        <Entry Name="Diary_ndiaryone_Text1">[voice Diary_NoteToSelf_01.ogg][br] Hello Nathaniel, [br][br]At the moment you're most likely reading this full of sweat and fear.[br]You cannot remember what you are doing here, which is a good thing, as it will only make you stronger. [br]At the moment, all you ever need to know is that you have to get out of here, anyway you can. [br]Also, there is a plague broken out in the castle, and you are the last known survivor, but there may be more. [br]One last thing, there are these...things. These monsterous creatures of the dark, lurking in the shadows. [br] [br] Your former self, [br] [br]Nathaniel. </Entry>

Kinda like that style ^^^^^?

Well, you are attempting to make a diary narration there, which is something totally different. For a flashback, it should be something along the lines of this. (in extra_english.lang)

    <CATEGORY Name="Journal">
    <Entry Name="Diary_ndiary1">Hello Nathaniel</Entry>
<Entry Name="Diary_ndiary2">At the moment you're most likely reading this full of sweat and fear.</Entry>
    </CATEGORY>

Etc.., and in the .flash you would need this for my example:

<Flashback>
    <Voices>
        <Voice VoiceSound="flashbacks/Diary_ndiary1.ogg" EffectSound="" TextCat="Journal" TextEntry="Diary_ndiary1" />
        <Voice VoiceSound="flashbacks/Diary_ndiary2.ogg" EffectSound="" TextCat="Journal" TextEntry="Diary_ndiary2" />
    </Voices>
</Flashback>

Of course you can use do this multiple different ways; for instance, you could have the whole narration said in one .ogg file and then all you would need is one <Voice/> line and one line in the .lang file. Up to you on how to split it and such.

Oh, you misunderstood, i knew that's diary narration but i was meaning the same concept as <CATERGORY> thing.
