Amnesia: Through the Portal (2.0 Expansion Released)

[Mapsnacker]

Hey I downloaded your story, followed the read me file and then started up the game but right when I try to pick up the lantern the game instantly crashes and I get a

Amnesia.exe caused a EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module Amnesia.exe at 0023:00550CF1

I also get this when I try to play any of my custom stories and it happens when I try to play the original game.

Uh..right I think I know how to pull up logs...

This is for Through the Portal

O.o Help?

I'm not an expert on the actual base engine of Amnesia. I would direct your question to the Technical Support forum since it isn't affecting only my map. Hopefully Frictional can help you out.

This was an absolutely AMAZING full conversion, Scott Jund.

By FAR one of the most gorgeous things I have seen come from the engine - you have some insane skills, sir. I loved every moment of it, and the ending was just so damn incredible. It took me way back.

Thank you for this, it was a treat. Something any Amnesia fan should experience to finally end the story.

I've just finished it, here's my two cents:

Spoiler below!

One very negative thing for me was the way of installation. On the first start via the batch file I had to reenter my serial key which I didn't have on top of my desk of course but dug somewhere in a folder on my FG store receit. Also, all the settings were reset back to default so I had to set them to my taste and restart the game. Is there no way to make this a "normal" custom story that goes into the custom story folder and is started from the vanilla game menu?

I really liked the general idea of escaping the strange realm and the pretty graphics (everything from the first map over the gloomy blue/red lights till the nice outdoor view)!

Unfortunately, it was too easy to escape this realm. When I had found that note about different realms I thought I would have to make my through each of them in order to escape back to "realm 4". Instead, I only had to get that one master orb? It was good though that after taking it the shadow chased me - but why does the shadow follow me over two maps but vanishes on the third? Also, in the middle of this room (with the realm 4 portl around the corner) there's an empty orb holder - what's it there for?

In the credits, what was that line "Cry, hope you got my name right" about? Was that meant to be a joke and is it my bad English that made me misinterpret it as being meant serious? Or was it really meant serious? Either way, I don't think it's a good line to have there.

That's it for now, now someone make a total conversion Alien-Amnesia with these superb graphics please.

Lol, Cry is ChaoticMonki on YouTube, he does a lot of custom story play throughs, i recommend watching him!

With that said I didn't see that in the credits, it may be because I missed one note, though!

I did however find that secret room - and it was amazing.

Quite damnly amazing and damnly isn't even a word.

Hey Cry, you should make a playthrough for this custom story. I have no idea what this secret room is.

Awwww yeahhh, can't wait to watch it. Also, I took the message involving you out in the first version because it took away from seriousness. But yeah, it basically mentioned that you must GET MY NAME RIGHT, I will not be...Joey..Joseph, was it? I forget.

[Kaizerwolf]

Hey man, I have to say, this custom story makes me cry tears of absolute awesomeness. It has to be hands down one of the best mods I've ever seen for this game, let alone other games! The quality of it is simply stunning, and the resemblance to an Elder Scrolls Oblivion world is pretty neat.

I do have one minor sort of "bug". When you are looking a the portal to Earth (realm 4), you can move forward past the staircase and sort of fall down. You can't get out of this spot, and it's kind of sad because I had to restart. It's only something minor, you probably don't even need to do anything.

Awesome work man, I look forward to more from you.
