:rotfl:
hey guys, i can see activity on this fora is zilch...

but i am working on a campaign based on a book i am writing, being 17, i haven't got much done, but it will be an interesting book.

and an interesting campaign...unfortunately, when i am supposed to click "campaign mission" when i select my square, that, and all of the other campaign options aren't there...

help?

Well, I hope that the clarity of writing in your proposed book is superior to that in the above post. Please explain your difficulty clearly, then we may be able to assist you.

I think you are talking about the "Mission Editor"....?

Sledgehammer427 · 10-19-08, 02:55 PM

yes, it will be clearer...

okay, in the mission editor, when you right-click the square where your mission will take place, it has, i suppose 2 boxes. where you can tick "campaign mission"
and "single mission"
"campaign mission" is missing.
as well as some of the other things that are involved in making a campaign...i cant remember them, because i have been modding sh4 for the last few days.

That seems odd that they are missing. What I would do is re-install the game and download the latest revision of it and see if that fixes the problem.

Indeed in Sub Command there is no box to make a campaign in the mission editor. That function only exists in Dangerous Water's editor. HOWEVER, you can still make a campaign in Sub Command, just it's a little more complicated. Here's a link to a tutorial on how to do it from www.subguru.com:

Also, check out that site. There's a LOT of interesting tutorials and missions there that you can study and learn how to really spruce up your missions.

Actually the SC mission editor DOES have a 'create campaign mission' function, so the above advie about re-installing is probably the best way to go.

Blacklight · 10-21-08, 12:01 PM

My version doesn't have the "Create Campaign" option in it at all, at least not that I can find and it's the same on my laptop and desktop. I'm using the one with the Naval Combat Pack. Maybe there's a difference ? I reinstalled and still no option.

clive bradbury · 10-21-08, 04:39 PM

That is probably it, Blacklight, I have the original version. This may be the original poster's situation, too.

The instructions in the file I posted above show you how to create campaign files to use and how to access them.
