Why does my bat file crash when I launch it

I click it screen blackens for a second then it crashes and says:


"A crash has occured.Please wait while gathering system information."


I dont see anything wrong in the custom main init either:



<ConfigFiles
Resources = "resources.cfg"
Materials = "materials.cfg"

Game = "config/game.cfg"
Menu = "config/menu.cfg"
PreMenu = "config/pre_menu.cfg"
Demo = "config/demo.cfg"

DefaultMainSettings = "config/default_main_settings.cfg"

DefaultMainSettingsLow = "launcher/default_main_settings_low.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsMedium = "launcher/default_main_settings_medium.cfg"
DefaultMainSettingsHigh = "launcher/default_main_settings_high.cfg"


DefaultUserSettings = "config/default_user_settings.cfg"
DefaultUserKeys = "config/default_user_keys.cfg"

DefaultBaseLanguage = "base_english.lang"
DefaultGameLanguage = "english.lang"
/>

<Directories
MainSaveFolder = "Main"

BaseLanguageFolder = "config/"
GameLanguageFolder = "config/rise_ashes_lang/"

CustomStoryPath = "custom_stories"
/>

<Variables
GameName = "Amnesia - The Dark Descent -"
/>

<StartMap
File = "rfa.map"
Folder = "maps/rise_ashes/"
Pos = "bedstart"
/>

RE: Why does my bat file crash when I launch it

If there was anything wrong with the configuration or if the file path to the configuration was wrong, the game would tell you that it couldn't load the configuration. It is possible that the main menu map has something wrong with it, or that you set up your (default_)main_settings.cfg in a way that makes the game crash, or something "random."

Not sure. Maybe the hpl.log can provide insight on the issue.
