Script causing game to randomly crash (No FATAL ERROR) - RawkBandMan - 05-08-2011

When I went to go to the 2nd map of my custom, it crashed immediatly, no FATAL ERROR code or anything, but the hpl.log gave me this

ERROR: Couldn't build script 'c:/program files/steam/steamapps/common/amnesia the dark descent/custom_stories/Escape Hell (DEMO)/maps/ch01/NorthCells.hps'!

Here is my script

Spoiler below!

void OnStart()
{
if(ScriptDebugOn())
{
GiveItemFromFile("lantern", "lantern.ent");
SetPlayerLampOil(100);
}
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "BruteWalkAway", "ActivateBrute", true, 1);
AddEntityCollideCallback("servant_brute_1", "Disappear", "FadeEnemy", true, 1);
}

void ActivateBrute(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetEntityActive("servant_brute_1", true);
AddTimer("Freeze", 2.0f, "FreezePlayer");
SetLightVisible("torch_static01_6", false);
SetLightVisible("torch_static01_7", false);
SetLightVisible("torch_static01_8", false);

AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_1", 0.5f, "");
AddEnemyPatrolNode("servant_brute_1", "PathNodeArea_2", 0.5f, "");

}

void FreezePlayer(string &in asTimer)
{
SetPlayerActive(false);
StartPlayerLookAt("servant_brute_1", "", "", "");
AddTimer("Look", 5.0f, "LookAt");
}

void LookAt(string &in asTimer)
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
SetPlayerActive(true);
}

void FadeEnemy(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
FadeEnemyToSmoke("servant_brute_1", false);
}

Thank you!

Now I need to make credits for my level. Any help on how?

RE: Where can I find water? - Roenlond - 05-08-2011

Credits are made in the extra_english.lang file.

I do not have any example here, but I will try to write from my memory.

in extra_english.lang:

<CATEGORY Name ="Ending">
<Entry Name ="StartCredits">
Title of Story[br]
Made By:[br]
blablabla[br]
</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

and to call it, use this in your functions, preferably void OnLeave()

void OnLeave()
{
StartCredits("musicfiletoplay", true, "Ending", "StartCredits", 0);
}

That should do the trick, tell me if you have any troubles Smile

RE: Where can I find water? - RawkBandMan - 05-08-2011

Thanks guys! I just have 2 more things. 1.For the credits, to I put the void OnLeave() in my mapname.hps? and 2. I tried to make a key unlock the door, and it worked. But, the name for it is not showing up. It just says "Picked Up" No name or anything, then in the inventory, there is no name of the key, or a description.

heres my .hps and my extra_english.cfg

Answer to the key question:

You need to select your key in your level editor and go into the entity tab where you will find the CustomSubItemTypeName where you write the name of the key (from youre extraenglish.cfg file)
