Gantrex1:
Still nothing. :(

Steff:
Did the logfile change?
Try to update your Grafic Card Driver. If logfile stop there it cant init the video system.

schlumpf:
The application is crashing during

--- Code: ---  if( !video.init( xres, yres, fullscreen, doAntiAliasing ) )
  {
    LogError << "Initializing video failed." << std::endl;
    return -1;
  }

  SDL_WM_SetCaption( "Noggit Studio - " STRPRODUCTVER, "" );

  std::string wowpath( getGamePath() );
  if( wowpath == "" )
  {
    return -1;
  }

  Log << "Game path: " << wowpath << std::endl;
--- End code ---
Where video.init() is the last to be called and contains

--- Code: ---bool Video::init( int xres_, int yres_, bool fullscreen_, bool doAntiAliasing_ )
{
[...]

  LogDebug << "GL: Version: " << glGetString( GL_VERSION ) << std::endl;
  LogDebug << "GL: Vendor: " << glGetString( GL_VENDOR ) << std::endl;
  LogDebug << "GL: Renderer: " << glGetString( GL_RENDERER ) << std::endl;

  return mSupportCompression;
}
--- End code ---
therefore has finished as it is printing everything. This means it is crashing in

--- Code: ---  SDL_WM_SetCaption( "Noggit Studio - " STRPRODUCTVER, "" );

  std::string wowpath( getGamePath() );
  if( wowpath == "" )
  {
    return -1;
  }

--- End code ---
So either SDL_WM_SetCaption or getGamePath. As I trust Sam

it will most likely not crash in SDL_WM_SetCaption. It therefore crashes in

--- Code: ---std::string getGamePath()
{
  if( !boost::filesystem::exists( "NoggIt.conf" ) )
  {
  #ifdef _WIN32
    HKEY key;
    DWORD t;
    const DWORD s( 1024 );
    char temp[s];
    memset(temp,0,s);
    LONG l = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft",0,KEY_QUERY_VALUE,&key);
    if (l != ERROR_SUCCESS)
      l = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft\PTR",0,KEY_QUERY_VALUE,&key);
    if (l != ERROR_SUCCESS)
      l = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,"SOFTWARE\Blizzard Entertainment\World of Warcraft",0,KEY_QUERY_VALUE,&key);
    if (l == ERROR_SUCCESS && RegQueryValueEx(key,"InstallPath",0,&t,(LPBYTE)temp,(LPDWORD)&s) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
      return temp;
    else
      return "";
    RegCloseKey(key);
  #else
    return "/Applications/World of Warcraft/";
  #endif
  }
  else
  {
    Log << "Using config file." << std::endl;
    return ConfigFile( "NoggIt.conf" ).read<std::string>( "Path" );
  }
}
--- End code ---
I don't think boost::filesystem::exists can crash. It therefore can either be true or false. As you are on windows, it either is

--- Code: ---Log << "Using config file." << std::endl;
--- End code ---

or some winapi calls.

Your log is not printing "Using config file.". Therefore, you do not have a properly named file.

It therefore seems like YOU ARE NOT HAVING A PROPER CONFIG FILE.

AND: That winapi stuff crashes on some configuration. I don't know why, but it might be protection with non-admin privileges — while I have no idea why you would need those. BUT I DON'T CARE.

You do NOT have a proper config file and noggit is crashing for some weird reason in windows specific code.

This is the last time I even remotely answer such a thread. This will be closed and moved to the bad topics as we had this problem often enough and the thread's title is just stupid and saying nothing.
