that works for saving INIs, but for running external programs (in TGF atleast) it doesn't work. And don't say "Yes it does you just suck) because I have tried and it did not work.

Come on guys, READ his question.
More specifically, you need the file object, and you need to use the "Get cd-rom drive directory from label" function in an expression.
So you can retrieve the root of a particular cd that's inserted. It's the only way to do what you want, if the game is elsewhere and the files could be on any external drive. Enjoy
