Installed Demo, ran once, has not run since - atmasoul16 - 03-26-2011

Hello,

I just recently installed the Amnesia Demo on my Linux box running Ubuntu 10.04.

I was successfully able to run the install and to get the game running the first time. I adjusted the sound setting, entered the game, exited since not sound was being produced, and every execution time since then, the game will not start.

I have attempted to uninstall/reinstall several times and nothing has produced any viable results. A couple of things I would like to note:

1. I have been installing the game to my /home/<username>/games/amnesia/AmnesiaDemo/
2. I have attempted installing both as root and as myself, but this has not seemed to change any results.
3. I did a look in some of my directories for the .log file, but have not been able to find it. What location is it stored in (since I figure it may point me in a better direction)?

I am fairly new to running Linux, so I am definitely liable to make mistakes.

Anything you can think of to help me out would be great. If you need more info, let me know.

Thanks!

there is a .frictionalgames folder in your home folder (. means it is hidden, you can turn on show hidden files in one of the menus in the file browser) I suggest you delete the whole folder and then try to run the game again, this will revert the settings to default.

That worked! Thanks!
