Reset Campaign
I've searched the forums but I cannot find if this issue has already been addressed. I'd like to replay all the Battle Academy campaigns without any scenarios being unlocked. I have completely uninstaleed and re-installed the game, but all of the scenarios are still unlocked and all of my previous achievements are visible (i.e. the little mini-objectives that are annotated by a star at the beginning of each scenario). Does anyone know how how to "reset" the campaigns and revert the game to its initial configuartion?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Reset Campaign
Usually we get the opposite question. Your game history is stored in Windows in Documents or My Documents\My Games\BBCBA\
To completely restart from new, delete that folder but you will lose all your saves, user campaigns and settings.
To just reset the campaigns, open the text file Options.txt and change Campaigns to 0 (I think or no number).

You can call me junk - and type that with one hand.

That worked perfectly. Thanks, junk(typed with one hand).
Re: Reset Campaign
I'm guessing that if I change the number to 1, say, it would have me just having completed the Desert campaign... But how do I reset the Blitzkrieg France Campaign only, say.junk2drive wrote:Usually we get the opposite question. Your game history is stored in Windows in Documents or My Documents\My Games\BBCBA\

Re: Reset Campaign
I was correct about changing the value of 'Campaigns' to 1. Interestingly, 2 unlocks the others and locks Desert... I'm guessing this is some kind of octal notation. (Hence the 255 in another forum.) What I actually want is for the game to think I haven't played the Blitzkrieg scenario before so that after each game it doesn't automatically take me to the last scenario but to the next one. How can I do this?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Reset Campaign
The campaigns value only relates to locked campaigns (e.g. when we lock people out to try and make sure they don't leap in the Bulge and get spanked because they haven't played any other missions).
To 'reset' a campaign you need to go the to My Documents folder and then into the SAVES folder. There is a DAT folder for each campaign, and deleting it will reset the campaign.
Note that (with the exception of carryover campaigns, which save in a different way) there is nothing stopping you from simply going back and forth between missions and playing whichever ones you wish.

Re: Reset Campaign
IIRC the game was changed to stop locking the campaigns etc due to popular demand. But it should automatically track progress on campaigns and take you to the next mission automatically when you go into a campaign.
