Where Files Get Stored

 
 
 

There are two types of files in Autodesk Softimage: project files and application data files.

Project files include scenes as well as any accompanying files such as texture images, referenced models, cached simulations, rendered pictures, and so on. They are stored in various subfolders of a main project folder. For more information about projects and project files, see Projects.

Application data files are not specific to a single project. They include presets and various customizations you can make or install, such as commands, keyboard mappings, toolbars, shelves, views, layouts, plug-ins, add-ons, and so on. The application data files can be stored in various subfolders at one of three locations:

When using the browser to access files on disk, you can switch among these three locations using the Paths button.
