Scenarios

Here are some sound scenarios which have been provided to the community by Ares users. Many thanks! To use these scenarios:

  1. Unzip the file into a directory
  2. In the Project Explorer of the Ares Editor, select "Import" from the context menu of a mode (not "Import" from the project menu, that's for whole projects, not for single scenarios)
  3. Choose the unzipped file with the ending apkg and confirm
  4. If you like, rename the new element (F2) or assign a key (F3)

If you also have scenarios which you'd like to make available, just send me a mail, I'll upload them. Please consider the licensing of the files.
