  • Maxscript - Good place to save ini? and permissions?

    Hi all

    I have a script that lets the user choose a bunch of settings. I then want to store that in an ini file (the easy part).
    The question is, where's a good place to then store that ini file for reading later?

    I was thinking inside the root of max or perhaps in scripts in the root? How would I handle permissions for it then?
    Any advice or suggestions?
    Kind Regards,
    Morne

    I think you should be using something like:
    Code:
    C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2016 - 64bit\ENU\MySettings
    I don't think you need permission to write to there and all the setting would be specific to each user.

      I have a similar script and I let users choose where to save from a "save file" dialogue. So they can save these settings and load them later as preset.

        We prefer server location, so everybody in the team is accessing.
