Hey everyone,

unfortunately hedgewars does not start on my pc (win7 32bit, NVidia G210, latest driver). When I run the hedgewars.exe, the hwengine process is started, but no game window appears.

No game.log is created, only this preview0.log:

0: [Con] Init SDL_Net...
0: [Con] ok
0: [Con] Establishing IPC connection...
0: [Con] ok
0: [Cmd] /seed (38)
0: [Cmd] $template_filter (1)
0: [Cmd] $mapgen (1)
0: Ping? Pong!
0: [Con] Generating preview...
0: [Con] Selected template #7 using filter #0
0: [Con] Sending preview...
0: [Con] Preview sent, disconnect
halt at 0 ticks. TurnTimeLeft = 0

Anyone have a suggestion, why this happens and what I can do about it? Thanks!

Do you have Comodo installed?
Also, check to ensure that you have the appropriate privileges on hwengine.exe.
You might want to test running hwengine.exe on the commandline.

No, I don't use Comodo.

hwengine starts, but is usually quit after 1 sec.

Ok. Try:
http://m8y.org/tmp/hedgewars.ini

Put that in your hedgewars config dir (one level below the Logs dir)

That's a hedgewars.ini with sound disabled.

If it works, you have a sound driver flaw. SDL is failing to init the sound system. You'll be able to play hedgewars w/o sound only until that is fixed, since both frontend and backend use SDL sound.
