I just did a quick check on my computer. Your sample code runs perfectly fine on my machine, regardless if you comment or uncomment the level_load statement. So basically I see four possible error sources:

  • Your .wmb file is damaged. Recompiling should solve the issue then.
  • Your source image is somehow different or damaged. I made a 24 bit .tga file.
  • Your hardware or any of your drivers is causing the problem.
  • You posted only an excerpt of your code and something totally different is causing the problem.


Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...
