Just saying.
Oh, I just type my question into Google. it usually ends up with me on one of these threads... I'll try to bear that in mind before I go into another one of my questioning sprees XD

There's a search bar where you can find ALL the threads. Maybe, if you use it, you can find someone that had the same problem and that way you can fix it.
Google isn't the best place to search this threads.

RE: How to play/test my amnesia hpl map

Sooo... sorry for the bump.

I did as this thread said I put my custom map in the custom_stories folder.

Under the Mod map "Amnesia Custom"
Made the .cfg file and put the following information in it:

<Main
Name = "Custom Test"
Author = "KeysOfMyMind"
MapsFolder = "E:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Amnesia The Dark Descent\custom_stories\Amnesia custom\Maps"
StartMap = "Start.map"
StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>


But it still won't show up in the custom story branch of the game.

I only have Start.map in there for now but I wanna test it, how do I go about this?

You are wrong. Since you put your custom_story_settings.cfg in Amnesia custom, it remembers it. So, it should be like this.
<Main
Name = "Custom Test"
Author = "KeysOfMyMind"
MapsFolder = "Maps/"
StartMap = "Start.map"
StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>

/ and \ are actually considered the same. I used "MapsFolder = "maps/" and it still worked.

RE: How to play/test my amnesia hpl map

There are plenty of guides on how to do this out there. This is some very basic stuff and please make this the last place you go if you can't figure something out. If you give yourself time to read and understand all this stuff, i promise you that it will all become much easier. I was like you once, all new to this stuff, so don't get me wrong if you think I am accusing you for being an idiot. Wink
