Strange stuff happening... My project (OpenGL with SDL) was going along all fine (but nothing big yet), until I started textures. I try to do the texture loading with SDL_Image, and, after a whole lot of coding, and a whole lot of debugging, it finally compiles and links properly. But now I'm getting an error I never saw before: "The procedure entry point SDL_Error could not be located in the dynamic link library SDL.dll" I have no idea what this means... So after a google search I find exactly 1 page, which tells me to upgrade to SDL 1.2.8. That's all very sweet, but now the SDL homepage seems down. So, is there anything else I can do except wait until the home page resurrects? And can someone enlighten me about that error? It seems more windows-specific then SDL-specific, but since I know nothing about the technical stuff of DLL's, I have no clue... *EDIT* OK i found 1.2.8 by google cache... Installed it and it worked :). Still wanting to know what that error was, if anyone reads this... Thanks, -Amarth [Edited by - Amarth on January 17, 2005 4:41:46 PM]

Someone else had this problem recently as well. It was located here.

Original post by Drew_Benton I sounds like you are not using the correct SDL.dll file. Check to make sure whatever version of SDL you installed you have the right .dll in the project folder or the system32 folder if you have winxp - or system if you have pre-winme. What version of SDL are you using? Also check the sdl.dll you have and see it's version.

That was why - incorrect .DLL compability with the third party libraries with SDL.dll.

I think I understand... The SDL_Image-version I got used SDL 1.2.8, wile I still had SDL 1.2.7 installed at that time. Well, that makes sense :-). Thanks!

Yeap, that's it. [smile] (This is commonly refered to as DLL Hell)
