iuplua51.exe to my app’s source folder, I get an error when I try to open
the console there. Is it because it’s not in the same folder as the .dll
files? Originally, the app came with iuplua5.exe and there were no .dll
files with it, but if I double click on it, that .exe opens up just fine.
Yes, the console uses DLLs a few years now...
Just copy the DLLs along with the exe

No. These files were used during the build. They are embedded in the
executable.

an option to output the code with indices instead of RGBA values so the
colors can be set dynamically. For example, I made some icons that show
what a user’s color choices look like together, which is updated when a
color picker is used. As a workaround, I chose unique RGBA values for each
of my original image’s 3 colors, which made it easy to do a
search-and-replace on the IupView-generated Lua code in order to change
RGBA into indices.
The generated code will have indices if your input image is a 256 color
image. When importing 32 bpp images the generated images will follow their
bpp.
You updated from a very old IUP version. I guess you will find several
differences like these.
Best,
