FileTest.Exist

[Flaepru]

Hello.

Well, I am needing to check if the file (x) exists, so I use the function:

if FileTest.exist?("Graphics/Pictures/" + $fileName)

Well, that way work. But if I encript the game, it won't work. So, I try this:

if FileTest.exist?(RPG::Cache.picture($fileName))

But this way doesn't work. I get the error message: "Cannot convert bitmap into string". I already tryed .to_s, but it didn't work...
Anyone knows how can I check using the module?

Thanks from now,
see ya.

A begin/rescue block will do the trick here.

begin
  # test if a the file can be loaded
  RPG::Cache.picture($fileName)
  # do stuff here
rescue Errno::ENOENT
  # file does not exsist
end
