Does anyone know how to add campaigns into stab instead of the regular eaw directory so they may be switched in stab? Also I can't get the palm trees and red tile bldgs to work in my mediteraenean campaign should they go in a specific file? And is there anyone out there that is using ECA online I never see anyone in the addon "the zone"

I pondered over this. You can add the campaign .dat and .str files to your Stab Common folder and then go to your Stab advanced settings,Common text box and add ,*.dat and ,*.str to the list of file extensions already there. When you switch terrains, your Campaign files will of course be copied in to your EAW directory. The campaign .dat and .str files will overwrite some ECA files and therefore you will need to reload ECA after flying your Campaign.
I must admit I have not tried the Stab route, and I wanted a quick way to delete the campaign .dat and .str files so
I made some batch files which load and unload campaigns. This involves holding your campaign files in separate subfolders within the EAW directory. These are available to download at Bilko's HQ and Airbudda's Hangar.

Download, read the Read-Me, and if you need help, Email me at the address therein. ;-)
