I just downloaded some additional scenarios from this site for Normandy '44, but they do not show up in the file list when I open up the game.
Each scenario was d/l as a zip file, so I extracted the contents and placed inside the N44 folder.
My game is patched to 1.13, which I assume is the latest.
The files all show up inside the proper folder when I view it through Windows Explorer, it just seems the game itself is not recognizing them.
Any ideas?
If they aren't showing up in the game and you have the files exactly where they belong, then most likely ( the only cause I know of anyway) is that although you think you are running the game from the folder you have the scenarios in, you are actually running a second copy of the game files from a different location.
For example, on my current machine, the games were originally copied over from a different machine, without re-installing them. On the old machine, the files were in the bad program x86 area that causes problems in the later operating system. I have since installed the games, but I have shortcuts that also copied over and they point to the old games. So I can apply updates, or add new files, to the ones I want to run, but then if I run them without updating my shortcuts I am running the old version and don't see the changes/updates.
Not sure if that helps but your issue is exactly what I saw when I upgraded my PC and it confused me until I checked where my shortcuts pointed.
Actually, one other thing just struck me. If you are running from the x86 area, the newer operating systems run it as some kind of "virtual" area, which I can't really explain. But when I tried to play HTH from the game installed there, which seemed to work from the game perspective, I could never see the save game file from my opponents in the game engine even though as you say explorer showed the expected files in the expected location. So if you are running from programs x86 you probably won't see the new files because Windows seems to wall them off and uses what it feels is safe. It has been almost 2 years since I ran into this so I don't remember all the details of what Windows is doing, but you can't run the games correctly in the latest couple of Windows versions, even if it seems to run fine.

Thanks for the fix, it was exactly as you described. What's odd is I did a fresh install so there shouldn't have been two versions in different location, unless the game is set up that way. Either way, I am good to go.
Thanks again
