is there a way in 2.74 to read a file in local folder where the data file is located ?

this was working in 2.72 but now fail !

Ex:

filein = “[zcolor](file://\zcolor)1”
sourceName = filein + ‘.py’

fo = open(sourceName, “r”)

thanks

Don’t know what causes the change, but as the python zen says… “Explicit is better than implicit”.

So in this case:


filepath = bpy.path.abspath("//zcolor1.py")

have not seen that one !
but will test it!

but not certain what changes happened on the relative mode
cause it was working fine in 2.72

or use the OS module !

thanks

looks like
filepath = bpy.path.abspath("//zcolor1.py")

work well !

but still wondering why the old way does not work anymore!
