My friend is getting a Black Box - RawkBandMan - 01-08-2012

My friend keeps getting this Black Box when playing his TC. The game works fine, as long as he isn't playing his TC.

Code:
Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module Amnesia.exe at 001B:004A5838

Please help him.

It's impossible to know the cause without his TC.

He should look in the hpl.log file to see what the last few lines says for clues as to what might be wrong.


RE: My friend is getting a Black Box - RawkBandMan - 01-08-2012

Here are the errors. If you say try to verify, he's already done that. There is lots of missing stuff


Code:

He does not have the file for the font in his TC, nor does he have a section in his english.lang to match the Pre-menu's needed messages.

Can you post his resources.cfg?

RE: My friend is getting a Black Box - RawkBandMan - 01-08-2012

He is using the original font that came with the game, and as for the Pre-Menu's messages, I'd have to check with him

Here's his resources.cfg
Code:

Does he have the "menu_gui_default" font in his font folder?

RE: My friend is getting a Black Box - RawkBandMan - 01-08-2012

It's in his fonts/eng/ folder, as is mine and my TC works fine :|

Also, we are adding those WelcomeMessage01-06 into his english.lang at the moment.

It's Okay, we finished the messages he wants to use in his story, and the hpl.log changed back to this.
