I already took that into account, Pierre.
How to reproduce:
  • Method #1
    1. Download and extract XnView-win-full.zip.
    2. Start XnView and open a GIF, JPEG or PNG image.
    3. Filter » RIOT (c) Lucian Sabo (1.00) won't start :bug:
  • Method #2
    1. Download and extract XnView-win-small.zip.
    2. Download and extract Riot_dll_noinstall.zip.
    3. Move the following files to the AddOn subfolder of XnView:
      • Riot_dll_noinstall.zip\Riot_dll\FreeImage.dll
      • Riot_dll_noinstall.zip\Riot_dll\Riot.dll
      • Riot_dll_noinstall.zip\Riot_dll\XnView-addon\Riot.xnp
    4. Start XnView and open a GIF, JPEG or PNG image.
    5. Filter » RIOT (c) Lucian Sabo (1.00) won't start :bug:

I hate it when you're right and I'm wrong, Pierre :P
