Problem with making notes - Symbi0sis - 02-13-2012
Hi, I'm trying to make a custom story for Amnesia: The Dark Descent, but I'm stuck. When i add notes, following this tutorial:
http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/tutorials/script/howtomakenotes, it doesn't show any text in the game, just an empty note.
Can anyone help with this problem?

What note are you using.
RE: Problem with making notes - Symbi0sis - 02-13-2012
Changing the names didn't work and I'm using a note_letter.
I really have no idea how to fix this but I would really appreciate if someone took a look at it.
Here's all the files i have made so far and the note is in the second room on the table:

Try using letters only. I tried using numbers and it didn't work at all. Can you show me your .hps file too?

Try putting this in your .lang file.
RE: Problem with making notes - Symbi0sis - 02-13-2012
I have tried without numbers to, but it doesn't work either.
The .HPS file is in the .zip file as well, just unzip it.
Your .lang file didn't work either...

also, your .lang isn't supposed to be in your maps folder. Put it where your custom_story_settings file is at. Do you even have a key? You didn't mention the key name in any of the scripts??
RE: Problem with making notes - Symbi0sis - 02-13-2012
No... You wrote that about the key, but thank you! When i moved the .lang file it worked!
