Check you have the text exactly as Phil listed it - a type would stop it working.

Mine has

NOZOOMLIMIT 1

ALLOWMPHOTSEAT 1

Did you spell it correctly with all caps? Is the MP between ALLOW and HOTSEAT?
In case you missed this on page one.

My tweeks has no zoom and hotseat at 0

Open tweeks with notepad, change it back to 1 if you haven't done that and save. Make sure there are two spaces between the comma and the zero

Open USER.TXT and erase whatever you have there. Then type in ALLOWMPHOTSEAT 1 and save.

Start the game and see if that works.

junk.. just before i test it again, i'm just checking, should i have 2 bbcba folders,.. i've got one in 'my games ' (in my documents), and 1 outside of my games folder within 'my documents' still. the outside one has auto docs and saves in it, but the inside one has auto docs (but different contents)campaigns, multiplayer, saves and screens and a seperate 'slithrine' folder too... just checking this is normal..i'll test it now

You should only have one. For Windows XP it is

My Documents\My Games\BBCBA\ then inside that is Campaigns Multiplayer Autodocs Saves etc and the text files.

If you have a folder outside of My Games then I imagine you were on the Beta? We did move the folder. The game will only look at the My Docs\My Games\BBCBA folder

Cheers

I can click on it and the arrow turns yellow. I wouldn't copy things over. Wait for Pip.

What operating system do you have? Vista does some strange things. Maybe it created that other folder.

Did you fix the text files in the correct folder?
