Allegro crashes when running load_bitmap. Why?

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I can not get Allegro to load any BMP images. Here is a section of test code. The picture is in the working directory:

BITMAP *my_pic;
my_pic = load_bitmap("kirby.bmp", NULL);

if(!my_pic)
{
allegro_message("ERROR lol");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}

I always get the error message. Why would the image not be found?

Allegro does work. I can draw pictures with it.
