Runtimer error loading Chancel

[Rarnick]

First crash I've experienced, and near the end of the game I believe.

Each time I try to enter the Chancel I get the following...

Runtime Error!
This application has requestsed the runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more info.

Edit...

Sometimes the runtime error message isn't displayed. Instead, the game (I think it's the game anyway) begins running some sort of debugger or error reporter after the crash. This also crashes at 2% complete.

Anyone running into similar issue / know a possible fix?

Tried loading an earlier save, but no luck there.

Post the hpl.log from My Documents/Amnesia

You can probably solve it by re-installing the game, sounds as if some files are corrupt or missing.

[Rarnick]

Thanks for the help. Hope this is what you wanted.

Greek to me. Look like something a reinstall might fix? Guess I could just copy and paste the .sav files into the user file after reinstall?

Such a great game. Hoping for a fix and some closure.

Re-install does not delete the saved games so I think that is the best bet.

Is this on Steam? If so try the verify cache function or what it is called, that checks your data files and re-download those that does not appear to be correct.

[Rarnick]

Thanks for the support. Reinstall fixed.

Just finished the game. Looking forward to your next!
