I'm on Windows Vista if it helps any. When I go start up the game, it just stays black and then closes, giving me that debug file.

[Karl G.]

Are you running the game from the folder it is installed in? I.e. C:\Program Files\Evidyon

[Derath]

Yup, that's exactly what I'm doing. It's frustrating me because I really want to try this out. Any solution would be great. :[ My only guess is it's just Vista.

[Karl G.]

Ok, in config.ini set "ForceSoftwareRendering=1"

[Derath]

Sweet, that worked. Thanks Karl.

[Karl G.]

Bitchin'

You'll get to turn off software rendering and use your actual hardware at some point in the future

[Summoner]

Yeah, and when I try to install update it says the following,

".\volucrisclient.cpp(51): [INFO] Executing state "Startup"
.\statestartup.cpp(20): [INFO] Config file not found
.\acquiregraphics.cpp(103): [INFO] Using "NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT "

.\statestartup.cpp(28): [FATAL] The game couldn't load its resource file

"

[Karl G.]

Tell me:
- what is in the folder where you are running the game from
- whether or not anything is write-protected
- whether or not the updater succeeds (Are you running 1.8.2?)

[ascent]

also include the names of files in your evidyon file please

never forget that karl, various files can cause stuff not to work (atleast from what i've seen)
also summoner, is your computer updated?
