Diary not working - Damascus - 01-01-2013
I'm sure you guys get sick of seeing this problem, but my diary isn't working. I've put in game with the DiaryText set as "HartlibDiary." Here it is in my lang file:
<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
<Entry Name="Diary_HartlibDiary_Name1">Farewell</Entry>
<Entry Name="Diary_HartlibDiary_Text1">[br][voice Diary_HartlibDiary.ogg]Charles,[br][br]The Shadow[SPOILERS]Samuel Hartlib.</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
In my custom story folder here is the voice file: custom_stories/The Great Work/voices/diaries/Diary_HartlibDiary.ogg
When I pick the diary up, it doesn't display. I have to open it in my journal, and when I do, the voice doesn't play.

Dammit Damascus, you are having quite a lot of problems!
(just joking)Hmmm... I'm not sure if it's .ogg or .snt, and right now i'm in my laptop (it sucks) and I don't know what is it really. Have you changed another thing, apart from the diary?

1) Is the note entity a NOTE, or the "diary_generic"? It has to be set to the diary entity.
2) Remove the [SPOILERS]
3) Add a [br] after the [br][voice Diary_HartlibDiary.ogg][br]
Try doing those three

The [br] after the voice file was what I was apparently missing, it works now!
