Trying to make my first MOD

Hello,

Well, some improvement. I found the 1913 The Great Game scenario cgn file and data folder. I copied them and renamed them and put them in the campaign folder. However, when I go to the game, it's not listed in the options to play. Like it doesn't exist. How do I get the mod to show?

I think you need to put an underscore before the folder name for it to register as a campaign, like this: _1913 Campaign.

Plus you need to make sure there is a .cgn file with the same name (this is something you can create/edit using the editor app)

Edit: You don't need to (probably must not) put the underscore in the .cgn file name

Thank you HootsMaquire,

However, that's not it. I did it just the way you said and it's not showing. Could it be in another folder? I go Matrix Games > Strategic Command-World War I > Campaigns and all the data folders with cgn files are there.

Ah Ha!

Eureka! the files were in the wrong folder. I had to go to Documents > My Games > Strategic Command-World War I > Campaigns.

I found the answer in Balthozar's ealier post in this forum "How to add a MOD in YT."
