BMax Linux - ExecFile (System_)

Ok, I've created a few scripts to set system volume, mainly: amixer -q -c 0 set Master 64 These are all located in the game directory. When opening a temrinal in the directory, running the scripts with: ./volume10.sh works fine. In my BMax application, using: System_ ("./volume10.sh") does nothing, if not lock my app up. What am I missing here? Best Regards,

Should work. Have you tried with a simpler script i.e. just echo Hello World or something? Are you sure that the files are in the same directory? Do the script's permissions allow execution?

Yes they allow execution, chmod +x.. etc.. the script is as follows: volume10.sh amixer -q -c 0 set PCM 255 amixer -q -c 0 set Master 64 I've placed the System_("./volume10.sh") before the main loop and it just sits there.. Running the same command $ ./volume10.sh with terminal in the directory works fine. Obviously, I'm assuming that System_ will operate in the game directory..
