I know most people that released script packs would put them in (root)/Scripts/(their folder), and use a startup launcher in (root)/Scripts/Startup/, or something similar. But Vista doesn’t allow writing to Program Files (I think?), or at least it is discouraged/a pain. I assume most of us at work are using a versioned local directory that has nothing to do with Max, and calling a startup script from max to that dir, but since this is for a non-standard distribution, what is a good way around this (I don’t think people would appreciate making new folders on the C:\ drive for scripts…)?
Do you just put them in the user directory, or somewhere else? Is it worthwhile to put them in Program Files if under XP, or the user directory if Vista? If you’ve never considered this question, how would you feel about scripts and tools being installed to your user directory?
