RE: Game dosent found custom map

Thread title made me laugh Big Grin

I think there is something wrong with the custom_story_settings.cfg file.

EDIT: try adding a line, "MapsFolder = "maps" after ImgFIle, eg.

<Main
    Name="Alone"
    Author="Miguli"
    ImgFile="tunnelpic.jpg"

    MapsFolder = "maps/"
    StartMap="tunnel.map"
    StartPos="PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

Then, make sure your map is inside a folder called "maps", which is inside your custom folder for your custom story, which is then inside your custom stories folder.

eg.) custom_stories/mystory/maps/map1.map

Also, be careful with capitalisation. Make sure that folder names are kept to lower-case.

Try restarting the game if it still wont appear in the custom story menu after doing this.

RE: Game dosent found custom map

Let me say something, I personally already used the custom story "Alone". :p

I see the problem.

Make your "custom_story_settings.cfg" like this:

<Main
Name="Alone"
Author="Miguli"
ImgFile="tunnelpic.jpg"

MapsFolder="maps/"
StartMap="tunnel.map"
StartPos="PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

You needed the MapsFolder to be recognized correctly, or else the computer wouldn't be able to find the custom story. You have to replace the "maps/" with the folder(s) that have your map and hps files in there.

Example:

<folder> Alone
|<file> custom_story_settings.cfg
|<file> extra_english.lang
|<folder> maps
| |<file> tunnel.map
| |<file> tunnel.hps
| >
>


Edit: Darn it Nye, you beat me. :p

If you ever plan on releasing a custom story; send me a private message (PM), with your extra_english.lang file and your custom_story_settings.cfg, and I will correct any errors Smile

People can get grumpy about bad english Tongue

EDIT: Oh, and I beat you to it Kyle xD
