I cannot set up a development environment - phern - 04-19-2011
Hello everyone. I got an issue with setting up dev environment using tutorial from http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/amnesia/devenvguide.
I did everything exactly as said, and game crashes at the beginning says that "Failed to load config file!"
This is my main_settings.cfg file:
PHP Code:
<Main ShowMenu="false" ExitMenuDirectly="true" SaveConfig="false" DefaultProfileName="dev_user" StartLanguage="polish.lang" UpdateLogActive="false" LoadDebugMenu="true" ScreenShotExt="jpg" ShowPreMenu="false" />
<Graphics TextureQuality="0" TextureFilter="2" TextureAnisotropy="16.000000" Gamma="1.000000" Shadows="1" SSAOActive="true" SSAOSamples="8" GBufferType="0" NumOfGBufferTextures="3" SSAOResolution="0" WorldReflection="true" Refraction="true" ShadowsActive="true" ShadowQuality="2" ShadowResolution="2" ParallaxQuality="0" ParallaxEnabled="true" EdgeSmooth="false" ForceShaderModel3And4Off="false" PostEffectBloom="true" PostEffectImageTrail="true" PostEffectSepia="true" PostEffectRadialBlur="true" PostEffectInsanity="true" />
<Engine LimitFPS="true" SleepWhenOutOfFocus="true" />
<Screen Width="1920" Height="1200" FullScreen="true" Vsync="true" />
<Physics PhysicsAccuracy="2" UpdatesPerSec="60.000000" />
<MapLoad FastPhysicsLoad="false" FastStaticLoad="false" FastEntityLoad="false" />
<Sound Device="0" Volume="1.000000" MaxChannels="32" StreamBuffers="4" StreamBufferSize="262144" />
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with it?
Thank you in advance.

u only changed the main_settings.cfg (My Documents/Amnesia/Main) ?
u could test the command 1 by 1, to see at what command the problem is
so change 1 command and test the game, again change 1 command, test the game, etc.

I already did. It starts crashing when I change ShowMenu="false".
And no, main settings are not the only thing I did, I also changed user settings inside dev_user folder, just like they said on wikia.

Did you put what map to load?

Yes, I did, although I don't really know if I should leave startpos empty.
Now it looks like this:
<Map File=“my_map.map” Folder=“MyMaps/” StartPos="" />
I inserted MyMaps folder into map folder, as said on wikia and also created a map named "my_map.map".

That seems okay then. No need to put a StartPos.
Remember, if you put it to showmenu=false, you can only load maps from the main maps folder, not your custom folder. So your maps would have to be under maps/MyMaps in the main amnesia directory as opposed to custom_stories/MyMaps.

I had my map in maps/MyMaps and its not working.
Maybe I need to set some kind of spawn point on a map?

....Yea. That'd do it.
Under areas in the editor, there's a startpos area. Just put that where you want to start.
