Hi!

Sorry for this noob problem--- I only discovered this game recently, and I love it!

But I have so far been unsuccessful in trying to play downloaded scenarios/campaigns. I am using Patch 2.51, I patched the game with all previous patches in sequence, and I also allocated unused slot numbers to the downloaded scenarios/campaigns. They show up in the game, and I can click on them to get the initial infos, but I cannot start a battle!

Any idea what the *** I messed up, anyone? Thanks in advance!

Has this happened on a number of different sceanrios or just one or two? It's possible you just got a bad DL. One thing you can try is DL the scenario, extract it to a temp folder and then manually copy all three files to the correct location in the game folder. For Scenarios that would be WINSPMBT\Scenarios and Campaigns WINSPMBT\Campaigns. There will be three files for each sceanrio and varous numbers for campaigns. ALL the files need to be copied over. In your case what *MAY* have happened is you had highlighted the .CMT file and only copied it to the sceanrios folder. Typically sceanrios have a TXT, CMT and DAT file. That would explain why you could see it in the game but not play it

Since you have patched to 2.51 and your game works you've done all of that correctly
