Custom Story not showing up in game menu! - DirtyMrHedSic - 01-25-2013
I have found this to be a common problem, and I've done everything that I know to make it work.
Custom_story_settings.cfg
<Main
Imgfile = ""
Name = "Tutorial"
Author = "Campbell"
MapsFolder = "maps/"
Startmap = "01_cailen.map"
Startpos = "Playerstartarea_1"
/>
and my extra_english.lang

My 01_cailen.Hps is
void OnStart()
{
}
void OnEnter()
{
}
void OnLeave()
{
}
I have a custom story downloaded and it works fine, and everything is identical to mine. I am out of ideas, can anyone spot where my mistake is please?
Ty!
*I can email my map if anyone would care to check it for errors.

Make sure your maps folder is called "maps", and the start node is called "PlayerStartArea_1". Oh, and make sure your map is named "01_cailen". That's about all the help I can give on this.
Everything you've shown here seems to be in order.

All of those are in order. It's driving me insane not knowing what the issue is. Thank you for the reply!

You need to make sure they are capitalized in order too.
It's not enough that their names are the same, because they are not, if they aren't capitalized the same

You're forgetting many capitals
