Thanks for the crash dump! Looks like you have some graphics driver issues, with only a basic driver being reported. Which are you using, have you tried installing Nvidia drivers?

Not yet, I'll have to look into it. It claims to be using an "NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430" display driver dated for 7-20-2011. Seems pretty up to date to me.

The "OpenGL 1.1.0" in crashlog.txt means it's getting the default (terrible) Windows software renderer, which won't work - need to get the hardware-accelerated Windows drivers working properly somehow (assuming that's possible at all with the current pre-release versions of Win8 and the NVIDIA drivers). I don't think this is a problem in our code, so I'll close the ticket for now - feel free to reopen if there's new information (e.g. if other OpenGL applications work correctly with hardware acceleration).
Need more info. Debug output from Microsoft's DebugView utility and/or crash logs if possible (
%appdata%\0ad\logs
). Unless someone on the team has a Windows 8 system for testing.
