i know theres nothing wrong with my file being corrupted or whatever. it is the official clean install since microsoft games ror section was around.
IIRC i know it is very possible to get it working in full. i think i have seen someone do it long ago. i will try using the campaign manager to extract out the scenarios and resave as something else. i dont know about the multiplayer map though. maybe i have to add it to campaign and then extract...
but then again..i think i might of tried all that already with campaign manager and rerouting it around that way and it produced the same result. perhaps a hex editor or even plain notepad edit or something is necessary. i did remember reading about some people who had instructions on how to convert scenarios from ror trial to full version and vice versa. but i did not know how to do it nevertheless because im not exactly much of a computer geek knowing how to do all that if much of any mumbo jumbo.

I never get a message that that campaign can't be played in the full version of RoR. I can select the scenario that I want to play and click Play and then the game crashes. The only remedy that I know and that has always worked flawlessly is to download and install the patch for RoR. You can have both the original exe and the patched version in the same folder, just give them different names.

That's weird. I only have the original CDs, not the Gold edition (happy). Maybe you'll have to extract them then and open and save them in the scenario editor. I never heard of this problem when I was more active, and I've been around here for a long time.

well the editor crashes only when i try to load those ror trial original scenarios. it doesnt just simply crash. hell if it did id be pissed back then because i bought the damn cd and one of the top things im looking forward to is the scenario editor.
