If you can see a campaign in the editor, it should be there in the campaign. Are you scrolling down the list? User campaigns are at the bottom.

Otherwise, check that the folder layout is right. Any campaign when unpacked should have the SCENARIOS folder inside the campaign name folder e.g.

My Documents/My Games/BBCBA/CAMPAIGNS/TheCampaignFolder/SCENARIOS

It might be that the editor is finding a campaign folder, but that the files inside are in another folder, or laid out incorrectly?

Cheers

Hi Pip Managed to get two of the rar files working fine cambria and ostwind the others have appeared in campaigns but as missing ids campaign and as such do not open .Is it just a case of naming them somewhere to get them moving ?

I'm going to guess it is a case of the folders being inside other folders again. Check that the layout of the files inside each campaign is the same as the ones that work.
