This happens when Sword application could not find modules. There are
several ways to fix this. If you have Sword modules already installed, set
environment variable SWORD_PATH to folder containing mods.d and modules
folders. Either using Control Panel->System or command line "set
SWORD_PATH=...". If you haven't modules installed using Xiphos or
BibleTime, you would download it from
http://crosswire.org/sword/modules/ModDisp.jsp?modType=Bibles and extract
to working directory you run example (remember that Visual Studio set
working directory to solution root, instead of executable directory).

As far as i know nobody tried to build Sword for Windows RT. Feel free to
try and report here whether it was successful or not.

Blessings.
