Amnesia Custom Story help anyone?? Thread

So, people, I need some help... I am trying to solve an "Unexpected end of file" problem. I am getting this error:

FATAL ERROR: Could not load script file "custom_stories/Calm Terror/maps/04_dungeons.hps!
main (59,1) : ERR : Unexpected end of file

Also, here is the whole .hps file code:

////////////////////////////
// Run when the map starts
void OnStart()
{
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Monster_script_10", "SpawnEnemy", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "WaterLurker_script", "SpawnEnemy2", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "PopUp_2", "EnableMessage2", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "PopUp_3", "EnableMessage3", true, 1);    
}

void SpawnEnemy(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{
    SetEntityActive("servant_brute_1", true);
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_1", 0, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_2", 0, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_3", 0, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_4", 0, "");
    AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_5", 0, "");
}

void SpawnEnemy2(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{
    SetEntityActive("waterlurker_1", true);
}

void EnableMessage2(string &in asChild, string &in asParent, int alState)

{
    SetMessage("Messages", "PopUp2", 0);
}

void EnableMessage3(string &in asChild, string &in asParent, int alState)

{
    SetMessage("Messages", "PopUp3, 0); 
}
////////////////////////////
// Run when entering map
void OnEnter()
{
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Music_area_1", "StartMusic", true, 1); 
}

void StartMusic(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

{
    PlayMusic("21_amb.ogg", true, 0.8, 2, 1, true);
}
////////////////////////////
// Run when leaving map
void OnLeave()
{
 
}

Please help me, I was searching everywhere for answers and could not solve this...

Thank you for your help in advance!!

    SetMessage("Messages", "PopUp3, 0); 

PopUp3 is missing the other quotation, (")

Wow, thank you so much ShiftedDesign!! It solved the problem! Now I can continue my work...

Not a problem, good luck in your work!

Also I recommend using a program such as Context or Notepad++ which has color highlights for specific items.
It makes it much easier to catch things like this.

I don't actually work with Amnesia so I don't know how helpful I will be but, how can your .hps file look like that when the other guys looked like this:

////////////////////////////
// Run when the map starts
void OnStart()
{
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "Monster_script_10", "SpawnEnemy", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "WaterLurker_script", "SpawnEnemy2", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "PopUp_2", "EnableMessage2", true, 1);
    AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "PopUp_3", "EnableMessage3", true, 1);    
}

void SpawnEnemy(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)

Are you sure that this is how it is suppose to be written? Can you give me some more info on it?

i sorted it now but thanks anyway

Alright I've got the same problem and this is how my hps fle looks like

////////////////////////////// Run when entering mapvoid OnEnter(){AddUseItemCallBack("","GuestRoomKey,"mansion_1","UsedKeyOnDoor", true);}void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity{ SetSwingDoorLocked("mansion_1", false, true); PlaySoundAtEntity"", "Unlock_door", "mansion_1",0, false); RemoveItem("GuestRoomKey");} ////////////////////////////// Run when leaving mapvoid OnLeave(){ }

             ////////////////////////////// Run when entering mapvoid 
             OnEnter()
             {
               AddUseItemCallBack("","GuestRoomKey,"mansion_1","UsedKeyOnDoor", true);
             }
             void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
             { 
               SetSwingDoorLocked("mansion_1", false, true); 
               PlaySoundAtEntity"", "Unlock_door", "mansion_1",0, false); 
               RemoveItem("GuestRoomKey");
             } ////////////////////////////// Run when leaving mapvoid 
             OnLeave()
             { }

You were missing a ) on the UsedKeyOnDoor Function.
This is what it should say: void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)

Hello. Apparently I have the same problem as Cveri is having. I have Amnesia and I was working on level editor and scripting which I love to do and every time I go into my custom story, it gets the unexpected end file. I tried checking the file but I didn't see any problems. Here's my Script:

void OnStart()
	{
		AddUseItemCallback("", "ClosetDoorKey_1", "Interactdoor", "Unlock", true);
	}

void Unlock(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)
	{
		SetSwingDoorLocked(asEntity, false, true);
		PlaySoundAtEntity("", "unlock_door", asEntity, 0, false);
		RemoveItem(asItem);
	}

void look1(string&in asTimer
	{
		StartPlayerLookAt("look1", 1.0f, 1.0f, "");
		AddTimer("", 3, "look2");
	}
	
void look2(string&in asTimer
	{
		StartPlayerLookAt("look2", 1.0f, 1.0f, "");
		AddTimer("" , 3, "look3");
	}
	
void look3(string&in asTimer
	{
		StartPlayerLookAt("look3", 1.0f, 1.0f, "");
		AddTimer("", 3, "look4");
	}
	
void look4(string&in asTimer
	{	
		StopPlayerLookAt();
	}

I'm still not finished with it but I need help so I can continue working.

Hope someone could help me with wath i think is a simple problem, im trying to learn how to do an Amnesia custom story, and i have made a smal map just for testing, but the problem is that i have saved it in the custom story map, but i cant se it? but i can play it?

felixhaljeskog, I believe you already sorted out your problem, but Id like to help other people having the same problem.

When you make a custom story map in - ATDD/redist/custom_stories/story_name - you need to have two text files:

1. custom_story_settings.cfg
2. extra_english.lang

In custom_story_settings.cfg you gotta have this:

<Main 
	ImgFile = "image_name" 
	Name = "Name of Your story" 
	Author = "Your name" 
	
	MapsFolder = "maps/" 
	StartMap = "map_name.map" 
	StartPos = "PlayerStartArea_1" 
/>

In ImgFile, you can put a picture for the background in the main menu when you choose a CS to play.
MapsFolder is always "maps/". You need to have a maps folder in your custom story`s folder.

extra_english.lang must contain the following:

<LANGUAGE>
<RESOURCES>
  </RESOURCES>
  
	<CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">
		<Entry Name="Description">Description of your Custom Story</Entry>
	</CATEGORY>
