SDL2.dll error

zTecna opened this issue · 4 comments

When opening the executable I get the following error:
"code execution cannot continue because sdl2.dll was not found."
I don't know if I forgot to install some program necessary to run the game.

remembering that this same error happens when trying to "play" on the launcher

Me too, on v0.4.1, due to my network, I didn't test the older version

FishLauncher is only responsible for downloading the latest release from FishFight upstream repository and running the pre-built binary. This error occurs due to Fish Fight binary being dependent on SDL2. The solution is downloading SDL2.dll and placing it next to the executable which is located in C:\Users\<User>\.fishfight after you install the game via launcher.

I'll submit a PR to FishFight so that Windows releases will contain SDL2.dll in the next releases.

SDL2 is removed along with the latest changes in the upstream repository. This issue won't be a problem for the upcoming releases.
