I fixed it myself by adding a line regarding a timer and a stop script to the following section in the Maps, Ch01, iotd_00_start_1 HPS file. The developers really should have included a stop script line to this section. I'm really surprised that nobody else has experienced any problems with this area like I have.

void LookFence(string ∈ asTimer) {
StopPlayerLookAt();
StartPlayerLookAt("LookFence", 1.5f, 1.5f, "");
AddTimer("", 1.0f, "StopScript");

I am experiencing a strange bug with this custom story. Whenever I start at the beginning, the camera keeps turning me towards the front gate no matter where I turn. I have altered the forward movement speed in the game.cfg file, but I don't have this issue with any other custom story.

I must be the only one with stuttering issues with this mod. Not sure why. Now I am getting 30 fps when I approach the mental institution in the third chapter.

I believe there is a major bug in this story. I entered the mausoleum with only one disc. I was then trapped inside with the cemetery door blocked. Can this really happen? Is there really no way out if the player does this?

OK, I got the red dots with another custom story. So, I have tried something new and this seems to be working so far. I was going HDMI (pc) to HDMI (tv). Now, I am going DVI (pc) to HDMI (tv). So far, so good. Could you tell me how to turn off the fog and some of the mansion lights in this mission in the maps folder?

I think what might help the choppy camera is disabling the fog and perhaps turning off some of the these candles and lights in the mansion. I went into the maps folder and saw some lines regarding fog and lights. However, I'm not sure that changing any of them to "false" actually did anything. I hate to pass on this mod so I am trying to change a few things.

See my comment above the last comment. I cannot find a solution to these issues. These things seem to only happen to me.

Ok, it has nothing to do with gamma correction. It happened again tonight after exiting and opening the mod a few times. As great as this mod is, I think I will have to move on to other custom stories and pass on completing this one. I am still experiencing this red dot thing and lots of choppy camera movement throughout, even though I am getting 60fps using a GTX1080 with tons of ram and a fast processor.

The flickering red dots appear right when it loads up on the menu screen and they are there when I enter the mod to play. They disappear if I exit out and then reload. I tried turning off antialiasing gamma correction in my nvidia settings and that seemed to eliminate this problem so far. I'll try loading it up again tonight and see if the issue comes back.

I am experiencing a strange issue with this mod. Even though my frame rate remains a solid 60fps, whenever I get near all the candles and lights, camera movement feels choppy. Like I said, it feels this way even though I am getting 60fps. I also occasionally get times when I load up the mod and get tons of red flickering pixel dots everywhere. I have neither of these issues in any other Amnesia custom story or any other game. I changed video card drivers, but I still have these issues only with this mod.

This must be a bug. Sometimes touching the arm works to lure a prisoner out of his cell and sometimes it doesn't. I couldn't finish this one.

I think I am fed up with this mod. The fact that nothing can be combined in the inventory and that I have to keep returning to the deskpad in the lab to combine anything and then have to repeatedly sneak past the two large monsters to get back to the only fire pit that be used to burn anything, even though there is a furnace right outside the lab room, is soooo tedious. I also cannot burn the meat held by pincers. I have seen the phrase "cannot use this item this way" so many times in this mod already. I think I will be moving on to another custom story/mod.

Holy **** I figured it out! All you do is use the hammer on the ladder! Then the ladder drops and you can climb down! GEEZ.. I can't believe I spent that much time on that!

Ok cool. Thanks. But I believe that there is supposed to be a lever somewhere. Mod makers don't usually place a spot for a lever and then instruct you to find one and then not put one in the map hoping that you figure out some other way that is not even hinted about. I managed to find a place to drop down but I suffered quite a bit of damage and it just didn't seem like the intended way down at all. I might just have to wait and see if anyone ever does a play through for this mod on youtube. I'm not sure why no one has played it.

I can't seem to find any sort of ledge that I can drop down onto. I die every time I hit the water below.

That doesn't help me at all. I guess I will have to abandon this one.

Where is the lever handle for the ladder? I have searched all over this map for it and I cannot locate it. I still have not found the three poison plants and I have no idea what to do with the meat, pincers, jar of blood, or bone. No one is playing this mod on youtube either.

Turn Back Time Chapter 5 is a buggy mess. Invisible walls, stuck doors, and crashes to the desktop. That door at the top of the steps in the prison cell area is stuck. There is no vent to enter prior to getting that door open.

Ok, that's understandable. It just drives me crazy when misquotes are used in a manner that makes them appear to be true and Christians eat this stuff up. I just want players to realize that Einstein has been misquoted so many times and that he was not a believer in a personal god.

Like I said, this mod happens to be absolutely one of the very best I have ever played and I have been playing Amnesia for many years. It's so good that I wanted to keep it, so I just replaced the silly Einstein loading screens with the ones that had no text. I have a great deal of respect for the creator of this incredibly well done mod and I don't want to take anything away from that. I just wanted to clear up the truth behind some of the loading screens.

The mod is of course damn good otherwise so I found a way of keeping it by going into the graphics - general folder and replacing the silly misquotes from Einstein with some of the plain loading screens with no quotes.

I uninstalled this mod upon reading this ridiculous MISquote from Einstein that the author flashed upon the screen:

"The more I know the science the more I believe in God."

The fact is, Einstein NEVER said that. It was purely fabricated by Christians AFTER his death. Einstein was a deist who despised people who use his quotes out of context to justify their belief in a personal God. He claimed:

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." [From Albert Einstein, the Human Side: New Glimpses from His Archives.]

cav8000 - - 45 comments @ Turn Back Time

No one is playing Turn Back Time on youtube at the present moment. The only person I watched try to play on youtube had to stop playing chapter 1 due to a bug that would not allow him to finish. Looks like there are some bugs that need to be worked out. The loading screens are everywhere too. They tend to ruin some immersion for me. It would be nice to not have so many loading screens in a patched version but I bet that's not possible.

cav8000 - - 45 comments @ Final Revelations V.3

I have been playing Amnesia for many years and I must say that Final Revelations is the best custom story I have ever played. It is also most definitely the longest custom story I have ever played too.

I have created a concise walkthrough for each chapter (in written form) for anyone who doesn't want to sit through hours and hours of youtube videos. Here it is:

cav8000 - - 45 comments @ Thief 2 HD Texture Mod

I have a HUGE problem with this mod. If you play fan missions with Darkloader then I would NOT recommend installing this mod at all. After installing this mod and then running Darkloader I could no longer load fan missions. Every fan mission inside Darkloader would keep loading the first level of the main Thief game "Running Interference". So, after doing a complete reinstall of Thief 2 without this HD Texture mod, everything is back to normal with Darkloader.

Something is SERIOUSLY messed up with this story. After I got the chipper and I go back to where my room is. I use the chipper to open up the Entrance Hall door. Then after the loading screen I end up in a place where I can't go forward. I can only go back through the door I came out of but now it is called the Refinery door and this leads to an area that makes NO sense and is nothing like the videos I have seen on youtube for this story. What is going on here? Please help.

I finished the story. Very good, I enjoyed it a lot. I have to wonder though. What was with all the useless lanterns and complete lack of oil later on in the story?

Excellent custom story. One of the best I've ever played. I just experienced only one bug the entire story. When I went back into the room with the moveable bookshelf I had no problem moving it. But the textures of the bookshelf and a few other items in that room were flickering like crazy. No big deal but still distracting.

I can't find any decent play through on youtube for this story. Everyone that has played it on youtube quits and doesn't finish it. I would like to see how the final puzzle is solved but everyone seems to lose interest on youtube.
