Hi Michael!
Can you please share:

1. A minimal working example.
2. The source image.
3. Indicate the line / the stack trace were the division by zero is happening.

Thanks.

Hi Martin,

If created a small application with which I can reproduce it just fine: https://bitbucket.org/Sokar/soil_issue24/src/master/
Only cloning the repo somewhere and starting the solution file with VS2017 should be enough to compile. I tried it on a second computer and it works fine.

the image use ist "img_test.bmp" from the bin folder of SOIL2.

I also got a bit more information, the exception happens in Line 1618 of Soil2.c which reads

#!c++

new_width = iwidth / reduce_block_x;

with reduce_block_x being zero.

I hope it helps to reproduce the exception.

You must initialize an OpenGL context before trying to load any image. Your example will never work. It's crashing in that line because it's being unable to determine the max texture size, because there's no GL context to obtain it.

Your right. I just checked with a different project that has an OpenGL context initialized and works. I wasn't aware of that, even though it makes sense.
And sorry for the delay, had some other stuff going on.

missing OpenGL context, not an actual bug.
