Problem Creating a Scenario within a Mod

Hello there


I was considering create some scenarios, maybe a mini-campaign within the Spanish Civil War. Playing this weekend for first time with the editor I have found what it seems to me a bug... but maybe I am just doing some wrong / stupid :?

When I create a scenario within a mod (i have tested this with Admiral's and Terminator's) and save the file, after loading it again the text associated (Briefings, Objetives,...) gets "corrupted" and it is replaced by placeholders (objetive_2_0, briefing_2_1,....)). The ¿funny? thing is that I don't have this problem when I create a scenario from the vanilla version of the game, just from mods. Unfortunately the vanilla is not an option for me since I need new factions for this project.

So... this make any sense for any of you, guys? Maybe is related with the new editor? Am I missing something?

Thanks for your help, guys, I would like to contribute somehow to the forum with an interesting project :)

Yep. You need to change the parameter of "unique_scenarios = false" to "true" in the mod.txt file inside your mod's base folder.
You're welcome. :)

That worked! :D

Thanks a lot, Gabe. Probably i will hit again against my own stupidity and ignorance, so you will hear from me again.

For me (7.1.4), it is impossible to load a scenario created with unique_scenarios = true (viewtopic.php?f=374&t=64188&start=40#p757172) ????

Tested on 2 computers.

Mmmmm, a couple of similar problems happens to me, although I dunno if it's exactly the same, @terminator (7.1.4 also)

- While in my mod (a modified version of admiral's one), i cannot launch any scenario or campaing. Simply no window appears when i click on the SINGLE PLAYER button, on the main screen.

- And also any scenario created from this mod doesn't appear in the SINGLE PLAYER window (when i launch the vanilla version, even if the scenario is copied in the ww2 vanilla folder). I can test that same scenario from the editor (in the mod) and except the event images, which don't load (i think that is normal?), everything works fine.


Maybe related? :|
