Bug #494
Win2k, Snowberry: gdiplus.dll not found
100%
Description
Trying to run Snowberry in a fresh Windows 2000 Professional, with SP4 and all updates from Windows Update installed.
I selected "Doomsday Engine" from the Start menu, and it came up with a dialog that says
"Dynaamisesti linkitettävää tiedostoa gdiplus.dll ei löydy määritellystä polusta c:\Program Files\Doomsday\snowberry;.;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT\system;
C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\system32;C:\WINNT;C:\WINNT\system32\Wbem"
It's a Finnish Win2k, but I assume everyone can imagine the same in English :)
Should the .dll come with Snowberry or some component of Windows, or should I manually fetch it and put it... where?

Install the Microsoft DOT.NET 1.1 or 2.x framework. Both of those supply gdiplus.dll for windows 2000.

Simply installing 2.0 framework didn't do it. It placed the dgiplus.dll file into C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 and it seems that this location is not searched during runtime. I manually copied it to Snowberry's dir, and that solved it.
