Set directory for storing prefs/tools/etc


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Our user's home directories are on the server, which means my 3dcoat prefs/textures/tools get saved over the network.

This slows the program down to an unusable level.

How do I set the directory 3dcoat uses to store this information?

I see there are config.txt and link.txt files, but I have no idea what they should contain.

Thanks,

Jamie Macdougall

Please look description at the end of document :

(Separating changed data from installed files to share data between users)

along these lines I wish the shaders foreach vox layer were saved in the scene. when I move my .3b files between machines with different shader directories. the vox layers lose all the colors I setup on each layer.

This is very helpful. Since I've set the COAT_FILES_PATH variable pointing to a local disk I haven't noticed any of the stroke delays that have been plaguing me for last couple of weeks! Brilliant!
