SFZ sampler problems... looking for help!

I am trying to make a SFZ sampler in FLOWSTONE.. I have downloaded examples - none of them will load my .SFZ files. I am not sure what the problem is : either my .SFZ files are not formatted properly for FLOWSTONE or it is something else. What i do know is that my .SFZ files do work and are totally functional on other .SFZ plugins that are not made in FLOSTONE. I have attached 3 different versions of a .SFZ sampler / player - all 3 were downloaded from the FLOWSTONE forums as examples. Inside each .FSM is a .SFZ file as a comment note. Can someone please check out the attached SFZ modules and tell me what the problem is. All help is appreciated. I am hopeing to get one of these attached SFZ samplers to work so I can move on with my project. - Casper

This is the sentence, why I answer although I am not very familiar with the sfz format. My first guess would be, that the sfz file contains opcodes unknown to Flowstone's sfz component. It will still read the file and will give no warning, as it is a valid sfz file. But it can lead to the files not working, because of the missing opcodes. According to the reference, these are the supported opcodes:
- group
sample
lochan
hichan
lokey
hikey
key
pitch_keycenter
pitch_keytrack
effect1
effect2
lovel
hivel
transpose
tune
ampeg_delay
ampeg_attack
ampeg_hold
ampeg_decay
ampeg_sustain
ampeg_release
fileg_delay
fileg_attack
fileg_hold
fileg_decay
fileg_sustain
fileg_release
fileg_depth
fillfo_delay
fillfo_freq
fillfo_depth
amplfo_delay
amplfo_freq
amplfo_depth
loop_mode
Loop_start
loop_end
volume
pan
cutoff
resonance
How many of them are actually used in the schematics is yet another question.

My SFZ file is very basic using only few nessasary OP CODES. My .SFZ file is in the .FSM attached (comment note) and the next 2 coming. I am yes thinking the FLOWSTONE requires something different to the SFZ codes, however like I said the .SFZ I am using does fully function in other SFZ plugins so I cannot figure it out.
Maybe if someone has a .SFZ file that is working in FLOWSTONE they could please attach the .SFZ and I could just cross-reference to see myself - the differences in formatting.
Any FLOWSTONE working .SFZ file would be greatly appreciated.

The 3rd SFZ sampler made with FLOWSTONE.
Yet again, I cannot get any of these SFZ samplers to properly load my SFZ files.....

I make all myi own samples and sfzs as well as sf2s.
I had the same problem in the beginning.
It is the compatible coding that Flowstone Sampler requires.

REPLACE PREVIOUS DOWNLOAD DO NOT OVERWRITE
'Custom Designed' SFZs

These work fine with your schematics so tear some of my sfzs apart
to 'bend' and use the code with your own wav samples.
Also add the 'Clear Audio'' prim (w/trigger addon) to schematics to stop annoying key on freeze.
KEEP IT SIMPLE AND IT WONT EAT CPU!
Example Filename: 1 Grand Piano F4.sfz
----------
<group>
lovel=0
hivel=127
ampeg_release=1
<region>
sample=1 Grand Piano F4.wav
loop_mode=loop_continuous
pitch_keycenter=65
----------
P.S. Also check my sampler stuff out here I'm "pwesynthmaker"
Mostly in the User Examples Forum.
