Hi. I tried to download the latest version of MinGW, which has compiler 6.3.0 in it. However, the Allegro files I have are for 6.2.0. This seems to be causing a problem where al_clear_to_color(al_map_rgb(0, 0, 0)); crashes. Can someone please give me the exact version of MinGW I need to download? Yes 6.2.0, but, dwarf? posix? sjlj? win32? seh? rev0 or rev1?I have no idea what is going on. I just need a link for a compiler that works with the Allegro5 binaries. In the meantime I will keep trying to compile Allegro5 on windows, but this has taken me several days to try and figure out and I am kind of exhausted from it. I hope someone can help, thanks. |

The official binaries and dependencies were compiled with 6.2 which was current at the time, but since then 6.3 has come out. My binaries are compiled with MinGW-W64 gcc 7.3.0 and I provide a link to the correct version of MinGW to download as well. Get them here : My Website! | EAGLE GUI Library Demos | My Deviant Art Gallery | Spiraloid Preview | A4 FontMaker | Skyline! (Missile Defense) Eagle and Allegro 5 binaries | Older Allegro 4 and 5 binaries | Allegro 5 compile guide |

The ones on github are posix+dwarf for 32 bits, posix+seh for 64 bits. Revision doesn't matter. "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |
