I have tried everything for notes, THEY DON'T WORK! Help Please - KHShox - 04-09-2011

Here is my extra_english.lang code.
<LANGUAGE>
<RESOURCES>
</RESOURCES>
<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
<Entry Name="Note_Log_Name">Log of Castle Exploration</Entry>
<Entry Name="Note_Log_Text">Test</Entry>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>


I have also named the note in game to "Log", so they match, my language is set to english ingame, but when I pickup my note, it's blank.

Click the note, click the entity tab and under CustomSubItemType, that's the Name, and under it is the name for the text.

Okay, I had the box title number two with the name of the note already [Image: capture-1302383443.png]
I also have number one with the same name, but it still does not work.
NEVERMIND, I got it. The file was in the wrong area, *facepalm*

I've noticed this too. In my experience, you can bend over backwards and still not get a custom note to work if you're testing the map in a dev environment, but if you actually make a subfolder in the custom_stories folder for it and put everything in its proper place there (map in the maps folder, .lang file in the main folder), then it'll work.
