You have to have all the files concerning your campaign in one folder located inside the "custom_stories" folder. Then go into your campaign's folder and open notepad. Save As... "custom_story_settings.cfg" exactly like that, no quotations. Then put this in there and fill in the areas with your information:


<Main
ImgFile = "PREVIEW_IMAGE"
Name = "CAMPAIGN_NAME"
Author = "kartanonperuna"

MapsFolder = "maps/"
StartMap = "MAP_NAME.map"
StartPos = "PLAYER_START_AREA"
/>

Hmm still doesnt work...
I have it like this:


<Main
ImgFile = "story.png"
Name = "Just another night"
Author = "Kartanonperuna"

MapsFolder = "maps/"
StartMap = "Just another night.map"
StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

make sure the directory is correct. for example. what is the name of the folder your maps are located in?

You need _ between Just another night. Change the name to Just_another_night.map in the .cfg aswell as the filename

Not necessarily. If his map has spaces, he has to leave it with spaces. If it has underscores, THEN he should put them.

I dont have any underscores.And my maps are located in Custom stories,Just another night folder and in there,maps folder.

so it runs down like this? (capitalizations, spaces, and spelling ALL the same):

"custom_stories > Just another night > maps"

Kannattaa ottaa jonku toisen tekemä custom story kansio, tehä kopio siitä ja muokata ne tiedostot sillai että seon sun oma stoori. Eli mennä maps kansioo ja vaihtaa mapit ja .hps tiedostot omiks.
custom_story_settings filussa muutat vaa nimet ja StartMap/StartPos.

Eipä toimi.Perkele kusee tämä homma.Voikohan mapista johtua?Että mitä se vaatii että se toimii edes.Start pointin olen laittanut ja ainakin yhden huonee rakentanut.
