Testing my map - Sn18 - 12-24-2010

Hello there! I'm new on this forum. I have Amnesia. Because of the scary game i also want to try to make my own.
I'm interested making my own scary maps.
So i have made a simple room with a simple light and furniture objects. and a simple ambience sound.
Now i want to test the map.
I've seen tutorials that you need to script some text files to bring it in your "Custom stories"

My problem is that i can make a TXT file to CFG.
But i can't change them to .LANG file or .HPS

So how to solve this?

Hope it helps.

Have you done this? When you are your own custom_stories folder do this Press ALT then tools -> Folder Options -> View -> delete that mark "Hide extensions for known file types"

Then you are done and you have hps. files and cfg corrected type!

The red cirlce whole around it needs to be filled with a wall or something.
And i don't know how. I can only choose things in enities list from those walls.
There are no such walls that are really small to fit in those little holes to close it.

Theres a static object named door_way in the castlebase set. That's what you are looking for.


RE: Testing my map - Sn18 - 12-24-2010

Found it and now its filled with wall around it. Thanks for that!
Now for so far i still have questions.

I choosed some candle lights. But the problem about that is that they started on while i start the level. I want them off. How do i do this?

Another problem is that i edited some furnitures and added a new hallway. And while i test the map again it wont update the my new hallway i've added. So actually i still have my old room. It only updates my furnitures in the room not my new hallway.
How to fix this?
