Amnesia won't start at all - pagb666 - 07-09-2011
Just bought it off Steam, when I try to run it, I get... nothing at all! Steam says I'm playing nothing, no new processes in windows7, nothing.
I tried to run the launcher directly and it said that msvcp71.dll was missing, downloaded it and then it said glut32.dll was missing, downloaded it and then ir said yet another dll was missing... Double checked the game folder and there were no dependencies to be installed there. Why you don't you add them to the steam release in first instance? ¬¬
Oh, and my drivers and everything are great and up to date.

do a file integrity check

Please avoid noob-proof troubleshooting, already done that, twice... There are dependencies missing in the release.

In my Steam install, every file is present. Don't download it from the net, they should be there. It might be a Steam issue if integrity cache doesn't give an error.

if this is Amnesia, why is it at the Penumbra Section?
