Help
when i get on Ares and select new game, all the options except the cancel one are greyed out. Chapter 13 is selcted as the chapter ( which was what i am on ), but the next and previous commands dont work and it wont let me begin mission. Will someone please tell me how to fix this ? I cant play until someone does ( obviously ) and i really want to play.

As far as I know, there is no way to fix this. Instead of clicking on Ares when you want to play the default scenario files, select 'scenarios' from Ares Data, and drag into the Ares icon like you would a plugin.

This meens that your Prefences are messed up, so you need to trash them and start over.

Usually this means you've been switching between versions 1.2 and 1.1.1 (or at least when 1.2 was in beta) and it would screw up your preferences. I'd trash them and start over, and only use 1 version or copy of Ares.

Yeah, that happened to me too. What I did at the time was I made an unaltered plugin using factory data and just played that. Made little difference.
