Hi guys,
I am trying to set the directory that the file -> open (and save etc) dialogue first displays. I know that this can be done using the command:
setDir <file path> #scene
which as I understand it directly manipulates the 3dsmax.ini file. However if you then open another max scene from outside that folder, then any further file -> opens see the location of the new max scene displayed, rather than the one I just set. Is max storing this new folder location in a temporary variable somewhere? and if so can I manipulate this variable. I am pretty sure that it does something like this, cause I remember reading it somewhere, but I cannot for the life of me find it in the maxscript help.
If anyone knows what I am waffling on about and can help, then please shout out the answer, cause this is becoming incredibly frustrating.
Thanks for your time everyone!
