Custom Story Crash [HAVING THE PROBLEM ONCE AGAIN]

[RawkBandMan]

Hello. I made a kinda beta for my map im making, but whenever I try to play it in Amnesia: The Dark Descent, it crashes and gives me the following blackbox error:

Amnesia.exe caused an EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module
MSVCR71.dll at 001B:7C3417FB, strlen()+0038 byte(s)


I tried messing around with my scripts, but that isn't fixing it. any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

check the hpl.log file in My Documents/Amnesia/ and you should probably see some error hinting what could be wrong.

I found this line and I think this may be what's wrong.

WARNING: No resources element found in 'custom_stories/Test/extra_english.lang'

What could I do to fix that?


EDIT: I think I fixed it by putting <RESOURCES> and </RESOURCES> in the extra_english.lang, but it still crashes, but the hpl.log says nothing about any warnings or whatever. the final line says something about my profile being loaded. Ill post my extra_english.lang and hpl.log here

does the ItemDesc_RockingKey have to be the name of the file of the key (rockingkey_1)???

1. Your resources are empty, you can just remove those.
2. You need to make a category for each subset. 1 for your mod info, 1 for your inventory, ..
Also, be sure to copy it EXACT as it is on the wiki.

Look at my example:
<CATEGORY Name="CustomStoryMain">

and notice how you have an > too many. Same with your <Entry>...

If not, what EXCACTLY do I need to change?

You switched around 2 accolades in UsedKeyOnDoor() :p

{
}

not

}
{

EDIT: brrr, also, leave your function name like this:
void UsedKeyOnDoor(string &in asItem, string &in asEntity)

Those things in the brackets are called parameters and they will be filled in when you call the function.

IT FINNALY WORKS! Buuuutttt... Sorry If Im making you mad with all my problems.

When I pick up my key, it's supposed to say Rocking Key right? Well I picked it up and it said machine room key instead. and It said It was a key for the machine room instead of a door. I went and tried the key on the door, but It said "Cannot use this item anyway!"
Sorry I'm being a burden again.

[Tottel]

Make sure the item is named "RockingKey" in the editor.

EDIT: Wauw, I'm being slow today. Also don't forget to close your inventory category again (right above </LANGUAGE>.
