Okay, I did everything EXACTLY like you said (except naming it test_mod, I named it MG. I hope that's not the problem) And I still get an error when I try to start my game. Could I send you my file so you can check what the problem is?

Make sure the path is
redist/MG/
Maybe that what you did wrong?

I bought it on steam, so that should be steam/steamapps, etc. etc.
And what path? I added so many /MG/anything I don't know where

In MG/config/default_main_settings.cfg, change the settings to...

ShowPreMenu = False
Fullscreen = False
LimitFPS = False
VSync = True

--
In MG/config/resources.cfg, change the path to....
MG/main_menu
MG/maps
MG/flashbacks
Also, add these..
/MG/entities
/MG/static_objects
/MG/music
/MG/sounds
/MG/graphics
/MG/textures
/MG/gui

--
Make it, and place it at your FC folder with the extension of .bat.

Code: (Select All)

cd /d ..
Amnesia.exe test_mod/config/main_init.cfg

It is easy. Or just download the sample and change everything with the prefix
test_mod
with
MG

If i made the FC correctly, how do i use the custom assets in the Level Editor? And do i have to move the original asset to the FC folder?

I feel so stupid now -.- But it finally worked! Thank you!

How do i use the custom assets in the Level Editor? And do i also have to copy the original assets to the FC folder? Please, help!

I have custom folders withing the base directories (static_objects, entities, textures etc.) which I then move into my "Fullconversion folder" upon release.

The following is how I interpret it (doesn't necessarily have to be true):
You can also modify the "base" resources.cfg to include directories for your custom assets (for use in the level editor). You do not have to include the original assets in your FC folder. As I understand it your "FC" resources.cfg will include any folders listed within it (which include the base folders). If multiple entries of the same files occur - the directories listed first will be given priority. Eg.

-- YourFC\resources.cfg --
YourFC\models\lantern
models\lantern

Result: Your custom lantern will be used instead of the default lantern.

I assume that you can still use the hpllevel editor for the full conversion maps. Possibly a stupid question but I felt as if I should ask it anyway, sorry if it is irrelevant

Edit:it was a stupid question, level editor works fine.

Ok I did every single thing correctly in the tutorial that you presented. I started up the batch file and everything seemed to go ok. I got the launch window with no errors. When I start the game though, it gives me "Something went wrong!!! error"

This happens when I launch the custom story game it self.

Also the Exception Reason is this

"Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module
Amnesia.exe at 0023:005A3D12

Help please!

I had the same problem

Edit: Just had to download the pre-prepared files For some strange reason however, my main menu does not show the map it should. Instead it shows a very dark ceiling and that's about it.

Edit 2: I forgot to turn the camera around.

You see, some Full Conversions require you to enter the serial number to validate the game. Question is, how do i do that?

The same way you did it for the original game. If you want to avoid looking up the serial key, then copy the Documents/Amnesia/Main/installkey file into your full converion's user folder.
