Hello, all. First post here. Whee!
Anyway, I be using TGF2 (the demo version), and I'm trying to figure out how to make the program check for an INI file. What I want is more or less a "Look for INI file. If found, load it. If not, take user to another frame."
Thanks in advance.
And now, I test and see what kind of code this board uses.
Either this is italic [i]or this is.[/i] I'll find out after hitting "Post".

Use the file extension to check whether a file exists or not.

Well, now you know.
As for the INI question, you could check to see if the file exists using the File object (I think it can do that, anyway). However, it's probably easier to just check against a value that you know isn't going to be 0 in the INI file by loading it into a counter/alt value - if it doesn't exist, you'll just get a zero instead.

 Well that was blaringly simple. I used the INI method (the File Extension didn't seem to be doing much; maybe I'm just using it wrong), and it worked like a charm. Thanks, guys.

Aw I wanted first post!  Yeah the site tends to use <html> code throughout instead of [bbcode], so you can use it in articles and downloads etc. and it'll work like that.

Heh, I thought the same thing.
But thanks, SuperNova.
