DevIL

[OneSadCookie]

Does DevIL build on Mac OS X these days? I tried it (maybe a year ago) and it was disasterous; I couldn't even port it.

Personally, I've always liked QuickTime for image loading on the Macintosh. It's always there, it supports more formats than you can shake a stick at, and it's constantly being improved.

DevIL's big bonus as far as I'm concerned is the ability to read .DDS files...

Whoa crazy dude, your post shows after mine despite being posted before... wacky.

I couldn't find another post about this here, so I am bringing it up. If you are looking for an excellent cross-platform image loading library, look no farther than DevIL (http://openil.sourceforge.net/). Makes life easy. Don't waste your time writing image loading libraries when it has already been done.

Cheers.
