Anyone else disappointed with the new CD3+ catalog?

When the CC3+ upgrade came out with the new Mike Schley style, I was in heaven, but eagerly anticipating the CD3 upgrade to match it. In all honesty, the symbol catalogue that came with CD3+ is not anything like I expected. It seems very crudely drawn. I was seriously hoping for something to match the beautiful world map styles!
Is there an MS style catalog coming for CD3, or am I stuck?

    They still have to make Symbol Sets 1, 2, and 3 work with CC3+. Along with all of the symbols sets for years worth of the Annuals.

    After installing it, I could only get the DD3+ symbols to show up. Going to try to un-install and re-install to see if that fixes it :(

    I have the following, after I installed CD3 for CC3+:

    CC3Plus -> Symbols -> Cities -> CC3 with 2 symbol sets

    CC3Plus -> Symbols -> Cities -> CD3 with

    Bitmap A, 6 fsc files.
    Bitmap B, 14 fsc files.
    Vector Classic, 23 fsc files.
    Vector Shaded, 23 fsc files.
    House Styles, 43 fsc files.

    Sorry, this is just a technical update so that CD3 works with CC3+ - there is no new artwork (that's why it's free). We'll be thinking about a CD3+ version that includes Mike Schley city artwork for sure!

    When I loaded it up in CC3+ however, it wasn't even showing the same symbol sets from CD3 used with CC3. They were completely different symbol sets.

    It probably loaded up one of the old CD2 catalogs at startup then. Just use the Symbol toolbar buttons to access the CD3 style catalogs, the first one is Bitmap style A, the second one is style B, the rest of the buttons load the old CD2 style catalogs. The CD3 for CC3+ update contains all the artwork from the original CD3 product.

    That's what should happen, but on my machine these buttons only open the "Select Catalog Setting" Dialogbox, which in turn shows only DD3 catalogs.
