Unable to build Freeimage module.

Hello. First I would like to say that I really appreciate and enjoy many of the brucey mods, they are amazing. Second, when trying to build the freeimage module I get a wall of text ending in : "Build Error: failed to compile C:/BlitzMax/mod/bah.mod/freeimage.mod/src/FreeImage/PluginG3.cpp" I have installed and set up MinGW and tried updating it, but it just won't work. I've also downloaded the mod 5ish times just to see if the SVN thingy was bugged. So far this is the only mod i've been having trouble with. Anyone able to help me? I'm about to hulk-smash something :P

is this the latest freeimage version? you may want to try older versions.

Thanks for the answer, that is a good idea, I would like to try that. Any idea where I can find older versions?:O

What version of MinGW are you using? some of his mods won't work with all versions...

Bjørn (Posted 2012) [#5]

Oh, I did not know that. I just downloaded the newest version. Which version should I try?
