Frictional Games Forum (read-only) - Narration won't work

Hello Forum!

I'm currently trying to narrate a note but it doesn't work.

Script and .lang :

Name: note_generic_1
CustomSubItemName: A1
NoteText: A1

Narration: checked
OpenNoteInJournal: checked

<LANGUAGE>
<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
<Entry Name="Note_A1_Name"> Random Title </Entry>
<Entry Name="Note_A1_Text">[br][voice note_test.ogg][br]Random rabbeling</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Location of the sound file: redist/custom_stories/haunting/sounds/voices

Solved: If anyone else needs help with diary narration just click in the "Noob to pro"-link in Your Computers signature.

Convert to diary.

Convert the "Journal" or the "Note_A1_Text" or "Note_generic_1" or the sound file?

Use the diary_paper01 entity instead of the note_generic entity.

Tried that, didn't work.

That's because simply changing the entity to a diary entity isn't enough. Diaries have their own entry syntax that differ from notes.

But how come it doesn't work with notes? I know that diaries need narrations to work.

Edit: Solved it, thanks for the help.
