Saving - mrmoosebo - 09-16-2010 I have recently Purchased Amnesia, the Dark Descent, and realized after i played for 2 hours and tried to play again the next day; my game did not save. I thought maybe it was the download (I got it from Steam.) So i re-downloaded this game. So i try playing it again, Same thing happens after i play it for a long period of time. How do i fix this problem? It's a hassle to continue playing this way. RE: Saving - jens - 09-16-2010 Can you go to My Documents/Amnesia/ and see if there is an hpl.log file there that you can upload here. Chances are that the folder might no exist as it sounds as though there is a permission problem here, where the game can't access the My Documents folder correctly.

You're right, I don't see anything with the name "hpl.log" There is an hpl text document and an hpl_update. That is it. RE: Saving - jens - 09-16-2010 Yes, it is the hpl text document I want, if you turn on so it shows extensions you will see it has .log as extension!

I do not know why but the location the game wants to save the profile and saved games in is really strange, it is "Users\Cameron\Documents\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Do cuments\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Do cuments\Downloads\Documents\Downloads\Documents/Amnesia/" It should be something like "Users\Cameron\Documents\Amnesia\". I do not think I have seen this before so at the moment have no advice on how to solve it. Is there something special about your Windows configuration that you think could cause this?

And i do know about that. Document files on this computer are messed up and it is very odd. RE: Saving - jens - 09-16-2010 If that is the case then I do not think you can fix the saving without fixing the Documents folder in general for the computer.

Thank you for the insight. The problem WAS actually the documents folder. I went into admin and fixed everything so now saving actually works. |
