My errorlog is still there. Try downloading again, maybe from a different mirror.

Does the game normally come packaged with an errorlog.txt? Or does it automatically generate one when you first get an error?

I downloaded the game again to see how they got the Mayday graphics working, and THAT version properly generates an errorlog.txt file. The file is generated on every game start, assuming, of course, there are errors to log. :)

Yes, that's the point. If there are no errors, it doesn't create the file. Please try manually introducing an error, like by assigning a nonexistent color to something in the creature raws. Errorlog.txt should then get created.

I'm pretty sure this was a bad download issue. The second version I pulled down works correctly.
