File system only works in editor

Seems like none of the file search functions work in the game executable.
expandFilename, findfirstfile, getcurrentdirectory, makefullpath... nothing seems to function. Without this functionality, I can't figure out a way to create filelists (saved games!?) or do any automated work with files.

This thread had some temporary fixes (Benjamin Grauer's $mymodpath fix is what I'm using at the moment and it seems to work fine).
