Hi @Gruszkomir
Thanks for submitting, but we need to fix a couple of things before I can publish this.

The Manifest for Valkyrie will not accept spaces (%20), so could you remove the space in the scenarios Repository. Also could you rename the scenario, it appears to have the default for polish. With a default name it will not show up in the statistics and you will not be able to see feedback or have your scenario rated.

You can change the scenario by renaming the scenario folder in the Editor directory:
(It also cannot contain spaces)

%appdata%Valkyrie\MoM\Editor\
image

I'll write some "issues". I don't have physical expansions so I only tested the scenario in the app.

  1. Before even the scenario starts, you click Continue twice and after that there is nothing. I mean, it isn't clear to click again to continue. It'd be good if there was a "Start" button or something like that.
  2. (I'm Polish) You have mistakes in the text, bad interpunction, misspellings etc..
  3. When a phase changes, it'd be nice if they have a screen indicating it.
  4. Should some buttons be blue?
  5. After you open the bottom door on the second screen and a new tile appear, a wall should be placed immediately, not after you open another door!
  6. I find the test at the school entrance BAD. No matter how many success dice you through, you always evade and never get the shotgun. Is it possible to get it? Why the blades are there? Blades in the walls of a school? That also doesn't make sense.
  7. Why there is only one entrance to the Printing Press if there are two doors? Either add an extra explore token or coved another door with a wall.
  8. It is possible to fire the event of the appearing of the kid fires twice. Once if you go through school, the second time if you go through the secret entrance. Create a trigger preventing the behaviour.

I haven't been following the plot much but from what I followed it seems nice :).

When a phase changes, it'd be nice if they have a screen indicating it.

This is done by Valkyrie. It doesn't appear when you "save and test" but if you run the scenario from offline mode you'll see investigator and mythos splash screens.

I see. Didn't know. I'm not a creator :). Thanks, scrubbless.

Hello, i make a update :) I think I corrected most of the errors

Hi @Gruszkomir

I've added the scenario to the manifest but it doesn't appear to be listing.

I suspect the . (Full stop) in your repo name may be causing an issue.

@benrq can you check if you can see an error in Valkyrie?

The scenario appears (maybe check your filter language?), but download doesn't work.

@Gruszkomir , you should use the same filename between the .ini and the .valkyrie, otherwise the app can't find the file.

And you should not use the directory name, or filename to track version number, because if you change the directory or filename again, we will have to change the path again and you won't be autonomous to manage your update.

To track the version, I recommend to use the scenario name like Scrubbless does.

So:
1) rename your directory MiastoweMgle
2) Rename the Valkyrie file MiastoweMgle
3) Scrubbless update the path when it's done, and it should work :)

Yeh I just notice that it appeared:
image

However it won't download.

You should rename your un-packaged scenario and repo name (remove the full stop to be safe) then re-package the scenario from inside valkyrie (tools, create package). Creating from inside valkyrie will correctly name the files for you.

I have a problem. when I create a package, I'm not able to open it by valkyrie. The scenario works only when I unpack it manually to the editor folder

When you create the package it exports it to a folder on your desktop. If you drop that folder into %appdata%\valkyrie\mom\editor directory you will see it in offline mode. But you don't need to do that.

Just create the package (in Valkyrie) then upload that folder from the desktop to your repo.

I have updated the scenario with the new link.

In regards to your video.
I think I understand the problem, I don't believe you can just drop files into the "Downloads" folder in Valkyrie, since it only contains .valkyrie files of scenarios that you have downloaded.

If you copied a scenario in there you would need to reference it in the manifest.ini.
Here is what mine looks like:

This is a lot of work that you won't really need to work about.

The package (folder) that you have created. Are you just uploading that directly to GitHub?

No need to do anything I just said, your new link is working:

Just for refernece - this is how I do it:

I have a PublishedScenarios repo on my github:
image

In GitHub Desktop I have cloned this repo to my desktop:
image

Here you can see the contents are in Sync:
image

I create a new package of the scenario (as you did in the video):
image

The scenario is generated and put onto the desktop and I just drag it to the PublishedScenarios folder (which is the local version of my online repo):
image

The new scenario appears in GitHub Desktop:
image

I can then commit this and push it to my online repo:
image

No need to do anything I just said, your new link is working:

You're right ! It's working now. Thanks for your patience ! This is my first scenario, where I practiced how valkyrie works. I have more complicated scenarios in preparation,
I just have to play "live"

Thanks @Gruszkomir
We got there in the end! It should be easy for your next one! I will close this issue.

I have also added the scenario to the stats sheet, so look out for feedback and ratings here:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OsevlouIvR0DRYhGIS41PU9lBLB8VYgJvyj9KsHcAik/

I would encourage you to look into GitHub desktop, it is really handy.

For example, you can create a repo for "WorkInProgress" scenarios and clone it to
%appdata%\Valkyrie\MoM\Editor\

When you create a new scenario just move it into the "WorkInProgress" folder (in the UNC path above) and it will still be visible in the Valkyrie Editor. When you make changes and hit save, you will see the changes appear in GitHub Deskop and you can commit them to your online repo. This will give you version control and the ability to clone your code to as many machines as you like.

I have this setup on three PC's, so that I can work on my scenarios and keep all of the code in sync.

Here is an example:
