Custom Campaigns Not Showing Up

[Christoper J Sicari]

So I seem to be having a problem with Warcraft 3 1.30 where a couple of my custom campaigns aren't populating on the list. I know they are in the right directory in the documents folder. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything I could try. So far I have:

• Shortened all the files names to be no more then 6 characters (I heard that that could be a cause)
  
• Removed them from the directory into another folder and then put them back (I had heard a couple of people have had success with this)
  
• Deleted and redownloaded the campaigns.

At this point I am out of ideas. I had gotten all the other methods from the forum here, and was hoping someone may have something that I haven't tried yet.

Which campaigns... Are you sure those are meant to be played with 1.30 and not a newer version?

Chase the Dawn, and Beyond the Dark Portal: Orc BtDP says it recommends 1.21 and chase the dawn recommends 1.31 so that may be my issue with CtD

Try opening that in the editor's campaign editor and save it again. If that doesn't work, you might have to resave all maps with your editor version and then save the campaign file.

Ah well, that may be easier said then done. If I try to open my editor in my 1.30 directory, it fails to open, and if I try to use the live editor, it crashes when I hit save.

Managed to get up to 1.31. It really was that my version was to old.

Glad you solved it.
