I have installed the level editor and started creating a custom story. I saved it in the map folder as the same name as my custom story. But when i launch the game it won't show up. What is the problem?
A custom story needs to be set up like a custom story in order for it to appear in your game's Custom Story list. The minimum required to make the CS appear is a custom_story_settings.cfg file, and a single map. The config file must be kept inside of a folder within your custom_stories directory in Amnesia's directory.
See Step 3 here for more information:

You should also, simply because it helps with the Custom Story creation process, set up the Developer Environment if you have not done so already:

I did it but it still won't work
Could you package your custom story and upload it? Then we can take a look and see where the issue is.
Use an archiving tool like WinRAR or 7Zip to create a .zip or .rar file of the entire folder, then upload it to something like

How do i do that? Sorry but i am bad at this
Upon opening the folder, I immediately see an issue. Your extensions are wrong.
See how these end in .txt? Most likely this happens because you have extensions hidden on your machine, therefore when you add an extension, there's an additional extension appended but hidden.
Enable extensions. It should be in Explorer > View > File extensions (for Windows 10).
Upon further inspection, I see another error in your custom_story_settings file: It's missing the closing tag.
It should end with /> at the end.
Your extra_english file seems fine, except the extension, and that it should end in
.lang not
_lang.
