Problems with notes - afroduckie - 02-01-2013

I have a small issue... The notes in my CS work, but it doesnt automatically open the note. I even have the "open in journal" option selected. Any ideas?

Is it a diary or a note?

Diaries require a sound file; if they are picked up without a sound file, they will immediately close, and the player will have to open it up in their journal. Notes don't require a sound file, so they should open up just fine.

One diary and two notes. none of them worked. I did have a sound file for the diary though...

Yeah, but the issue isnt that I did them wrong. The notes show up, the dont open automatically though.

So, what you mean is that when you picked up the note, it opens 5 seconds later?

No, he means that when he picks the note, you don't read it and you have to open journal to see it.
