Frictional Games Forum (read-only)

Hello,

It seems a lot of people have issues with this file, I've gone through a few threads and looked at problems people had and made sure mine was correct, but it's still not working.. Nothing actually works in game.
Its probably something stupid, but I mean I've looked at other peoples scripts and mine isn't really that different. Its in my custom story folder, and it is a .LANG, so I'm assuming I've scripted something wrong!

Please help me out
Thanks!

Try taking out the line that says "//Study Key". Also, you need a </CATEGORY>, and then under that put </LANGUAGE>.

I'm new to this, but I think your problem is that you need to put:

</CATEGORY>

after your Inventory category and Journal category. Like, how you have your Levels and Language set up.

I hope this helps!

I took out the //Study key and nothing happened.
there is a </LANGUAGE> as well, I just didn't link the whole script because the last part was just the credits, and </CATEGORY> got added too but didn't change anything

Any more thoughts?

Did you use notepad++ or just regular notepad ?

Notepad++

Well, try to use other CS .lang file. Delete all their stuff in the .lang file and add your stuff there.

If you mean make a new one and put the same stuff in it, I've tried that.
If you mean use a different program, I'll give that a go,
Should I try just notepad?

Thanks for your help

Can you please post your whole .lang file? Because if there's just one mistake, the whole .lang file won't work

//Study Key is not valid.
Missing 2 category end tags and missing language end tag.
