I wanted to customize fopen, to allow me to access files other then the Mod folder. (for personal use, that is).

Well I decided just to make it a seperate module, and here's the code for the function:

static cell AMX_NATIVE_CALL amx_ffopen(AMX *amx, cell *params)
{
    int len;
    char *file = MF_GetAmxString(amx,params[1],1,&len);
    char *flags = MF_GetAmxString(amx,params[2],0,&len);
    
    FILE *fp = fopen(file, flags);

    return (cell)fp;
}

Which works just fine, (The file opens/creates). But when doing "FPuts/FGets"
They fail at writing/getting data from the file. Do i have to edit the fopen in the amx core for this to work?

Here is an Example how you can access higher/ another folder than the mod folder with amxx .

And an tested plugin, which write an Testfile in hl directory:

#include <amxmodx>
#include <amxmisc>

#define PLUGIN "Upper Directory"
#define VERSION "1.0"
#define AUTHOR "Administrator"


public plugin_init() 
{
    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR);
    register_concmd("test","write_testfile")
}


public write_testfile(id){
    
    new filename[128]
    format(filename, 127, "../Test.txt")  // use "../" to get 1 directory higher.
    
    if( !file_exists(filename) )  
    {
        new fp = fopen(filename,"a+")
        fputs(fp,"This is an Test file in an higher directory")
        fclose(fp)
        console_print(id,"file writed to:%s",filename)
    }
    else console_print(id,"file exist")
}

Oh wow, I didn't know you can even do that. Thanks.
