Help please?
RE: message help - flamez3 - 01-12-2012
Can you post your updated .lang file as well as your .hps file?

RE: message help - flamez3 - 01-12-2012
I'm pretty sure that you not having the .lang file in the directory of your Custom Story is the problem, move the .lang over to your Custom Story folder for now and see if it works.
