Scenario/Campaign installs

exercion · 05-13-18, 05:40 PM

I just did an install of DW on a new system running Win 7, 64bit. I have downloaded scenarios and campaigns like I have done in the past, unzipping to the scenario folder. The files are in there, I can see them all, but DW does *not* see them when I play the game. I have no idea why.

Thoughts?

For starters, what kind of an install are you talking about? Steam, the Amazon direct download, or from an old CD?

If you used an older version for your install, did you also install the 1.04 patch?

Does what you have installed now work? Can you run the game and all of the playable platforms?

What else have you installed? Are you running the LWAMI or RA mods?

What happens if you go into the Mission Editor and load one of the new scenarios? If it loads, look for error messages or try just saving the scenario and see if it works.

Think about what you've done so far.

Installed from the CD.
Patched to v1.04.
No other mods.
Yes, the game runs, with the original included scenarios, but none of the ones added show up as choices to play, neither individual scenarios, nor the RSR campaign.

Maybe you unpacked new scenarios with folder? In SCENARIO should be only files (without any folders)

No, not in folders. I have done this before with no problems, not sure what is happening now.

Go to mission editor, make simple scenario and name it "TEST-DW.mu". Try to open scenario in single mission.
Then go to windows and search location of "TEST-DW.mu"
