Do you not get this error if you compile in debug mode?

0xC000007B means "invalid image format". That is, the EXE (or one of the DLLs) is 32-bit but it should be 64-bit, or the other way around.

I found this for the error, I don't know if it helps: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/fix-how-to-fix-the-0xc000007b-error/7ceb6950-306b-441e-994d-a353a14b3bca

The sdl.dll and/or sdl_image.dll is 32-bit instead of 64-bit, or the other way around.

The error does not occur if you debug from dev-cpp because it uses the source code of the libraries.

Here are the links for the libraries. Use one of the top 2 zip links to get the DLLs.

i was just thinking that! sorry for the "false" error didn't think about matching the architecture of the exe with the architecture of the dll... thanks! i used the right mingw with dev c++ but not when adding the dlls to the sdlpop directory
