Gameplay problem - No Menu, can't save the game - Adamek1926 - 10-25-2012

Hi y'all, I've been having this problem since I got new PC. I installed my bought version of Amnesia, and when I start up the game, there is no main menu launched. I get right on the campaign, and whhen I pause the game, there isn't the ,,Save and quit" button. It is really starting to p*ss me off. So if some of you could help, I would really appreciate it. (PS: When I start the game, there are no Developer logos as usual)

If you got the game from Steam, right click on the game and verify the integrity of the game cache. You can do this by going on to the games properties and clicking local files. Otherwise, you might want to try reinstalling. Also, please post HPL.log and system specs. You can find the HPL.log in your documents/Amnesia/main It will be there. Just copy its contents and comment in this thread

From the Game shop (That kind of shop I can trust). I also tried to install downloaded game, but same result. And reinstalling isn't working either...

Try running with lower settings. It may just be too much stress on your GPU. Also, I heard that using 1024x768 can help with some display options.

However, it looks like your graphics card has the required OpenGL version and can clearly get past the launcher without a crash. There is a chance that some game files on the disc may have been corrupted. Sometimes that happens. I'm assuming that you bought the game as a disc in person because you said you got it from a game shop that you trust

I tried those settings.. Still nothing. No Main Menu, only the campaign I can't even save. And yeah, I did. I already got a bunch of games from there

What Operating System are you using?

Windows Vista (OMFG why?) But I was using vista in the times when it was working. My PC had some Graphics card problems and it had to be fixed, do you think that is causing the problems ?
