Custom Story Help Needed!

[gantoman]

I downloaded the editor suite .zip. extracted all the files into the Amnesia directory except for the leveleditor.pdb it won't extract. the editor works fine and saves and all but:
1. the .map file won't show in my maps file in my custom story folder
2. doesn't show up in my Amnesia menu.
please help me

I dont really understand the problem here.. You made an amnesia map and it wont show in your custom story menu in the game ? or is your editor not working ?

the editor works. but the map won't appear in my menu in-game. I think it's because of a missing file that wouldn't extract from the .zip i downloaded. it's the leveleditor.pdb

I also followed this tutorial till the end of part 2 and it still wouldn't work:

show me your custom story cfg file.. the one you made with the help from tutorial

the script in it, copy and paste it here

You need to make a Folder, then make a folder called "maps" in that folder, a jpg picture (backgound when launching the CS) and a CFG file with this code:

Code: (Select All)

<Main     ImgFile = "story_background.jpg"     Name = "CUSTOM STORY NAME"     Author = "YOUR NAME"         MapsFolder = "maps/"     StartMap = "STARTMAP.map"     StartPos = "PlayerStartArea ON THE FIRST MAP" />

You'll need to change it. you see what each is for.

<Main Name = "Our Example Story" Author = "Gantoman" MapsFolder ="maps/" StartMap = "00_example.map StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1" />

I did that but it's not the same code nor a JPG file. it's a .map file and yes I saved it in a folder called maps in the "test" (which happens to be name of story) folder inside the custom_stories.

and the .map file doesn't show up in the maps folder but when I try to save it again with the editor it's there

The problem with the .map not showing try turn on your show hidden files option in your explorer

ummm how? and PLEASE help me make it appear in my custom stories in the game menu, I don't care to see the .map file as long as it exists. but if it will help tell me how

EDIT: OK I managed to show my hidden files. still not there.

[SilentStriker]

hmm strange. You may have saved it wrong. Anyways can you send me your cs and I'll take a look at it?
