I want to get the current directory with it, use file_dialog after what changes the directory and set the directory back with SetCurrentDirectory. Code: GetCurrentDirectory(?,?); // i know this is wrong ??? char* my_ent = file_dialog("Load entity",".tga;.bmp;.pcx;.dds;*.mdl"); SetCurrentDirectory(?); If i set the directory manually it works: SetCurrentDirectory("D:\\Dungeon"); Last edited by Widi; 02/22/11 09:36.

And another mistake i do was GetCurrentDirectory give only one Backslash return in the path and SetCurrentDirectory needs two. I should use more the printf function to figure someting like this out.
