How do you access Debug console from standalone executable in Win8?
I know there is a page that describes where the Log files should be for different Operating Systems:
http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Manual/LogFiles.html
It describes that Debug Log information on a Windows Vista / 7 should be within EXECNAME_Data\output_log.txt
Since there is no documentation for Windows 8, I assume it works the same as Vista / 7. There is not file 'output_log within the _Data Folder. When I search for '_log' nothing appears anywhere on the computer. Hidden files are set to visible in my Control Panel folder options.
Does anyone know how to access the Debug Log information printed to console for a standalone executable running on Windows 8?
I'm on windows 8. I made a simple scene, that has a main camera and this script on the camera:
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public class demo : MonoBehaviour
{
// Use this for initialization
void Start()
{
Debug.Log("This is a test. Just a test");
}
}
I build it with just that scene and call it "Demo.exe" saved on my desktop
That created two things, Demo.exe on my desktop and Demo_Data folder on my desktop.
When I run Demo.exe it's supposed to write to the Debug.Log. Then I close Demo.exe.
In the Demo_Data folder, there's now a file called output_log.txt which says this:
log.txt:

Notice the Debug.log is in that. I'm not sure what your problem is. Can you try what I did and see if it works?
For future reference, logging is only enabled if you check "Development Build" and "Script Debugging" in Build Settings.
