For some reason Custom imports only the first script in my file. Here's the whole thing:

include, plotscr.hsd
include, starwarspenguins.hsi

plotscript, Introdution, begin
show text box (1)
suspend player
wait for text box
walk hero (0,north,3)
wait for hero (0)
resume player
end

plotscript, Encounter Bear, begin
show text box (2)
end

You should be writing script instead of plotscript.

I'm actually more wondering if he's using a really old version of the OHR, in which you need to identify each script as a number. ;P

He mentioned in IRC he was using Werewaffle, and also Windows Vista, if that helps.

If that's the case giz, my suggestion is moot.

This thread is surprisingly unhelpful. Might wanna ask TMC.

Hmm, well when I tried using OHR on my vista it didn't recognise plotscripts, I'm not sure if anyone else gets that when they use vistas.
I've gathered that OHR only works on XP and below, by trying various tests, sure it'll let you make games on a vista, but it won't let you have anymore than 1 plotscript, or in my case, not detecting any plotscripts at all.
Edit: Ooops, that all came out a bit wrong, theres nothing wrong with OHR, I was blaming vista Oookay...

The OHR *does* work on Windows Vista. I don't have it myself, but it has been fairly well tested there by others.

Your code appears to be correctly written.

Do you get an error message that suggests to you that only one script is working? Or is the "Encounter Bear" script simply missing when you try to select it from any of the places in CUSTOM that allow scripts?

Also, have you moved or renamed your script file at any point? Is it possible that you are actually accidentally importing on old copy of it from before you added the second script?

It might also be helpful to know the filename you have saved your script as, and the name of the folder you save it in.

Oh, also, what text editor are you using to write it.
