[SOLVED]Help please: map not showing up

Hi everyone, i am in the making of a custom story for amnesia and i have a little problem.
My "mapname.map" wont show in my folder (maps/mapname.map). But when i open the level editor it shows.
And when i try to open it in game it wont show anything.

Please respond if you know any solution.

If you want the file to show, just save it to your desktop(if using Windows)
And coz it doesn't show ingame, there might be a typo in your .cfg

Try this to your .cfg file:





<Main
Name="Episode IV: A New NOPE"
Author="Dennis Falck"
ImgFile=""
StartMap="00_newlife.map"
StartPos=""
/>




And this to your .lang file:




<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY NAME="CustomStoryMain">
<ENTRY NAME="Description">Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.</ENTRY>
</CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>


Works with that? Smile
