Could you post the search path to your folder? RE: Custom mode trouble... - Kreekakon - 04-10-2012 After opening your Amnesia install folder, open up the "redist" folder, the "custom_stories" folder will be in there. Also, as an off topic note, don't type in red. It's really unneeded.

I go to documents, press AMNESIA. then i click MAIN. thats the only folder in Amnesia. In there there is my saved games, then first_start_flag, hpl, installkey, launcher, main_settings. thats it and no redist folder. im sorry for writing in red, i guess i just accidently clicked it Even when i search the word ''custom'' on my computer for ANYTHING, it doesnt find it RE: Custom mode trouble... - Cranky Old Man - 04-11-2012 (04-10-2012, 09:32 PM)natycik Wrote:Just as I thought: You're in the wrong Amnesia folder. That is just your settings folder - not the folder where you installed the game. If you're using Steam, then the game folder is in your Steam folder. If you're not using Steam, then it's simply where you installed it - maybe under Programs\.(04-10-2012, 08:07 PM)Cranky Old Man Wrote:Well now somehow there ARE files o.o(04-10-2012, 07:56 PM)natycik Wrote: So i download the custom stories, and in the instructions it says to put them in to the custom_story folder in ''Amnesia'' folder...

Is this the right folder? Because i dont have anything else, but i still cant find the custom story folderI'm talking about C:\Programs\. You're currently in the Start menu folder where the shortcuts to your install path is. I could tell you to locate the actual path through right-clicking on those shortcuts and choosing Properties, but you don't seem to know computers that well, so at this point I'm worried that you'll mess up somehow. Do you have a family member there who knows computers?

In any case, you'll need to learn using a program called the "Explorer", not to be confused with "Internet Explorer". Until you know what you're doing better, I don't recommend trying to install custom stories - sorry.(04-11-2012, 05:00 AM)Cranky Old Man Wrote:Ahh im so sorry i feel really dumb for not knowing computers, all i wanted to do is just to play the game No I live with my mom she does not use the computer.
