Level editor sdl.dll problem - xxtimetokillxx - 07-20-2012
Been trying to install the level editor for Amnesia. I have the steam version, so I followed the directions on the wiki to place them in the correct folder, C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\amnesia the dark descent\. Once placed there, I got the "sdl.dll missing" error. I've searched everything there is about the error and I can't seem to find a fix in my situation. I've tried putting the files in different locations, reinstalling them. I downloaded a program that supposedly would fix my sdl.dll problem, but after scanning, I had to pay for it to fix it.
Does anyone know what my issue is?

these files must be put at the same folder with the .exe Amnesia executable

Putting it simply, I don't really know how to do that.
