Okay, so I have a working game description... that area is good. As I was creating my first Amnesia Custom Story, I got to a point were a note is needed. I have my note named as 1stnote, below is my extra_english.lang (minus the actual story notes, I wish to leave it as a surprise to those who will play the game). What am I doing wrong?

What's the problem? Is the note not showing anything when picked up?

It sounds like you named the note through the internal name box (where it would say something like "item_generic_note_01")

Go into the Entity tab of the note and scroll down to the little box titled "NoteText" and put 1stnote in THERE.

EDIT: "NoteTEXT", not NoteName...

IT WORKED! Thank you very much This is my first note that I was working on in my very first Custom Story titled "The Mine: Chapter 1". Notes are an important part in telling the story in any custom story, so this was good to get through.
