File Path

[NameUser]

Heyo.

When I moved computers, SFML started doing something odd. While before that it had started it's file path when loading images or files at the project, meaning I could easily include images or needed files within the project's folder, it now starts at the base. Because of this, I've had to keep my files in my C: directory and link to them there. It was a nuisance, but I just dealt with it. Now that I'm nearing giving out a very early alpha of my game to a few people, that's no longer an option.

Is there any reason SFML might no longer be starting the file path at the proper directory? If not, how can I go about manually setting to the file path to start at the project when the path to the project from the base might vary?

A C++ application will start search for resources given through a relative path, relativly to the working directory. Why your applications switch automatically the working directory to C:\ I don't know. Do you call your application with a symbolic link, that might use a diffrent working directory?
How do you run your application?

VC++
Debug -> Start Debugging

That usually. Though just running the exe directly yields the same results.

Well from VS and the default path you'll have to put the files next to the project file, otherwise you can change the working directory in Project->Preferences->C/C++->Debugging->Working Directory

And if you run the EXE from the explorer then the resources need to be directly next to the EXE.
