[PROBLEM] Gates of Troy not detecting Spartan scenarios

As in the title. They are installed in the same "main" folder (Slitherine -> GoT/Spartan), but GoT was unable to detect the scenarios. Why might that be the case?

IIRC the games use the registry to find one another. Have you perhaps moved one or both from their original install folders?

Nope. I DID change the installation path for the Spartan (Installed Troy before that) since I assumed it should work when in the same master folder - but it didn't work in either situations (had it installed directly to Program Files before that).

Just checked, reinstalled both, Spartan first and Troy second, and got the same issue.

Try the following
+ uninstall both games
+ go to the registry (run regedit from the Windows+R box). You will need to go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/WOW6432Node/Slitherine. Delete the folder for Spartan.
+ reinstall the games
Hopefully that should put everything where it should be.
