This is how it should look.

It looks exactly like that! Still not working though.. Is it possible to link screenshots or pictures? I think what I need to see is how the amnesia folders should be laid out like.

Here it's. Though, I have map files in my maps folder, not another folder.

RE: Help trying to get Custom Story to work!

Ok, an update.. I set a dev environment, and when I start amnesia that way after following all instructions, it says FATAL ERROR: Could not load world file : 'blah blah'

This is from the HPL file in my documents:
User Initialization
--------------------------------------------------------
Setting profile: 'dev_user' Path: 'C:\Users\Ge15t\Documents/Amnesia/Main/dev_user/'
ERROR: Script file karl/ourflat.hps does not exist!
ERROR: World 'karl/ourflat.map' doesn't exist
FATAL ERROR: Could not load world file 'karl/ourflat.map'

Does not exist? Im pretty sure it does. Both of them do. Can anyone shed some light on this?

RE: Help trying to get Custom Story to work!

Didn't you see my folder?
You are supposed to put those files into your own custom_story folder. I can't get it, how you managed to screw this up?

A simple custom story folder should be like this:
- files
> folders

> redist
.> custom_stories
..> Your_Custom_Story
..- custom_story_settings.cfg
..- extra_english.lang.
..> maps
...- Your_Map_File.map
...- Your_Map_File.hps

And this is the custom_story_settings.cfg:
<Main
    Name = "Your_Custom_Story_Name"
    Author = "Your_Name"
    ImgFile = ""
    MapsFolder = "maps/"
    StartMap = "Your_Map_File.map"
    StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

RE: Help trying to get Custom Story to work!

The error is that you dont have MapsFolder = "maps/ch01/" the bolded folder, make it look like MapsFolder = "maps/" instead....

EDIT: I didn't see the picture you posted, but now i did. You have written the folder tree right but from the looks of that img you have placed the files in your main folder...they should be in the custom stories/yourcustomstory folder.
