Not Starting - PHOSPHORUS-HOMEY - 03-17-2009
'Beginner'...Now, I open then click on Vdrift.exe in Program files. Tries to open what looks like DOS windows(2 of them) then disappears. Installed latest version already. Info...
ATI Radeon Xpress 200
Adapter Ram 128MB
ATI2dvag.dll 6.14.10.6525
32bit system 32
WinXP...speed 2188MHz...RAM 1.50GB

I don't know much about doing the things I read people doing w/their computers w/this game so be easy.
How do make screenshots for future?

Check the stdout.txt file in Program Files\VDrift\ and post any errors there.

Also post stderr.txt please.

It looks like it's having trouble finding the data folder. If you go to the place where vdrift.exe is, do you see a data folder? Any luck starting VDrift from the start menu?
Not Starting - PHOSPHORUS-HOMEY - 03-18-2009
Tried Start Menu-no go. Yes, I see the folder...clicked- 12 other folders and a SConscript.no data.
- thelusiv - 03-18-2009
Ok, look in that data folder for the shaders folder, and within that a "simple" folder. Is there a "vertex.glsl" file in there?

I am having similar problems- No log in st derr. Stdout has this:

I redownloaded and reinstalled and I am still getting the same problem.
- joevenzon - 04-05-2009
Still no stderr.txt?
Try opening your My Documents\My Games\VDrift\VDrift.config file with notepad, search for the line "shaders = true" and set "shaders = false", and see if that fixes it.
- Ronin - 04-06-2009
There is no config file in that folder.
Records, replays, screenshots, and log.
- joevenzon - 04-06-2009
Okay, try creating a file called VDrift.config there and put just this inside it:
Code:
[display]
shaders = false- Ronin - 04-06-2009
I created a text document using notepad containing the specified script and the exact file name, still no luck.
- joevenzon - 04-07-2009
Can you paste the log.txt file here?
