Can't get past the apartments level. The mobile and the switchblade crashes the game, so I guess I can't get the first ending.

Couldn't find the yellow button, so I had to use gravity to get the item so I could get the second ending. I was looking everywhere for it before I decided to use gravity.

The level design was really good, and I liked the sound design you did. The item and monster balancing was great too. Overall, I enjoyed it a lot, and it's up there as one of the best CCs to CoF. The only problem is that you should really make sure the CC is bug free before you release it. That crash for instance is so easy to spot by just playing it once.

And here comes the most important advice to you: You must make better PR to this!!! You can't just release it and expect people to play it, if you're not showing it off to the public. Update the moddb page, make a trailer, show new screenshots on the moddb page, make a facebook page, do anything to get more people to play!

1. Dagnabbit! Why didn't anybody inform me of this? I forgot to put a folder which contains some models for the apartments maps.
I'll reupload the whole thing from the top again.

2. The yellow button is found on the building to the right when you first come up from egypt4, the one with the skeletons.
I guess i should leave some lanterns as somekind of hint then.

Edit : Wait, i did put a lantern on the hole with the skeletons, did you really explored all the temple?


3. I'll get right on it! I hope ModDB doesn't fail me again when uploading the file, seriously, my upload speed is so terrible, it took me 5 hours to upload this to MediaFire, with resumable uploads since my dad only allow me 1 hour of internet, that's how hard it is.

4. Glad you liked it! Have i release this during the competition, i could have gone Top 3, eh?

Top 1, maybe?

Nah...

I just glad i managed to finish it for you all, i'll get started on the Mod DB page.

Done, here's the ModDB page.

Recently i have been checking on my mod pages and seeing an average rating so far, but suddenly it drops dramatically, i saw this guy, Alexx321, who seems to be 1 rating both CoF mods i made, without any valid reasons, this concerns me, cause if i have a low ratings on my mod, people would think my mods are terrible, anyone knows if he's a troll or something? Just placing a 1 rating to make my mods look bad?

Edit : Oh, wait, the other guy was Kirk123, i mistake them since they have the same avatar and the same background info, seriously! Is this guy a troll who wants to make this mod i work hard of look bad!?

There are always people who downvote stuff without giving valid reasons. Don't worry mate, I'm sure it's just an attention troll. :joebiden:

The thing that worries me is that people might think my mods are bad or just too average because of these trolls.

Anywho, since there isn't a lot of activity around ModDB, i think i'll record some of the older maps from TSoS, the alpha version, show people how horrible the CC might have went had i sent it during my early knowledges of VHE.

Congrats on the v2.0 release
http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-scrolls-of-shaimoon-20-full-version/news/scrolls-of-shaimoon-20-released


So how do I start the mod? its not showing up in the custom campaign list or the host server list.

I placed it in the recommended location: Cry of Fear\cryoffear\

Did you place all the folders inside TSoS to the cryoffear folder? I think you may have only placed the TSOS folder inside the cryoffear folder, instead of the actual contents.

Don't worry about the overwritings though, it only overwrites the original maps so it won't break any installation from what i know.

Then you should be able to find "Scrolls of Shaimoon 2.0 - Full Version" on the Custom Campaign lists.

Do you have a Youtube link to the trailer? I want to post it on the CoF Facebook.

"It was said in the times of ancient Egypt when the pharaoh, Shaimoon, was depressed, his advisors, advised him to make a compilation of scrolls, "book" to be exact, about all of his feelings, telling them what he thinks about everything, the control, the people, and so forth, he finally finished it, little the advisors know, when he finally died, he curse the book so whoever opened it, shall bring hell upon Egypt, and even worser state on whoever opens it."
