Hi!
I tried the latest snapshot, but the icon doesn't appear at all.
I've attached a version of the svg icon in windows format, which is the one I'm currently using. The svg file can be used directly in Linux as an icon.
By the way, I don't remember how to get the menu bar in the windows version. Could you please refresh my mind? I find it quite useful.
Thank you very much!

That was a separate build that depended on GTK+2. I've uploaded a separate .exe for you that should work (and specifies the icon differently - any joy?).
Edit: icon seeming a lot more likely now!

The Win32 and GTK+2 executables both show icons. I cannot see an icon for the Win64 version, but it may be that 32-bit Windows cannot display Win64 program icons.

Well,
I can see the icon on the GTK version, but I cannot start it on my W7 64bit machine at work... I instaleed the redistributable GTK libraries and its dependencies, but no use, I get always a 0xC00007B error.

If you're willing to install the 64-bit GTK+-2 bundle, I've uploaded a 64-bit exe built against it. Completely untested but, you know, it compiled...

I can run the 32bit GTK version, but the menus don't show up.
Am I doing anything wrong?
Edit: The menu bar is indeed there, but is rendered in black, like being overwritten by the emulator rendering.

I'm not sure, but I've just realised the 64-bit one definitely won't work, and gtkglext doesn't want to build against the GTK+ bundle I downloaded because the GTK+ people deprecated a bunch of stuff.
What does stdout/stderr say?

Hi!
Sorry to give you so much trouble
My stderr file is as follows
Module init: GTK+-2 UI

And I've attached a screenshot of my problem. The menu bar is fully functional, but it's being overwritten. Like having sdl fill the whole area including the menu bar. Sometimes I see the menu bar flickering.
Thank you very much for your help!

Hmm. Well it worked for you before, so it should be possible to get it going... I did recently create a common set of helpers for OpenGL stuff so I wasn't duplicating code in each module that used it - maybe I missed something for GtkGLExt, and it just happens to work on my setup. I'll have a look tomorrow.
It's not trouble per se, it's just a weird situation building for a platform you have no access to. Especially with the weird hundred-libraries-just-to-open-a-damn-window (and growing) situation that is GTK+ - I don't even really like it under Linux, it looks like absolute hell to install on Windows, with no proper package management.
