Black screen in Sapien

Post by Dominatr »

Sapien is a piece of -blam!-
This time, I load up a map, and the game window (where you see stuff) is completely blank, nothing but black. I have re-installed Custom Edition and HEK multiple times, without solving the problem. It also occurs no matter what map I try to load. Any ideas what's wrong?
Here's the debug.txt for your enjoyment

Now I extracted a different map, Blood Gulch, and tried that to see if it works, and got this

Lol, it looks like there were no problems with debug.txt. I don't know.

No sky? But this is the tutorial level that came with HEK.
And I have another error when opening Blood Gulch, and maybe with other levels
