Issue running a Lua project on Axmol 2.3.2 on Windows 11

[Ts-pe]

Hello, I'm trying to run a Lua project on Axmol 2.3.2 on Windows 11, but the program doesn't start correctly. I've followed the installation and setup steps to the letter, but the project gets stuck on a screen without specific errors. Below, I detail the steps I've taken and relevant information:

Steps taken:

1. Downloaded Axmol 2.3.2 from the releases tab.
2. Extracted the file and ran setup.ps1 in administrator mode.
3. Reopened PowerShell in administrator mode and ran the command axmol new -l lua to create a new Lua project.
4. Ran build.bat (also tried axmol build -p win32) in administrator mode.
5. Opened the generated project in build/proyectname.sln with Visual Studio 2022.
6. Started debugging (in version 2.3.2, there's a known issue with bitop, I implemented the proposed solution).

Issue:

The program doesn't start and gets stuck on the following screen:

[LUA-print] [INFO]
[LUA-print] [INFO] # DEBUG                        = 2
[LUA-print] [INFO] #
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.platform              = windows
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.model                 = unknown
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.language              = en
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.writablePath          = C:/Users/tspe/AppData/Local/SLR/
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.directorySeparator    = \
[LUA-print] [INFO] # device.pathSeparator         = ;
[LUA-print] [INFO] #

No additional error messages are shown, and I'm unsure if the issue is with my environment or the Axmol build.

Environment information:

Component	Details
Operating System	Windows 11 Enterprise Insider Preview Build 27783.1000
Visual Studio 2022	Version 17.12.4
CMake	Version 3.31.5
MSVC Compiler	Version 19.42.34436 for x64
Installation Path	C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.42.34433\bin\Hostx64\x64
Installer Path	C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Installer
Installer Version	17.12.35707.178
NASM	2.16.03

Additional attempts:

• I also tried generating the project directly with CMake using the following command:

  cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64

  But the result was the same.

Questions:

1. Could there be an issue with my development environment?
2. Are there any known issues in version 2.3.2 that might be causing this problem?
3. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

I'm not sure if this is an issue with my environment, a misconfiguration on my part, or a bug in Axmol 2.3.2. Could someone guide me on how to proceed or point me in the right direction? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

P.S.: I also tried compiling the Axmol engine directly using the same CMake command (cmake -S . -B build -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -A x64) and then running cmake --build build. However, the generated executables (including the test programs) do not work correctly. This makes me wonder if there's a broader issue with the build process or compatibility on my system.

3. Reopened PowerShell in administrator mode and ran the command axmol new -l lua to create a new Lua project.

That is not correct. Where did you see that command listed? Did you follow the development setup guide?

Also, you do not need to be running Powershell with admin privileges, and doing so may cause you other problems. Was there something in the Axmol documentation that indicated this needs to be done on Windows?

The actual command to create a project is: axmol new -p your.unique.id -d PathToProject -l lua ProjectName

For example, the following will create a folder named "MyProject" in the current folder (indicated by the -d .):
axmol new -p com.mydomain.myproject -d . -l lua MyProject

Go into the "MyProject" folder, then type:
axmol build -p win32 -c
or
axmol -p win32 -c (since "build" is the default option)
