Problems with sharing my story... - SLAMnesia - 06-22-2011

hey guys,

I emailed my friend my custom story, but he keeps getting a VERY old version of it.. When I play it on my computer I get the newest type and he gets the oldest type but I share him the same files and everything. It's very frustrating please help

Are you sending him the files seperately or do you have it compressed into one file?

Either way, just have your friend delete the files associated with your story, then do a fresh install of it.

Im compressing the entire folder

Try deleting the map cache(s).

It could be because there was a cache. You should remove everything but the map and it's script.
Delete the cache stuff.

Like palistov Said Smile

He should delete the map cashes and also the maps/cashes from this folder:

C:\Users\-HIS-USER-NAME-\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Amnesia - The Dark Descent or whatever folder Amnesia is into.
