Campaigns locked on the PC version?

[ivagiglie]

Hi guys, I've been playing BA for a while on the iPad and decided to buy the PC version together with two expansions (and won't rant about having to pay twice for the same game, I know it's Apple).

The game forces me to play the tutorial, which is the worst part of this great game (sorry but you know that guys!), before unlocking the first campaign.
Ok, I can do that in 2 minutes, but then the only available base campaign is the Western Desert, the others are locked!

The campaigns of the two expansions I've got are enabled (Blitzkrieg France and Market Garden) but if I want to enjoy once again Normandy or the Bulge I'm forced to play the Western Desert again.
This is even stranger if I compare to the iPad where all base campaigns are unlocked right from the start.

Please tell me I've missed something obvious... or that there's a workaround editing some magic configuration file somewhere.

Thanks!

PS this is my first post, so let me tell you I'm also lookig forward to BA2... and possibly an Android version!
that'll be a killer, there's no decent tactical WWII game whatsoever on those millions devices out there screaming to pour money in your bank accounts!

Couldn't find an answer using the forum search (I swear I tried!) but got it reading the topic "how can I do this?" which sounded a bit generic at first

Here's the trick, from Pip:

Open OPTIONS.TXT in My Documents/My Games/BBCBA. Change the value on the CAMPAIGNS line to 255 and save the file. Now run the game and all should be unlocked and wonderful

Glad you are up and running . Android is definitely on my todo list, but sadly it's a very long and painful list currently, so no ETA...

Cheers

BTW it's enough to win the first mission of western desert, not all of them.
