Scons builds not working

    None of my compiles are working when i try to open them (.exe) 

    they're static compiles, compiled using scons, compiled on windows for windows

    I get this error: The application has requested the runtime be terminated in an unusual way

    I have tried editing the "Sconscript"file and moving the fftw checks to the very beggining of the checks and deleting the beta option in my compile.sh script

    Information:

    OS: Windows 8.1 Preview

    MinGW: 0.5 Beta

    Python: 2.7.5

    Scons

    Git: 1.83 Preview

    compile.sh: scons.py --static --pthreadw32-static --release --win --sse2 -j2 --sdl-dir='C:\MinGW\include\SDL' --lua-dir='C:\MinGW\include\lua5.1'

    try removing the --sse2 and --release switches, as well as maybe adding a --64bit switch (this could help if you are using a mingw64 build, iirc powder can use some x86 assembly, maybe that assembly is assuming the machine is not 64bit and something bad is happening?).

    i have mingw,  mingw64

    Removing --release and --sse2 didn't help, same error message happens.

    I found the culprit: statically compiling

    Heh, windows linking is a giant mess, that doesn't surprise me. That might explain why my old TPT builds all failed miserably. Oh well, just another reason I like developing for linux...
