Strange 'Skin not found' error when starting -- help, please

[joevenzon]

OK, I see how that would be. But, the game refuses to load any further than this! The game window appears with nothing in it, and then disappears completely along with the Command Prompt window.

The game should still create a file called stderr.txt in the same folder as vdrift. There might also be a stdout.txt file. See if you can find them, and if so, open them up in notepad or something and post the contents here.

Note to any windows devs who might be listening: could we maybe throw a message box up when there's an exception? Shouldn't be too much code.

I do have an Intel one.

That's a bad sign.

I use other OpenGL games on this same system.

That's a good sign.

If you can find the stderr.txt and stdout.txt files (should be wherever you installed the game), they will tell us more info.
