Folder Structure

#1 · 21. August 2023, 10:17

hey, it seems that some folders name are hardcoded, for example i cant get rid of 03_Production folder,

i wanted to have my folder structure like this:
@project_path@/Assets/@asset_path@
@project_path@/Shots/@sequence@

but it always force 03_Production folder

Did you update the "Assets" and "Sequences" template in the project settings. It works fine for me to delete the "03_Production" folder there. Eventually you need to restart Prism if it Project Browser doesn't refresh automatically.

i've created preset + did restart and actually got assets and shots in place i want, tho still there is some hardcoding somewhere, if you rename 00_Pipeline into something else, in my case i just renamed it into Pipeline i've ended up with structure like this

edit:
seems there is a problem with presets, it requires to have existing folder 00_Presets, if i reneme this folder on this path:
C:\Users\user\Documents\Prism2\Presets\Projects\prismTestPreset\00_Pipeline
onto
C:\Users\users\Documents\Prism2\Presets\Projects\prismTestPreset\Pipeline

then this preset is nolonger visible in preset selection while creating project,

so if i leave 00_Pipeline in preset folder, and then when creating project from this preset manually rename this folder into desired name then it seems to work

By default Prism expects the project config in the 00_Pipeline folder. If you simply rename the folder Prism won't know where the config is. You can use the PRISM_PROJECT_PIPELINE_FOLDER env var to let Prism know the name of the new folder. Alternatively you can but the config in the top-level folder of the project.

In the project json config you also need to replace the 00_Pipeline folder in the template path with your new pipeline foldername.
