ERROR: could not load: glut32.dll

What I tried:
- Downloaded FreeGLUT
- renamed freeglut.dll to glut32.dll
- put both in system32 and SysWOW64 folders
- put in project folder containing .exe of opengl example
:SAME ERROR

I dont' know if you downloaded the right version for your compiler but did u recompile it from source or are downloading it from a binary package??

anyway freeglut i don't believe is being maintained anymore anyway, using glfw instead might be good there is a nim wrapper for it. its for glfw 3.04 but works with the latest 3.1 series.

And u have to compile it too..

GL can work on windows 10 x64 with iupgl, vao and shaders. But glut, I don't know.
