Amnesia Segfaults when leaving Laboratory or enter Archives

[xentalion]

Hello

I've just installed Amnesia and discovered that the game crashes after leaving the laboratory for the first time.

The first time this happened, I went to the Archives door and the game immediately segmentation faulted (when it tried to load the Archives level)

The second time, (I think since the autosave assumed I was in the Archives) the game segfaulted upon clicking Continue.

So I restarted the game, and clicked continue and I returned to the scene where you leave the laboratory for the first time.

I noticed that there was a similar issue, but I have full write permissions for everything in the game's folder.

I ran GDB on it and this is the output I recieved:

Code: (Select All)

Are you running 64bit?

If possible try running 32 bit and see if the problem remains.

[RlyDontKnow]

might be a similiar issue to the one I had? http://www.frictionalgames.com/forum/thread-3903.html

it seemed to me that some node of the scenery got corrupted somehow - starting over fixed it, however I probably didn't touch exactly the same things.

Oh yes, I am running 64 bit. Sorry for not mentioning that.

The 32 bit version does not crash. Thank you!

[Urkle]

can you provide a savegame file with instructions to recreate the crash on 64bit?

Unfortunately, not right this second. Amnesia overwrote the old save files I think (though I could have deleted them by accident).

Once I get a chance, I'll start the game from the beginning and get them to you.

Thanks!

Friend,

I'm having the same problem, it has been reported here in the forum. Now the question is whether the company will release a patch .....

If you read the topic, you can see it's solved by installing 32bit version of the game.

If you tell me how to locate the savegame file I can send to you mine. I have 64 bit version, and it crashes when I try to enter the Archives

Is there any coding difference between the 32 and 64 bit versions or only compilation? I don't see why 64 bit should crash and 32 bit don't.

I will not switch to x32bits because of this game ... the company must have a solution!
