Can someone help me here...
I am getting a new Lite-C project to the point where I am creating a resourced .cd folder.

The project is similar to the template "Car Level" and I am using the Demo/Tour feature which reads five .txt files that have been recreated.

When running the project from the main folder (not resourced), the project runs properly.
When running from the resourced .cd folder, the engine seems un-able to read or find the .txt files.

I have tried two ways.
One - where the .txt files are added to the top level of the resource folder
and
Two - where they are not in the resource folder but they are in the .wrs file.
Niether way works...

Any advice to clear this up will be most appreciated..
Thanks

try to create a wdl file with the same name as your mainscript (main.c => main.wdl)

And add:


to it..
then just place it in the folder of your mainscript/exe

Espér,
Thanks...
I've messed with those path statements in the past...
But, they never work for me...
Dambest thing !
I'll try again...
But, I can't understand it... if that might work... why wont it work with the .txt files in the top level of the finished / resourced folder?
They work from my main construction folder but not the resourced folder...
Dambest thing !
Thanks again...

i don´t know.. seems like the compiled file is not reacting on PRAGMA_PATH..

But.. i dunno.. i´ve fixed such problems with the wdl...

If you are not shure, the easiest way is to copy all of your assets manually into
the "cd" folder.
This way you dont forget anything.
Dont waste too much time checking that the automatic copy functions work properly, and just do it manually.
The time is spend better on other stuff.

Nice of you guys to help!

Damocles_
I already tried that but even that will not work...
It's the dambest thing !

Espér,
I'm still at it tryin' as you suggested...

Thanks!!!

If copying all your assets into the cd folder (and correct subfolders if you split it up that way) does not work,
you have some deeper problem lying behind that.

Either you load stuff from a wrong path, or
missed some important assets or dll.

See: the "publish" does two things:
It compiles your code into the executables (and
possibly script files)
and second, it copies your assets into the cd folder.

The second step you could do manually in any case
with the same results.

If that does not work, there is some systematic problem.

No luck !!!

I made a .wdl file (Same name as the main)
I put this code in the .wdl
PATH "text";
I added a folder called "text" with the .txt files into the resourced folder...

The game runs from the construction folder...
but...
No luck !!!
It's the dambest thing !

Thanks guys !

try putting and loading the txt files from the main folder.

I already tried that... first thing...
It all works fine from an un-resourced folder but not from a resourced folder...
I get the same problem from the un-resourced folder when I remove the text files from it...
That tells me, that the engine cant find the files... even if I manually put them into the resourced folder...
Crapola!
