Y U NO WORK!!! - blakeman909 - 01-02-2013

Ok so whenever I open up amnesia it says "Could not load world file map folder/my_map.map. I need it to open this up. Here's my user_settings.cfg. <Game ShowCommentary="false" ShowCrossHair="true" FocusIconStyle="Default" ShowDeathHints="true" ShowSubtitles="true" ShowEffectSubtitles="false" ShowHints="true" />
<Debug ShowFPS="false" ShowSoundPlaying="false" ShowPlayerInfo="false" ShowEntityInfo="false" SaveCheckPointOnMapLoad="false" ShowDebugMessages="false" UseProgLog="false" ScriptDebugOn="false" InspectionMode="false" DisableFlashBacks="false" DrawPhysics="false" ReloadFromCurrentPosition="true" AllowQuickSave="true" />
<Input InvertMouse="false" SmoothMouse="true" MouseSensitivity="1.000000" />
<Map File="my_map.map" Folder="mapfolder/" StartPos="" />

I have me mapfolder inside the maps folder. my_map.map is inside my mapfoler. Any ideas of what is wrong?

Also I highly doubt this will help but here's my resources.cfg file

<Resources>
<Directory Path="/_temp" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/fonts" AddSubDirs="false" />
<Directory Path="/maps" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/textures" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/models" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/gui" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/static_objects" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/sounds" AddSubDirs="true" />

<Directory Path="/misc" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/commentary" AddSubDirs="true" />
<Directory Path="/custom_stories" AddSubDirs="true" />
</Resources>

Also here's my main_settings.cfg

<Main ShowMenu="false" ExitMenuDirectly="true" SaveConfig="false" DefaultProfileName="dev_user" UpdateLogActive="false" LoadDebugMenu="false" StartLanguage="english.lang" ScreenShotExt="jpg" ForceCacheLoadingAndSkipSaving="false" ShowPreMenu="false" />

Issues concerning custom story development doesn't belong in technical support.

You have to assume the current working directory is the directory Amnesia is installed in. Therefore Map::Folder being "mapsfolder" means <Amnesia>/mapsfolder, not <Amnesia>/custom_stories/<custom_story_name>/mapsfolder. However, even saying that, i doubt it'd work to load custom story maps.

Even though the wiki states to use it, you shouldn't bother using the Map element in the user_settings.cfg for testing your custom story, so go back and edit your main_settings.cfg and make Main::ShowMenu equal true and test your custom story by loading it from the custom story menu..
