LANG files.

[snowninja13]

Hi everyone, Ive been meaning to add notes to my level, but I dont understand how Im supposed to use/make a custom .lang file. Ive read the tutorial, but it isnt specific enough on what Im supposed to do!

As you can tell, Im a pretty n00b scripter, so your help is much appreciated!!

Sure i help you its easy when you get started for that

Believe its easier to script lang.file then hps..

Okay first:

Make extra_english.lang file and when you done it check first this: Press ALT then -> Tools -> Folder Options -> View then unmark this " Hide extensions for known filetypes"

Second: Make example: in your editor and choose note_generic or note_letter or whatever then Name that "Note_Test01"
Then go to Entity tab then write that NoteText field ONLY Test01 and save.

Finally: Example for my map:

<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">
<Entry Name="Description">You wake up an unknown castle you must escape quickly before darkness will kill you!</Entry> <- Important to add for basic stuff.. On your level
</CATEGORY>
<CATEGORY Name="Journal">

<Entry Name="Note_Test01_Name">Add name of your note</Entry>
<Entry Name="Note_Test01_Text">Add your text</Entry>
</CATEGORY> <- Important to add the end
</LANGUAGE> <- Important to add the end
Copy that..

I hope you understand

Ask more if you get trouble.

Just one thing, the extra_english.lang file, where does that go? Do I make it inside the Language configuration folder, or just in its old folder, this part is confusing me the most! D:
