HOW TO INSTALL OLITD

Spoiler below!

OLitD is a full conversion mod - it does NOT go into your custom_stories folder. It must have its files merged with the folders in your Amnesia root.

If this is your first installation of OLitD, DO NOT OVERWRITE ANY FILES. I have organized my custom assets into separate folders marked OLD_ or olitd_. This makes for an straightforward un-installation process, and avoids any conflicts with other assets from conversion mods or custom stories.

Future releases of OLitD (bug fixes, patches, etc) will ONLY contain the updated map and script files. You WILL have to overwrite the old maps, but you can always choose to delete the outdated map pack and install the new one, just to make sure you aren't overwriting anything.

FULL CONVERSION INSTALLATION (first release):

1) Download the file from any of the available links
2) Extract the contents of it directly in to your Amnesia: TDD root - NOT into your custom_stories folder
3) You will be asked to merge the folders. Click 'Yes'.
4) First installation should NOT require overwriting. If it asks for it, say NO
5) Once extracted, you can create a shortcut to the olitd.bat file for easier access.
5.5) Download the most recent patch and install it accordingly.
6) Launch the game by opening the olitd.bat file.
7) Make sure your graphics settings are right (they will likely be set to default)
8) Once in-game, set all of your keybinds to what you want, they will have been reset.
9) Enjoy!


CUSTOM STORY INSTALLATION

NOTE: The custom story format is NOT ideal - I have edited many features of the game, and you will not get the optimal experience using a custom story format. This is only for people who experience issues with the full conversion format.

1) Extract the contents of the download pack to your Amnesia root.
2) Merge the folders when you are asked to by clicking 'Yes'. Do NOT overwrite any files if this is your FIRST installation.
2.5) Download the most recent patch and install it accordingly.
3) Launch the story via the custom story menu in Amnesia: TDD.
4) Enjoy!



MAP PATCHES

1) OPTIONAL: Delete the old maps/script files.
2) Extract the map pack folder to maps/olitd/.
3) You will be asked to merge the folders. Click 'Yes'.
4) If you did step 1, you will not need to overwrite anything. If you didn't do step 1, you will need to overwrite all of the outdated files. Click 'Yes' to overwrite.
5) Launch the olitd.bat file and enjoy!

A beautiful trailer!

I wish I could make trailers like that. :/

I'll make sure I give the custom story a try... or will it be a full conversion? :p

I'll make sure I give the custom story a try... or will it be a full conversion? :p

If I figure out how to make one, I will

Yeah I've tried that but it wasn't workin' for me. Maybe I'll shoot Russ Money a tell and ask for his help I know he made a successful full conversion.

I actually got one working, but I couldn't exactly customize the pre menu the way I wanted. :/
