I'm not a very good modder, so I thought I'd ask before I do anything stupid. How do I add a new campaign?

I have XL installed, but would like to add another campaign, and since I am, like I said, no great modder, I wonder what files I need to copy for a new campaign to appear in the New campaign menu. The campaign isn't going to be anything fancy, just for me to try some new stuff. It will be entirely based on the XL Late campaign, just with entirely different starting positions (this is why I don't want to mess up my original XL Late campaign). So, again; what files do I need to copy in order for an identical twin of the XL Late campaign to appear (so that I can tweak it according to my taste thereafter).

Oh, and the campaign needs to have its own Unit and Build_prod files.

Hi Innocentius, make a copy of the XL Late startpos file and rename it, for instance MyLate. Then open MyLate and scroll down until you find the section where the Unit and Build_pro files are defined, change their name, and copy/rename the Late Unit and Build_pro files in MTW main folder.

Tried it, and it worked perfectly. Thanks, Belisario!:2thumbsup:
