I'm trying to add a simple note, and it is the first note of my map.

Code:

<LANGUAGE>
  <CATEGORY Name="Warden's Logs">
    <Entry Name="Description">The recorded logs of the prison warden
    </Entry>
  </CATEGORY>
  <CATEGORY Name="Journal">
    <Entry Name="Note_WardensLog12_Name">Warden's Log: Day 12
    </Entry>
    <Entry Name="Note_WardensLog12_Text">It's been nearly two weeks since...
    </Entry>
  </CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

Now, the Text entry is curtailed because I was just testing it before writing the entire note, but either way, it does not work. The directory of my .map file is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Amnesia - The Dark Descent\redist\maps\The Cave-In\Maps\The Cave-In.map"

My .LANG file is in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Amnesia - The Dark Descent\redist\maps\The Cave-In"

The second Maps folder within the original "The Cave-In" folder is to organize all my different maps within the actual game itself.

The entity I have used is "note_paper01", and I renamed it "Note_WardensLog12", and in the NoteText box I have written "WardensLog12"

Lastly, the name of my LANG file itself is simply "extra_english".

I have tried to provide all the information necessary, and I hope someone can help me solve this problem.

Regards,
DaedinXZ

I have been frustrated with this for awhile, and now it's finally fixed

Again, thank you very much!
