Hey of_thisnation

How did you get your copy of the patch? I can't seem to find it.

Hmmm, how are scenarios made?  I'd a least like 1912 and 1860 scenarios

You'd have to go in and make it yourself  byreprograming a few files... At least thats what I did and now I have a scenario called "Free For All" and all the parties are on equal footing.

The problem with 1912 and 1860 is you'd have to get rid of a bunch of states... I'd just wait until they release a version that lets you do that.

Hmmm, i'm gonna try to write an 1860 scenario and just see. ..

You just might be able to... I'm thinking if you go into electoral trends and region varibles and delete all the states that were not there during those elections it could work

How do you actually rewrite the files? I can't find a way to access any of them.

Okay this is what I do go to

My computer>Whatever drive you have the game in>Program Files>President Forever>Scenarios

Then right click the 2004 scenario and paste on to your desk top then go into that file and then open the Electoral_Trends(or any files like it) with wordpad(NOTE DO NOT OPEN WITH MICROSOFT WORD ONLY WORDPAD!) then from there its kind of self explainatory.

Can you open it with notepad?

Yes it should be fine...

Also whenyour done changing the folder your scenario is in change the name of the folder to whatever you want then put it with the other scenarios.

Also you'll notice when you look at the folder all the scenarios are in theres a notepad file called "scenarios" you'll have to add the name of any new scenarios to that file follwed by a /
