Thanks for the help getting custom campaigns available in AoE2:DE. That leaves my other problem - getting custom campaigns available in AoC. It's a new install off DVD on a new Win10 laptop, AoK first, then AoC, then Patch 1.4 so AoC will at least run in Win10. It runs ok (off the external DVD) with standard levels. I put all the custom campaigns as rms files in the "random" folder, where they've always worked. When i start a single-player game, the "Custom Campaign" button is greyed-out, but if i start a Multiplayer game, the "Custom Campaign" button is active and all my custom campaigns appear available.
I'm trying to think like a game coder: why would i need custom campaign availability to be different depending on multiplayer vs single player? What's the point?
And... why is this a new problem now? I've never seen this symptom in 15 years or more. Why now?
Any ideas greatly appreciated - i'm stumped, and can't play AoC :-(
