Editing France Campaign

[JBaptista68]

I try to edit the France campaign but it is empty. Help please.

The scenario files aren't accessible for BF and MG - this is an oversight on our part when we built the expansions, and they will be fully available in the 1.7 update that will be available when the Sealion expansion is released.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers

That is great news. I'm looking forward to Sealion so this will be a bonus!

I can now see the scenarios in the editor but when I make changes to them they will not save. Thoughts?

Yes ... the files properties are Read Only.

If you have a PC (don't know how in Mac), right click on file (in explorer) and open it's properties. Uncheck the Read Only.

This problem began when SL came out (v1.7). The files were never tagged as "Read Only" before that.

Was that the problem?

Urgh. Does this happen when you copy them by hand, or when using the ingame "copy of..." functionality?

I've tried both and neither seem to be able to save any edits.

OK - well a workaround for now is to go into My Documents/My Games/BBCBA, then right click on the CAMPAIGNS folder (assuming you are trying to edit single player campaigns) - choose Properties, then toggle the Read-Only checkbox until it is off entirely. Hit OK, and make sure to apply to all subfolders and files. Then you should be able to save your saves.

I will fix this in the next update. Thanks for letting me know!

Cheers
