Sharepoint Application 2013 custom list new page

I have a sharepoint-hosted application and some lists within this app. I want to replace default new form with my own page. I've modified schema.xml for the list:

    <Forms>
      <Form Type="DisplayForm" Url="DispForm.aspx" SetupPath="pages\form.aspx" WebPartZoneID="Main" />
      <Form Type="EditForm" Url="EditForm.aspx" SetupPath="pages\form.aspx" WebPartZoneID="Main" />
      <Form Type="NewForm" Url="NewForm.aspx" SetupPath="features\$SharePoint.Feature.DeploymentPath$\Pages\Default.aspx" WebPartZoneID="Main" />
    </Forms>

But there is an error during deployment "Cannot find the file specified". How can I point to my page in sharepoint-hosted application list schema.xml?

From what I can see, I think you should change your backslashes in each of the setup paths to forward slashes, as they refer to specific places within the SharePoint application on IIS.

If you have the form within the same folder as the List:

    <Form Type="NewForm" Url="NewForm.aspx" Path="CustomNewForm.aspx" WebPartZoneID="Main" UseLegacyForm="FALSE" />

or if you have your custom form within a Pages folder:

    <Form Type="NewForm" Url="NewForm.aspx" Path="~site/Pages/CustomNewForm.aspx" WebPartZoneID="Main" UseLegacyForm="FALSE" />


IMPORTANT:
Don't forget to right-click the custom form and select Properties,
then set Deployment Type: ElementFile
