Displaying an Open File Dialog

by Kevin Yancey · in Torque Game Builder · 06/07/2006 (7:08 pm) · 1 replies

Does Torque Game Builder have a standard open file dialog? The only one I can find is the one in the tools folder used by the level builder. Torque has a standard open file dialog, but I didn't know if I should go through the trouble of importing it, if I should just modify the level builder dialog, or if I was just missing something.

Kevin,
If you need to have an open file dialog in your game, you should definately use the ones that the level builder makes use of. They are the most recent, reliable, and flexible incarnations of a torque file dialog that you will find. Plus, they are easily extended to support different filter lists and auto appending file extensions, proper setting of default paths, and much more.


Best Regards,
