paid packs on your current PC, absolutely do not follow the instructions below for the time being. I can't guarantee that this won't lock you out of your own pack(s), and we cannot risk causing them to become lost forever.)

You need locate a certain directory for Cake Mania 3's save data. On my PC, it's located at "C:\ProgramData\Sandlot Games\In Game\Cake Mania 3". Extract the files there.

Of course, this still leaves us with two other packs that I unfortunately never had. If anyone reading this still has access to them, I'd really appreciate if you could upload the content of your "\Sandlot Games\In Game\Cake Mania 3" directory. Assuming there aren't any additional security mechanisms involved with these two packs, doing so should allow anyone to play them, ensuring that they won't be lost.
