Try going to your Documents\Amnesia\Main and fetch the hpl.log file and post it here.

i have an HPL file... under my map : amnesia The dark descent... where my launcher is placed and it says :

ERROR: Unable to open config file 'ptest'! Invalid filepointer returned!

Do you have the game on Steam or retail? How are you starting the game?

It looks like you're trying to start it with a start flag of "ptest" which is normally the Justine game, but the file name is incomplete. It needs to point to config/ptest_main_init.cfg in order to actually load that config file, however Justine should be ran through the launcher to make sure you get all the extra settings applied.

If you have it on Steam, perhaps you have an invalid launch option set.

it's not steam.. i have an launcher Shortcut....
if i click on it... launcher will come... and yes there is JUSTINE in the game... but i open the dark descent... i DIDN'T do ANYTHING! i really don't understand how this came..! i played yesterday! and then i was gone (to friend) and when i was back it doesn't work... nobody was at home! or can this settings change by itself ?! but on first of all... how to fix it ? :S

Try making a new shortcut maybe. It could be that your shortcut is set to start with an addictional flag.

i can't.... my official launcher DOESN'T work... if i click nothing happens..and if i click on Amnesia to open it SO FAST without launcher it says no config file..

[Mudbill]

From where did you get the game? Where is it installed? You said that the launcher opens when you click the shortcut, but you're also saying the launcher doesn't work. In what way does it not work?

[Amnesiaplayer]

normallyif iclick a launcher appears... so i can change some settings... but now it DOESN'T OPEN and if i click on AMNESIA to open it Direct it says can't load config file...

Have you purchased the game yet? Or are you still using a pirated copy?
