***BASE****
>YOU NEED AMNESIA: TDD + ITS LATEST PATCH (1.3.1 or above)
If you play on GOG, Steam, EGS… you already have it.
If you don't, download and install it from where you bought your game.


***WARNING***
A clean installation is advised to avoid conflicts with other mods that could have broken, outdated content.


***STEAM/GOG/EGS****
Put the folder "Forbidden_Trip" at the root of your "Amnesia The Dark Descent" folder.
That's it!


***NON-STEAM***
Put the folder "Forbidden_Trip" inside the "Redist" folder.
This folder is located inside your "Amnesia - The Dark Descent" folder.


***HOW TO PLAY***
Inside the "Forbidden_Trip" folder, you will find various launchers for Windows, Linux, macOs, next to this readme file.


***LAUNCH VIA STEAM ON LINUX OR MACOS***
To launch FT via Steam on Linux or macOs, right click on Amnesia: TDD, click properties, in launch options add:
Forbidden_Trip/config/main_init.cfg
Then launch Amnesia: TDD to play FT.
Please note that only 32 bit macOs are supported sadly.


***CRASH BETWEEN TWO LEVELS?***
=> Be sure you have a clean install of Amnesia without any custom content present (mods...) to avoid potential conflicts.

=> Some levels are very large so it can cause a crash on some older computers when they are loading, especially if you use an old 32 bit system instead of a 64.
To avoid it, do this quick manipulation (Windows):
-Close the game
-Go into C:\Users\[YOUR_NAME]\Documents\Amnesia\Forbidden_Trip
-Open "main_settings.cfg" with a notepad
-Search for "ForceCacheLoadingAndSkipSaving="false"
-Change "false" to "true", save the file and quit the notepad.
-Restart the game

=> You might not be able to play at all on a 32 bit system.

=> If you ever get a crash when you load a new level, do not panic: just restart the game and load the last autosave to resume your progression exactly where you were.

=> For macOs and Linux, same logic applies: just find that "main_settings" file then edit it as shown above.

=> If you got a crash when launching the game or in the menu, you did not install Forbidden Trip correctly. If you are on Linux or macOs, please search support online.


***RESET VISUAL STYLE TO OLD-SCHOOL***
**on Linux:
Just remove 'main_settings' file in:
'Home\.frictionalgames\Amnesia\Forbidden_Trip\', then restart FT.
**on macOs
Just remove 'main_settings' file in:
'~/Library/Application Support/Frictional Games/Amnesia/Forbidden_Trip/'
**on Windows:
Just remove 'main_settings' file in:
'C:\Users\[YOUR_NAME]\Documents\Amnesia\Forbidden_Trip\'
