The .bat file keeps crashing on me. It stops responding before the BugCrasher can read the crash!

+I've edited the configs to dp_neo_(insert_config_file)
+I've edited the .bat file
+I've edited the launcher to the 1.3 launcher
+I've tried to look in the .lang files but to no success

Here is my main_init file:

<ConfigFiles
Resources = "test_mod/dpneo_resources.cfg"
Materials = "materials.cfg"

Game = "dp_neo/config/dpneo_game.cfg"
Menu = "dp_neo/config/dpneo_menu.cfg"
PreMenu = "config/dpneo_pre_menu.cfg"
Demo = "config/demo.cfg"

DefaultMainSettings = "dp_neo/config/dpneo_default_main_settings.cfg"

DefaultMainSettingsLow = "launcher/default_main_settings_low.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsMedium = "launcher/default_main_settings_medium.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsHigh = "launcher/default_main_settings_high.cfg"


DefaultUserSettings = "config/default_user_settings.cfg"
DefaultUserKeys = "config/default_user_keys.cfg"

DefaultBaseLanguage = "base_english.lang"
DefaultGameLanguage = "english.lang"
/>

<Directories
MainSaveFolder = "DPNeo"

BaseLanguageFolder = "test_mod/config/"
GameLanguageFolder = "test_mod/config/lang/"

CustomStoryPath = "custom_stories"
/>

<Variables
GameName = "DP Neo"
/>

<StartMap
File = "dp_room.map"
Folder = "dp_neo/maps/"
Pos = "WakeUp_1"
/>

Any ideas?

BaseLanguageFolder = "test_mod/config/"
GameLanguageFolder = "test_mod/config/lang/"

A mod crashes if it cannot find an english file (or if it hasnt been written correctly). Have you forgotten to edit this?

Yes, I have forgotten and no, it hasn't worked... it kept on crashing!

bring the batch

Is this an issue with the bat file itself or with Amnesia after the bat file launches it?

Nope it isn't the batch file, if it was, it wouldn't open the Amnesia window.

I'm gonna throw a bone and say it's possibly your english.lang? The game will crash after the settings window if the english.lang has an error.

Just to check, anyways, you can use the Lang Editor tool that's been going around the forums.

According to the editor I have:

What do I do?

You're saying the game is crashing but you haven't posted the hpl.log yet. You should probably get to that. It should say why it crashed.

HPL Exit was successful!

Is this it? Because the window that says what happened to the crash didn't load up. It was on 33% and then it said "Amnesia.exe is not working".
