Hi. I don't know if you can help. I have followed the install instuctions. I am using a local version of Twine running in the browser - 2.4.0-beta2. I am able to install this story format, but when I go to my story and click on play, I just get the default html rendering rather than a JSON file. I'd appreciate any pointers on what I may be doing wrong. Many thanks.

@tlodge I had the same issue when I was getting this setup. I had to select the story name, and select change story format to change the format to Twison to get it to work with an existing/imported story. By default the story was still being set to Hawlowe.

Hopefully this helps, good luck!

@tlodge and anybody coming here to find a solution: current Twine UI can be confusing, because you can see a list of story formats and highlight one under Twine -> Story formats, but it doesn't change anything. You need to navigate to Story -> Details and use the Story Format dropdown to actually change it, after adding it, of course. Now pressing Play should output the json. (Unfortunately, I still cannot import it where I need it but that's a whole different story)

Can confirm that this worked. Thanks y'all.
