Doing that did cross my mind but it was around 1am when i wrote the 
message and was too sleepy to look there ;). Those were set correctly by 
me except the project overloaded them so i thought "Why look there? That 
can't be the problem." :). It includes correctly now, thanks.

Thanks! I just write in the name of the project and it works.

Well the problem was that i OPENED a project .. i didn't CREATE one.
I copied one from the examples folder :) The path wasn't filled in for me.

I already knew how to set those it just didn't cross my mind as they 
"should already be correct".
