Looks like you're trying to run the game in a 0x0 resolution, according to the log file.
Try navigating to Documents/Amnesia/Main/ and deleting your main_settings.cfg file, and then running Amnesia through the Launcher file and configure your settings as you see fit! To do so, right click Amnesia - The Dark Descent in your Steam Library and select the Run Settings Launcher option.

I believe it says 0x0 when it's in fullscreen.
I suggest trying to run the game in windowed mode as I feel like it's more stable in certain cases.

hi, this did not work for me. ive done this multiple times as well to make sure i did it right. it still crashes just as soon as i start it up, ive tried every setting possible in both full screen and windowed modes, and it crashes instantly without even showing up for more than a few seconds as a black screen as well as a "retrieving and analyzing crash data" window that goes to 25% then cuts out along with the crashed "game" screen.
im attaching my main_settings.cfg file just in case i did do something wrong, apology's for any inconvenience in my problem or stupidity on my part.

Could you crash the game in windowed mode, then send the new hpl.log file?
