Editors wont work following Steam update - serbusfish - 04-18-2016

There was a 5.3mb update for Amnesia today and now none of the ediors are working. When I try and load them it says sdl.dll is missing. I have tweeted Frictional about this, no idea if they will respond. Is anyone else having this issue?

EDIT:

Frictional just replied on twitter, says they are going to look into the issue.

A temporary solution, if it still persists, is to grab the SDL.dll from here: https://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-7878-post-70551.html#pid70551

Put it in the same folder as where Amnesia.exe is located.

Cheers pal, but one of the guys from Frictional rolled out an update and sorted it, was very impressed with how quick it was done actually.

Rather than waste another thread I have another query, is it possible to open the AMFP maps in the editor? Because at the moment when I try it loads for a bit then crashes.

Have you imported all the assets? I'm unsure if they are possible to open considering AMFP uses a modified HPL2, so it surely contains things HPL2 cannot interpret.

I copied the entities, static objects and textures. Would I need anything else? Im sure I saw a youtube video with someone opening the first level in the editor so it must be possible?

Yeah I suspect that it will only ignore what cannot be used and that it should otherwise open it fine. Perhaps a recent update broke something though. Otherwise you might be missing something. I can't really say as I've never opened those maps myself.
