External HPL 2 use?

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hello! I was just wondering if I could use the HPL 2 engine without Amnesia. I want to make a game but I dont want it to be a custom story. Is it possible to create an exe to play the game created with the hpl2 engine? How can I do this?

Thanks!

I don't think it's possible with the mod tools provided. Guess you'd need a special version of the engine from Frictional, like the one thechineseroom are working with.... But what do I know?

I'm also wondering - If you want to make an entirely different game instead of an Amnesia Mod, what can hpl do for you that another engine like, say, Unreal can't? The Unreal Development Kit (UDK) is a free download, has great documentation and a big community. Same goes for example for Unity. And both are probably way easier to handle than hpl...
