Hi, I'm trying to play BGM using the Music class, and it works great. However whenever I want to play a sound it has to be in the root folder of the executable! I've tried specifying a "/sound" path in every syntax I could think of, and I was wondering what the proper syntax would be?
Here is the relevant line:
Code:
[Select]
if (!Music.OpenFromFile("\sound\blues.ogg"))

Try
"sound/blues.ogg"
or
"./sound/blues.ogg"
. By the way, backslashes are unportable and must be escaped. Prefer slashes.

Not only that, but if you use normal backslashes for some reason, you'll have to escape them ( '\\', instead of '\' ), unless you use C# in which case you can use @"\". But like Nexus said, use forward-slashes instead, it works on all platforms.
