The above is the goal (see special note about ShockForce and Afghanistan below*). This is a new project and while some people have looked it over and helped me fix mistakes I expect there are more to find. My request is that if you find a mistake please let me know - post here or send me a PM. You will notice that there are still quite a few scenarios missing the author's name - one thing I have not done is open those scenarios and read the briefing I hope to get there eventually. If you find your scenario listed but I have the credit wrong or credit is missing - contact me. If you find a scenario that is the wrong version - contact where your file is uploaded to and get it fixed and me too just in case I have an old version. If you have a scenario that is available but not listed here put it some where permanent (note I do *not* consider a drop box link permanent) and let me know. I monitor new additions to the scenario depot and theBlitz so you only need to tell me about new stuff that you host in other places.

Enjoy!
What this site is
It is supposed to be a search-able sort-able list of all scenarios for CombatMission games. It combines a list of all stock scenarios and all downloadable scenarios from the old repository, the new scenario depot with information from play result information from theBlitz.
What this site is not
It is not a source for uploading or downloading scenarios. This site does not host anything it only provides links to where the files are hosted.
A little background
The site is totally generated from the .btt and .cam files along with some data files with ulrs, author's names. What I have done is created directories for each game and organized the .btt files into Scenario, Map, and QB Map sub-directorires and the .cam files in to a campaign directory. I place the additional data (urls, authors names) into appropriately named files. I have a simple system of scripts that run @Mad Mike's
scan tool to produce xml data for the scenario files which I then process into html pages using xslt. So, when new content is released all I need to do is copy the .btt or .cam file to the right location add an entry with the additional data for the new file and run a script which creates the new html and ftps it to my web server.
* CM ShockForce and CM Afghanistan are not included. This is because the scan tool does not handle those files. There is talk that CMSF will be updated and @MadMike says he would consider updating the scanner for those files when that happens. When he does I'll add CMSF to the site. I don't think there is much hope of Afghanistan being added but again - if the scan tool is updated to handle it I'll add it to the site.
