Fail to start when launched from UNC path

Hello, just stumbled upon this after seeking a DDV player, and i must say, brilliant work! However, the build's don't work, here is the output:

[ENTER] main

And your blog is inaccessible

Not sure what the cause of that GL error is, but you can pass the command line -directx9 and see if directx works?

[MrSapps]

Hmm actually that GL error is probably just a bad path on an exception, since you seem to have a debug build try setting break on exception to see where/what exception is being thrown? I think it would be logged out but the assert prevents it getting that far due to openglrenderer destructor issue.

Edit: You say "builds" don't work, so if this is an appveyor build try the release build to get past the assert to see the real error.

[BiatuAutMiahn]

you mentioned path, and I was running it on a network drive, put it on my desktop and runs without issues. UNC support?

[MrSapps]

Ah yes UNC probably doesn't work. I'll try to repro when I get time.
