hello, can someone help me? i'm using a mac.
i created a custom scenario. when i go into campaigns i can see it.
i select it..and i get a blank screen. i mean the screen has the background image but nothing selectable. all arrows greyed out.
i can only go back.

when i open package contents on the application..i can find the campaigns folder but its devoid of my created missinon.
i can however, see all the other missions.
what the heck am i doing wrong?

any pointers would be appreciated.
i bought this game for pc mac and ipad. phew. is there a stock option somewhere? :)

The saved missions don't go into the package - they all go into the CAMPAIGNS folder in ~/Documents/My Games/BBCBA. You should see a folder with your campaign name, and then inside that a SCENARIOS folder containing your mission. Is it possible that the mission didn't save properly?

Cheers

The game doesn't create a BSF file automatically - not all scenarios need one. The map file is a BAM file.

Can you try adding the filename of the scenario to the CAMPAIGN.TXT file, the following way:

[theName]

and see if that changes anything - it shouldn't be necessary but just trying to work out what the issue might be. Are there any strange characters or spaces in the scenario name?

Cheers

i did what you suggested it it seemed to work.
a note on that though is you have to then add names for all the scenarios in that campaign folder you want.
if you dont then only the named ones in the txt file will show up in the game.
