Help, please,,, - clonerex340 - 05-24-2013
I'm making a FC called Amnesia ~Lost in the Dark~, and whenever I try to launch it and test it out, I get a message that says it couldn't load the main_init settings. Can anyone please help so I can get past this?
RE: Help, please,,, - PutraenusAlivius - 05-24-2013
Make sure the location of the main_init file is correct.
RE: Help, please,,, - The chaser - 05-24-2013
Post your main_init file, the error isn't usually the file itself: If you add a wrong .lang directory, it will say that too.

This is my main_init file:
<ConfigFiles
Resources = "test_mod_Lost in the Dark/resources.cfg"
Materials = "materials.cfg"
Game = "config/game.cfg"
Menu = "config/menu.cfg"
PreMenu = "config/pre_menu.cfg"
Demo = "config/demo.cfg"
DefaultMainSettings = "config/default_main_settings.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsLow = "launcher/default_main_settings_low.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsMedium = "launcher/default_main_settings_medium.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsHigh = "launcher/default_main_settings_high.cfg"
DefaultUserSettings = "config/default_user_settings.cfg"
DefaultUserKeys = "config/default_user_keys.cfg"
DefaultBaseLanguage = "base_english.lang"
DefaultGameLanguage = "english.lang"
/>
<Directories
MainSaveFolder = "Amnesia ~Lost in the Dark~"
BaseLanguageFolder = "config/"
GameLanguageFolder = "config/lang_main/"
CustomStoryPath = "custom_stories"
/>
<Variables
GameName = "Amnesia ~ Lost in the Dark ~"
/>
<StartMap
File = "00_intro.map"
Folder = "maps/test_mod_Lost in the Dark"
Pos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
/>
RE: Help, please,,, - PutraenusAlivius - 06-09-2013
It's "test_mod_Lost_in_the_Dark/maps". It can't accept spaces and it's backward.

Okay. If anything else goes wrong, I'll post it here. Thanks
Just making sure; Does this look correct?
<ConfigFiles
Resources = "test_mod_Lost_in_the_Dark/resources.cfg"
Materials = "materials.cfg"
Game = "config/game.cfg"
Menu = "config/menu.cfg"
PreMenu = "config/pre_menu.cfg"
Demo = "config/demo.cfg"
DefaultMainSettings = "config/default_main_settings.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsLow = "launcher/default_main_settings_low.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsMedium = "launcher/default_main_settings_medium.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsHigh = "launcher/default_main_settings_high.cfg"
DefaultUserSettings = "config/default_user_settings.cfg"
DefaultUserKeys = "config/default_user_keys.cfg"
DefaultBaseLanguage = "base_english.lang"
DefaultGameLanguage = "english.lang"
/>
<Directories
MainSaveFolder = "Amnesia ~Lost in the Dark~"
BaseLanguageFolder = "config/"
GameLanguageFolder = "config/lang_main/"
CustomStoryPath = "custom_stories"
/>
<Variables
GameName = "Amnesia ~ Lost in the Dark ~"
/>
<StartMap
File = "00_intro.map"
Folder = "maps/test_mod_Lost_in_the_Dark/"
Pos = "PlayerStartArea_1"
If it's not, please tell me what I did wrong.

If it's correct, it will work...
But if it doesnt, make sure there is a /> at the end to close the StartMap category, only if it is needed of course.

I feel like I am getting closer and closer to playing, but I am getting the message "Could not load main init file: test_mod/config/main_init.config"
Can anyone explain how to solve this?

Isn't it:

?
