Make the game load maps with different names? - serbusfish - 02-07-2013

At the moment my level has to be named the same as the first map from the dark descent in order for the game to load it, is there a way to make the game load a map with a different name? Because otherwise I have to keep renaming my files if I want to build new maps so i can test them.

I would suggest reading this: http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/start

Mainly, #2 and #3. If you do everything correctly, you'll be able to load your custom story by pressing "Custom Story" in the main menu of the game. Then, it will only load the maps from your custom story.

Thanks i'll take a look, I currently have it set up so when I run the game it auto loads the 'rainy hall' level, so I have to rename my levels to that so I can play test them.
