Recognize campaings in their respective folders.

So i would like to see two things changed about how user made campaigns are handled by DCS. I really like user made campaigns being displayed under the proper campaign tab for each individual module instead of being located under 'My Campaigns'.

Afar, right now you need to place the individual files or campaign folder inside the individual module's campaign folder inside the main DCS installation (for instance under :\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\A-10C\Missions\Campaigns), where as usually normal missions are being handled in 'Saved Games' on your c drive. This leads to the user having to maintain two different locations for managing missions and campaings.

 

What i'd like to see:

 

DCS creates a folder for each owned module under ''Saved Games\DCS.openalpha;beta\Missions\Campaigns\'' and displays campaings stored in there NOT under 'My Campaigns', but under the proper campaign tab in DCS World's main menu. It's probably a good idea to retain a My Campaigns folder as well for stuff that doesn't fit under one single module or what have you.

Point 2 is not correct, you can put your custom Campaigns inside their own folders for better organization:

you are absolutely correct, my bad for not rechecking that. I installed a bunch of user made campaings this spring and i was incredibly sure that this did not work back then. Either i screwed up rojally back then or this was added since then. Anyway, i'd still like to be able to organize user made campaigns inside the c:drive\user\saved games\... folder and have them displayed under the proper campaign tab for each individual module and not all compounded under the 'My Campaigns' tab. I don't see how one can set this up atm in c:drive\user\saved games\. Am i missing something?

At the moment you cant do that. On my case I’ve renamed my custom Campaigns, putting the aircraft’s name at the beginning, so that the Campaign list is ordered by aircraft.

Yep, i have created per aircraft folders under saved games as well, but i use it for single missions only. But i'd like to have the campaigns under the porper tab...maybe ED is gonna make this possible in the future. Shouldn't be a big task, but it still must be asigned to a dev though.
