Game Built On Windows 7 Instantly Crashes/No Error Message

I wanted to troubleshoot the Gamepad issues described on this thread...

http://community.stencyl.com/index.php/topic,37306.0.html

...by testing my gamepad on Windows, to see if it was some issue with the Mac build.

So I fired up Virtual Box and installed Stencyl on Windows 7.

Unfortunately, whenever I actually try to Run the game, it seems to instantly disappear/crash. If I'm reading the logs right, the build process is working fine.

See this screencast of what happens:

I've attached the relevant log file for the build process, and also my .stencyl exported file.

Other relevant details: I am running the version of Visual Studio 2010 Express that Stencyl auto prompts me to install. I also made sure all file paths I'm using for Stencyl have NO spaces in them (Moved to C:\Stencyl, and made sure my game has no spaces in it's name).

Try running the game from the command line to see if it produces an error message before it crashes.

Sorry, no error when run from the command line. See screencast:

Also, I don't have any anti-virus or anything like that, that would block execution.

Also, here is a Dropbox link to both the project folder (not just the stencyl export) as wall as the games-generated folder for this project.

Okay, no error message makes it very hard to debug. Have you tried if the same happens in a game that doesn't use any Gamepad code or events?

I wonder if it's something with Virtualbox possibly?

On a hunch I installed Stencyl on my wife's laptop, which is also running Windows 7, and was able to run the attached game fine using steps outlined above. So...whatever, I wasn't really planning on using Virtualbox on an extended basis, just for testing gamepad support. So you can consider this closed.

FWIW, gamepad still didn't work for me on my wife's Win7 laptop, but that's a subject for this thread:

(If you want to help me there, I would hugely appreciate it)

Ya, could be because of Virtualbox. I'm sorry, I have no idea why the gamepad input is not detected. I haven't used gamepads yet, but I think I remember it worked for twotimingpete.

Thanks for trying! Wonder if it's fixed in a private build or something.
