Post: RE: HPL2 Editor Black Screen

I've done all that you suggested and still nothing :( I guess I'll wait for another Intel update and see if that unintentionally fixes it for me. Thanks for your help though.

Okay I'll let you know if it has done anything. Ran it and did a reboot, nothing's changed.

It is a laptop computer. The map viewer works perfectly. The particle editor and model editor give the same black screen results. Must be something to do with the type of interface the editor is using...

well this is the hpl.log file from my amnesia/main folder. This is from starting Amnesia and then quitting at the main menu, and this is with the latest drivers that allow Amnesia to display properly.

I installed the previous driver. Results are exactly as expected: Editor works, Amnesia doesn't. EDIT: I think it definitely is a driver problem, as the settings are the same and the editor STARTED ...

I've done all that but still a black screen. Although, my hpl.log now only says it cannot find LevelEditor.cfg in my HPL2 folder. Thanks for the help so far.
