Once you configure file locations for your project files, you must create the sub-directories for your scans manually. Lustre generates many sub-directories automatically for specific types of file.

When you create a scene in your project, Lustre generates directories for these scenes in the project directory. Alternatively, you can manually create the scene's directory and Lustre will recognize it as an existing scene directory if you later define scenes with the exact names you gave to the directories. See Working With Scenes.

Lustre stores all project metadata in sub-directories of the project directory. The metadata is saved per scene, each scene having its sub-directory. The sub-directory is created automatically and is named sacc_data.

The render directories related to the scenes are created automatically by Lustre. The directory structure differs depending on the Render Place option specified when rendering. See Specifying the Destination for Local Render Files.

In the following table, the Project Home is defined in Windows as the H:\ drive, whereas in the Linux version it is defined as the /mnt/md0/ mount point.
