  • 1.  Relative and Absolute path within scripting

    Posted 07-05-2017 15:10
    Hi There,

    How can I link to images/video's which are places into the "video" of "images" map, but without using with the whole (absolute) path?

    For example...


    If txt.Text = "Background 1" Then
    material.GetShader(0, shad)
    shad.SetFileName("................................ ..............Video\DLS\background 1.avi")
    End if


    How can I make a relative link from the location of the project.xpr file?

    xpEngine.ProjectPath

    This is found in the XPression SDK file in the public properties for xpEngine Object Members.

    Thanks,

    Can you give me advice how I can implement it into the code. I can't get it right.

    dim quad as xpBaseObject

    self.GetObjectByName("Quad1", quad)
    quad.SetVolatileTextureFile(0, Engine.ProjectPath + "\Images\Pic1.jpg")
