try asking it to show hidden files and folders? that's very strange that it should be empty....

assuming it works, im sure theres at least a few topics around here that answer the question, just use the search engine

Make sure you are looking in the correct file. It could be that you are looking at the wrong one.

This will work if you have RTW 1.5. I cannot vouch for it working on any other version.

Go to: RTW\World\Maps\Campaign\Imperial_Campaign\descr_strat.txt

Make a copy of it for a backup to be on the safe side. Then open it up. You will see the beginning looks like this:

;

Change it to look like this:

However, the interface in the campaign selection screen is only made to display 20 factions, so the rebel/slaves are not shown there even if you unlock them as above. If you want to play them you have to move one of the other factions to unlockable or nonplayable. So I put the senate in nonplayable.
