tripleoption Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I've downloaded a couple of the scenarios for CMA from the repository. I put them in the scenarios folder, but when I go to the main menu and click on battles they're not showing up. I'm just wondering if what I need to do to get them to show up on the list of battles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burroughs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Did you unpack them? You need a .btt extension files in there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripleoption Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Yeah, I did. They're in the directory as .btt files, but they're not showing up when I run the game. I ran winzip and had them unzip them into the scenario folder, and I've tried putting the zip file into the scenario folder and directly unzipping them there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burroughs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Odd, I have never had any of such difficulties myself. What's your game version and where did you buy that? If I may ask. Can you open the scenario file in the editor? Is it available in the editor scenario at all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripleoption Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 I just bought it off of the battlefront website about a week ago, so whatever version it is that's what I have. I can open the scenario file in the editor, and it is available in the scenario editor. I have tried looking at them through the scenario editor but when I click on them there is no information about them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burroughs Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 The only thing which comes to my mind then is the issue I had with CMSF at some point: the scenario files were loaded as default into a different language folder instead of the one which was to be used with the English version. I bought a Paradox disc version here in Poland and a disc version of CMA, too - actually those two are the only ones I had in hard copies ( had to rebuy a digital version of CMSF from BF again this year: i couldn't get the Paradox version to run without any glitches anymore ... ). Nevertheless - check manually if the file is physically - er ... digitally I guess is the better word - in the correct root location - if you use English version this has to be English / Game Files / Scenarios or something like that in your main game directory. That's all I can come up with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Sorry to nerco an old post but I had the exact same problem, the solution for me was to apply the 1.02 &1.03 patches. In my eagerness to play the damn thing I forgot to patch the base game. Hopefully this helps someone else new to CM:A. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Burroughs, thank you for saving my sanity. Spent ages trying to figure it out, including searching tech support. This needs a bump!

Sgt.Squarehead Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Aaaaarrrrggghh! It's just occurred to me that this may be why my old scenario files didn't work.....I've gone and deleted the bloody things since too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burroughs Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 That's all good, no? ... At least we happen to know what's going on and what has gone wrong? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 In my CMA folder I only have "Taking It To The People (v5)". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
