MIDAS11.DLL not found

Post by gas01ine »

Unfortunately i cant use MODs in my games. They dont work cause Windows terminates the program like this
Modtest.exe - MIDAS11.DLL not found
I tried copying PB's Midas-Libs in my game directory, in my music directory even in the WINDOWS/SYSTEM32 direcotry:
MIDAS11.DLL seems to be no windows library
Does any-1 have had this problem too or what could be a possible reason?

Thanx in advance!

when you press f5 and compile a temp .exe is created in the compilers folder inside the PB folder, place Midas.dll in there. :) For distribution include the Midas.dll with your .exe in the same folder.

MIDAS11.DLL and MIDAS.DLL

Post by oldefoxx »

I also encountered this problem in trying to compile one of the example programs. Searching my hard drives turned up a couple of MIDAS.DLL files, which I copied in turn to my c:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 subdirectory so as to put them in the right path. None matched the function being called for. I searched the Internet for MIDAS11.DLL, and after a couple of false leads, I found where someone had made a Zip file available. I downloaded it, unzipped it in a temporary directory, then move MIDAS11.DLL to the system folder, That worked. So for anybody that has had this problem, the solution is out there.
has-been wanna-be (You may not agree with what I say, but it will make you think).
