I already put the last patch 1.2

[plutomaniac]

In order to find what is wrong you must attach us the hpl.log file again right after the next crash. Right now it doesn't show something important. Is this log after the latest crash?

[Tanshaydar]

Try to load an earlier save.

[plutomaniac]

If you installed the v1.2 patch while playing(in the middle of the game) then you might encounter problems. The solution is to load a previous save game before entering the problematic area.

[narutohokager]

I tried to have the crash ingame but the crash is not coming.
but when I want to take an object (I tried with an orb piece) its freeze for 2 seconds and after its unfreeze.

But i think is the hpl.log after latest crash.

Not at first I closed the game then I installed the patch.

Sorry for my bad english.

[plutomaniac]

when you install the patch you should start a new game. If you continue a previous one there might be problems. So if you did that, load a previous save game before entering the current area.

[narutohokager]

I already started a new game after installed the patch 1.2

[plutomaniac]

and the problem is still there? You said that the crash is not happening anymore. So I guess, the problem is fixed?

[narutohokager]

I dont know, sometime the crash come, but sometime not...

But something wrong in the hpl.log ?

I will tell you if crash is coming back

[plutomaniac]

well HPL.log only shows two errors but it is old. Since you started a new game you shouldn't have any problems from now on. If the crash happens again though, attach us again your HPL.log found under Documents/Amnesia/Main folder so that we can help.
