Help with Custom Story!

[Damondestroyer]

Basically, i made my custom story, but it doesnt appear in the list. I made a folder in the custom story folder with everything in it, and in that folder my .cfg settings and a subfolder with my map. But, am i missing anything? If its the MAP_CACHE, i have no idea how to get that. Thank you in advance.

Do you have a .hps for the map? And are you sure the .cfg is done correctly?

[Akumasama]

.hps is not necessary.

This is what a basic map looks like.

Code: (Select All)

custom_stories>
   "story name">
      custom_story_settings.cfg
      maps>
         "map name".hps
         "map name".map

The arrow is a new sub-folder

It still doesnt seem to appear. I made a .hps file of the same name of the map, but nothing.

Then you should probably post the contents of your cfg, for verification purposes - Redacting the name of the story if you want to.

Also, .hps may not be necessary, but its best not to just jab your finger into one mark and ignore any others;

<Main
Name="Test map!"
Author="Damondestroyer"
ImgFile=""

StartMap="test_map.map"
StartPos="PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

<Main
Name="Test map!"
Author="Damondestroyer"
ImgFile=""

MapsFolder = "*Insert Folder Containing Maps Name Here/"
StartMap="test_map.map"
StartPos="PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

You seem to be forgetting one important thing...
Also, the / is intentional, and are the ". Just fill in the * marked area, deleting the *'s as well.

so
MapsFolder = "maps/"
Would work
