I recently started to get into modding Amnesia and i'm starting to create my first story. I created a small room with furnishings and lighting with a "PlayerStartArea_01" box. I created the correct file paths and added in setting.cfg and the .lang files.

Added in the maps folder with my map and an .hps file. When i try to load the story ingame it crashes on my with the following error:

Quote:Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module
MSVCR71.dll


If you need my lang, hps, cfg files i can post them.

Thank you for your time!!

forgive me if this is the wrong area to post this!!

I dont think thats the same problem because i can play the campaign without any problems. The only time im getting this is when i tried to create my own story and my drivers are at the latest versions. Thanks for the reply!

WARNING: No resources element found in 'custom_stories/ExampleStory/extra_english.lang'
I'm sorry but that's beyond my very limited knowledge of scripting. I'm sure a senior member can help though.
Give me the .lang file. It seems like no resources can be found in your extra_english.lang.
Hmm.. try adding this to your extra_english.lang:
Code:
<RESOURCES>
</RESOURCES>
so it looks like this
Code:
<LANGUAGE>
    <RESOURCES>
    </RESOURCES>
    <CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">
        <Entry Name="Description">Description.</Entry>
    </CATEGORY>
</LANGUAGE>

I added in that code but its still crashes i check the log file to see what happened but it says there was no error all that was recorded was: "Loading complete ---------
Setting profile: 'Kylar' Path: 'C:\Users\Nico\Documents/Amnesia/Main/Kylar/'" and the file stops.

Thanks for your help :)

    <CATEGORY NAME="CustomStoryMain">
