LOVE 0.9.x does not start

[furi]

Hi! In advance, I'm running on Windows 7 64-bit. For some strange reason, I can't run the LOVE exe no matter what. From SciTE, it reports "Exit code: 3221226525", but aside from that, I get nothing. No window, no no-game screen, nothing. I tried the portable version as well as the installer version of both 64-bit and 32-bit. However, I can run 0.8.x and lower without a problem. Why is that?

EDIT: Running as an administrator fixes the problem.
What could be causing this strange behavior?

Alright, I had to figure this out for myself. Apparently, running on a custom shell prevents the newer versions of LOVE from starting. Is there a way to fix this?

Sorry no one's responding man. I saw this post and didn't know what to think of it, so I didn't respond. You may have to get one of the devs to respond, or at least people with knowledge of shells.

Or is it a problem with scite? Maybe it's a report for them instead. I'm not sure man, sorry.

It's alright, I'm really just a little frustrated with the whole deal. I've tried running outside of SciTE with the same results, so I assume it has to do with some new dependencies introduced in LOVE 0.9.x. I'm not much of an expert myself, though.

Love tries to attach to existing consoles now, so maybe that's where it's going wrong? What happens if you run it from a command prompt?

Nothing returns, even if I give it a folder. Also tried using the "print" command to see if anything would show up. No dice.

going to shoot in the dark here since bartbes said it. But maybe is Löve having problems with the SCite console window?

edit: This seems like it's turning into an interrogation haha.

Have you tried other applications that use SDL2? Like steam's big picture mode?

Odd. Attempting to open Big Picture completely closes out Steam with no error messages, similar to LOVE. I'm using the 64-bit version of bbLean. Really, I don't understand how it could interfere with so much like this.

On the normal shell, running LOVE in SciTE, the process is there, but no window appears. Outside of SciTE, it works fine, though.
