Level editor crashes when placing entities

**burge4150** · 02-13-2014, 01:52 AM

I'm having a level editor issue. I can build floors and walls and ceilings without any issue, but when I start placing entities, the editor always crashes. Sometimes I can place one or two with no issue, but ultimately it always ends in a crash. Here is the log file:

I have deleted the temp and thumbnail folders in my documents, that did not fix the issue.

What type of entities?

**Mudbill** · 02-13-2014, 08:27 AM

Are you able to navigate to this path it's referring to? \Hpl_2\tools\editors\common\

Have you tried reinstalling the editors?

**burge4150** · 02-13-2014, 02:51 PM

I have reinstalled the editor with no success.

As for navigating to that path, it's not even a real harddrive location, notice the /'s are backwards from a directory path.

Also, it seems the crash doesn't occur just when placing entities. I opened an existing Amnesia game map to look around it, and after scrolling around for a moment it crashed with the same type or error.

The maps, however, do not crash until entities or doors or such things exist on them. Walls and floors do not cause the issue.

**Mudbill** · 02-13-2014, 03:39 PM

Windows uses back slashes for directory paths. If you type in C:\ in Explorer, it arrives at your C drive (as expected). I have noticed that going to Documents showed up to me as "C:\User\Documents/whatever" where it suddenly changed slash. Dunno what that's about.
Mac OS uses forward slashes for paths though. It also seems the Amnesia configs use them, regardless of OS. I'm kinda confused about that.

As for the issue here, I am really not sure. It sounds like the editors are missing something they need in order to process these entities. Doing a complete reinstall of both Amnesia and the editors I only suggest as a last option. Not having to reinstall would be preferred though. Perhaps someone else knows anything about this, cause I have not encountered it before.

Perhaps you can try wiping your HPL folder in Documents. I believe it is generated when you launch the editors, and since they're in a different location, they aren't uninstalled or replaced if you reinstall the editors in the Amnesia directory.

**burge4150** · 02-13-2014, 04:22 PM

I did wipe the HPL folder, it didn't seem to fix the issue. I haven't reinstalled amnesia yet, I suppose that's my next thing to try.

If those directories are real directories, I can't find them. I don't know where the \Hpl_2\tools\editors\common\ folder is located. It's not in the game directory and it's not in the My Documents HPL folder either.

**Mudbill** · 02-13-2014, 05:28 PM

Yeah, I can't say I'm familiar with that path. I have not actually seen it before.

If you are to attempt the reinstall and it turns out to not work, then I have no idea what it could be. They worked before, right? Could it be an issue with your computer? I doubt it is, but I don't know.

**burge4150** · 02-13-2014, 06:07 PM

I can't say it has ever worked before because I only recently discovered Amnesia and it's editor.

I have the GoG (Good old Games) version of Amnesia, not sure if anyone else here has had success or issues using that particular download.

**Mudbill** · 02-13-2014, 06:12 PM

As far as I know, the editors are confirmed to work with Retail and Steam copies. I'm unsure about others.

**burge4150** · 02-14-2014, 01:15 AM

Anybody else have any insight? I have reinstalled the game and the editor with no fix in sight.

I can load any game map that came with the game, but as soon as I scroll the camera around a bit I get the same crash.
