I've also sent this to support. I'm developing a game on Blitzmax. I'm using the latest version of BlitzMax and MaxIDE. On Mac ReadDir and NextFile work as expected, but on my Windows 7 machine (Enterprise SP1) with exactly the same code it returns no files. For example the following doesn't work (it returns nothing): Local dir:Int =ReadDir(CurrentDir()) If Not dir RuntimeError "failed to read current directory" Repeat Local t$=NextFile( dir ) If t="" Exit If t="." Or t=".." Continue Print t Forever CloseDir dir Is this a bug or known issue? Is it something to do with permissions? Anybody got any ideas?
