POSSIBLE SPOILERS, FINISH THE GAME FIRST!!
Finish the game, then read this guide. It's quite long so it'll take me some time to add spoilers after I post this.
0. Introduction
Hi! It seems that you just finished completing your playthrough of IMSCARED, and now you wanna replay certain maps in the game, or you wanna just view them as if you are still on Loneliness. With this guide, you can easily figure out how to do that! Just make sure to create a backup of your white.ini file to ensure that no data is lost, and then you'll be ready to try it out.

If you wish to replay IMSCARED maps WITHOUT Loneliness, check out this guide here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2895332783
1. Step-by-step Tutorial
Step 1: Press Windows Key + R and go to %localappdata%/IMSCARED_new
Versions before the 2022 patch will NOT work with this guide.

Step 2. Backup your white.ini file, so then you can revert back any changes just in case you mess up something.

Step 3. Open white.ini and find the "imscared=##.000000" value.
If it is NOT there, add an extra line below [hello] and then add it.

Step 4. From here, change the ## to any number between 0 and 55, depending on what number you choose, it will go to a level in IMSCARED.

Step 5. Make sure that "zone=" is still on "loneliness" (zone=loneliness). If it is NOT on "loneliness", levels will NOT change.

Step 6. After editing everything that you needed to do, press CTRL + S to save, or just click "X" and click save.

Step 7. Once you have saved, re-open IMSCARED and see if you spawned somewhere interesting!

Basically the imscared=## setting is like switching between levels or triggers, so sometimes you'll go to the normal loneliness maps, you may either just get black screens, or you'll find some really cool dev maps, and etc. There is a limit for this setting however, that limit is 53.
2. Quick Descriptions
Nothing = Just black, absolutely no control
Nothing w/ ESC Menu = Just black but shows ESC menu & allows walking
Show Main Menu & Loops = It will load the launch credits and map selection, but will repeat when pressing E on the "piano"
Dev Map = Self-explanatory, it will go ta dev map, it will have random stuff, like doors, random rooms, unused stuff, etc.
Loneliness = It will go to a normal map, but with the Loneliness version, so it has no scares or jumpscares.
Normal = You may/will spawn out-of-bounds with "zone=" still being on the "Loneliness" setting, but it'll bring you back to the Normal version of that level/map.

5. Support, Notes & Extra Information
1. If you wanna have the normal experience, no out-of-bounds, no loneliness stuff, bring back fog etc, follow this guide:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=627349171 2. If you wanna go through all of the levels but through a normal experience, follow the guide here:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2895332783
3.If you wanna unlock Restorer in the 2022 update or go to the maps she brings you to, go to this guide here: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2875453576
4. This may be outdated if the creator of IMSCARED, Ivan Zanotti, updates the game with new maps/levels, more ♥♥♥♥, and etc. It should still work as long as the white.ini stays mostly the same, but levels wise, it may change.

5. If the "imscared=" option is missing, add a new line under [hello] and then add the imscared= setting yourself:
6. Conclusion
I found all of this by simply just fooling around with the white.ini and figured out that the setting, imscared=XX, is the level/scene changer. I decided to fool around with the numbers, find the limit, find the lowest you can go and more. All in all, this was pretty fun to go through seeing all of the hidden maps and normal maps that weren't meant to be seen in Loneliness, and more.

Special thanks to:
darkbrumoment#3515 - 513809328227221504
They sent me a in-game imscared=## level changer which made this much easier. so thank you.

The last thing I'll say is that I would recommend joining the IMSCARED fan Discord Server, you can put any discoveries you find in there or just talk to the community: https://discord.gg/rpJW7NK

If there are any issues with the guide or any fixes I should add, put a comment below in the guide.

That's all for now.

I'll be back!

Some weird green lines on the floor that act as walls. I asked someone else and apparently it's been there for a while?
Darkn  [author] 17 Oct, 2024 @ 12:59pm

DoveHeartling 17 Oct, 2024 @ 6:07am 
I found something in value 2 after the game updated in celebration of the mobile/android port.
Darkn  [author] 13 Jan, 2024 @ 6:28pm 
any normal areas or areas you aren't supposed to be in won't work, f

updated with part 2! (accidentally deleted this)
Darkn  [author] 28 Nov, 2022 @ 9:18am 
azzy, by the looks of it, you need to finish the game first before you unlock the IMSCARED= option, so it may be more cryptic (more stuff), but all of the stuff you need to change levels have stayed the same, sorry if there was any confusion!
