I have a problem that I've been trying to solve for several hours now.
I am shelling the following command in Launch Base but nothing happens
"E:\games\ra2\Syringe.exe" "e:\games\ra2\gamemd.syr"
But if I shell
"E:\games\ra2\Syringe.exe" "gamemd.syr"
then Syringe complains that it couldn't load the file.
I think the problem might be to do with the working directory because the syringe.log file is created in e:\development\ra2yr\launchbase
I've also noticed that you can't do the following from command line (which would be rather useful):
C:\Syringe\>Syringe.exe "e:\games\ra2\gamemd.syr"
pd, please advise! Is this something that you can rectify?
EDIT:
I have resolved my problem by using an API to set the current directory to the RA2 directory. Once I did that, I can even run Syringe.exe from somewhere other than the RA2 directory.
This shows that Syringe does not determine the appropriate working directory by itself and instead uses the current directory as set by Windows.

Ever wondered what the hell is going on?
