Can't find my Custom Story - i3670 - 10-03-2011
Hello forum! I'm currently doing a map called coronation. I think the map looks pretty good, the only problem I have is that both my Amnesia (steam) and Amnesia (retail) can't find my map
. I've placed the map and script documents in both the steam and retail version. Can someone help me 
P.S. If you want any details on my scripting just leave a message below.
I can play Custom Stories, have tried 2 so far.

Chances are you either have a syntax error in the custom_story_settings.cfg file, you provided the wrong path for your story's map directory, have an issue with the starting map, or something random. I'm not sure what you did except for placing your script and map files in both of your Amnesia set-ups. You're going to need to provide all the steps you took when attempting to set-up your story.

This is my .cfg file
<Main
Name = "First"
Author = "i3670"
Imgfile = "story.jpg"
MapsFolder = "maps/ch01/"
startmap = "First.map"
startpos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>
Followed a guide on youtube. Looks right to me tbh.
In my maps folder I have my map and the .hps file. Outside the maps folder I have my .lang .cfg and the picture.
RE: Can't find my Custom Story - Your Computer - 10-03-2011
"startmap" and "startpos" and "Imgfile" should be "StartMap" and "StartPos" and "ImgFile". If that doesn't fix it, then can you post a link to the exact video?

Okay, so the video doesn't touch on the extra_english.lang file and i have no idea where he put his .map file (though he specified where it goes). Can i look at the contents of your extra_english.lang (or whatever langauge you chose) file?

This will sound so retarded...
Amnesia could find my map now. I had forgotten an "s" at the end of settings.
A new problem has come up though. When I tried to start it, it said:
Fatar Error: Could not load script file 'custom stories/Test/Custom_stories/Test/maps/ch01/First.hps'!
main (53,2): ERR: unexpected end of file
RE: Can't find my Custom Story - Your Computer - 10-03-2011
Post the contents of the First.hps file.

You're missing a function definition for the third code block (line 13). A code block that isn't a function (a.k.a. nested code blocks) are only allowed within function code blocks.
