After rewriting alot of my game and thinking its working properly i decided to try run the exectuble instead of Dev C++ - Compile & Run(which works fine). I double click it and it says "This application has failed to start because SDL_image.dll was not found, try reinstalling" so i copy SDL_image.dll and SDL.dll into the local directory and try again cmd prompt flashes up then closes. Ive also noticed the .exe is only 12kb which seems pretty small considering i got windows.h included. Any ideas why it wont run outside Devc++ ??

Found it, i didnt include jpeg.dll in the directory even though im loading JPEGS and didnt have any error checking.
