***Edit - This is using Steam, BTW. Actual .APP package version reports itself as 1.0.1***

After the initial try, followed the forum trail and deleted config and went with defaults. I have also tried low setting with everything dropped low, and windowed mode as well.

Did you try having steam re-download the demo? (by deleting the local cache or even by verifying local files.)

You can do that by right/control clicking on the game in and choosing properties. Then from the "Local Files" tab pick verify integrity of game cache or delete local game content.

My first thought is it didn't download correctly to your system and it is somehow corrupted. I'll investigate further here.

I'm experiencing the same problem. I tried downloading the demo from one of the sites, and it crashed on launch. I tried getting it from Steam, and experienced the same thing. I tried downloading it from yet another, different, site, and it still happened.

I receive the error message: "Could not load main init file: config/main_init.cfg"

ok, that's a different error actually.. (the non-steam demo) What version of Mac OS X are you running RevJackal?

The steam issue is Real and I'm fighting with the Steam tools right now to figure out what broke.

I have sent off a fix for the steam demo hopefully it'll get applied soon.

As for the non-steam demo. RevJackal, can you run the "Console" application on your mac and go to the "Console Messages" then try and run Amnesia Demo and after it "dies" send me all the lines that have com.frictionalgames in it.

hmm.. so you are getting it when you launch the game, and not the launcher itself...

Can you attach the hpl.log file that would be in your home directory under "Library/Application Preferences/Amnesia/MainDemo ?

the only hpl.log file I could find on my computer says the following (it's also attached to this post):

ERROR: Unable to open config file 'config/main_init.cfg'! Invalid filepointer returned!

In another thread discussing the same problem (I think), someone said the integrated Intel graphics card cannot run the game. I posted my graphics card info a few posts up, but here it is again:

Am I out of luck?
