Hi All,
We are currently in a co-producion of a 3D project with another animation studio and we are currently undergoing the transfer of assets for animation - as they are based in a separate geographic location.
We have setup all of our maxfile assets so they are looking to relative paths for textures and xrefs. When we open these files on another/new pc, we have to set the root or project folder in order for the relative paths to work correctly. However - every time we do this Max creates the default set of folders (autoback/scenes/images etc.) and it is not what we need.
Ideally everyones project folder should already be looking at the correct location (which is based in a universally recognisable path i.e. C:\PROJECTS\PROJECT_TITLE )
What is the best way to set this up for all of our artists that will be working on this project - whereby they won’t need to manually specify the project folder and evade the creation of these troublesome folders. Would it be through an edit of each INI file or is there a better way through automation?
Thanks!
