Amnesia Custom Story Crash - !!!!!Please help!!!! - Tiiwh - 03-05-2012

Hi Angel

So I am having a huge problem, I made a new custom story and I was scripting and editing as normal. And then I decided to change the background map, you know when the game starts. And ever since I did that I can't open the freaking custom story file in the game, when I doubleclick the name of it, it crashes the whole game!

And I did try making a new custom story and doubleclick it, it does work, and when I play the orginial game it also works. It's just this stupid custom story that doesn't work!

This is what it says:

I really need help with it. I'm stuck and I have really been working hard with this one. Sad

I think it doesn't have anything to do with my hps file since it doesn't start "working" until I enter my custom story, but I can't even enter it. I can't even get to the description of the custom story. It just shuts down...

Do you have any custom entities in your map? Also, what does the hpl.log file say (located at Documents/Amnesia/Main)?

I do have some custom entities in my map (I assume you mean like stuff other people made), but they weren't a problem before...

I think there is some sort of problem with my MSVCP71.dll file in my redist folder. It keep telling me that's the issue.

That's not the reason. The game is likely just failing to parse something, like a script, .lang file or something in the map. I won't be able to figure it out until i see your custom story files.
