Noob alert! How do I get the level editor? - AmeixKon - 12-21-2011 I'm just starting to learn how to create custom stories, and I'm just starting to get things set up, and I'm having some issues. Namely getting the level editor; what I mean is I get the zip file downloaded and I extract the files to the right folder, but after that I don't know what to do. I'm stuck. What do I do? Thanks for the help! ~Amei RE: Noob alert!

Thanks for the help!Where did you extract the files? And what version did you get of Amnesia; Retail or steam? RE: Noob alert!

If you did that then you should just be able to open it via leveleditor.exe in the amnesia directory.(12-21-2011, 01:57 PM)flamez3 Wrote:I got the files off of the Frictional Games wiki and I have the Steam version.(12-21-2011, 01:34 PM)AmeixKon Wrote: I'm just starting to learn how to create custom stories, and I'm just starting to get things set up, and I'm having some issues.

Now when I try to run the application named "LevelEditor" a system error pops up and says that the SDL.dll is missing from my computer. This obviously a problem with my computer, and not the program or the process. How do I fix this?(12-21-2011, 02:02 PM)AmeixKon Wrote:So did you put the files in the amnesia directory?

Unless you're truly missing the file, then it sounds like you didn't extract it at the right location. You sure you extracted the HPL Editor Suite at Steam\steamapps\common\amnesia the dark descent?

You might have it installed somewhere else.
