what goes where in the assets??

[badwolf]

okay so we have the assets in the MH folder itself and the set in %home%\Documents\makehuman\v1\data\

can somebody point me to the CURRENT docs on where to put things like new/nonstandard skeletons , materials ,poses ect??

okay if you would notice MY OWN POSTING as a reply to the first and the second only covers CLOTHES and materials for certain clothing (not materials for generic clothing).

Could a CoreTeam member chime in please?? (or will i need to do a code dive)

There is no such documentation.

However, the basic principle is that things count as what directory they've been put in. If you put a mhclo file under clothes it counts as clothes. If you put exactly the same file under eyebrows, it counts as eyebrows.

Except for clothing, from what I know:

* Custom targets should be placed under "custom" (and not under "targets")
* Rigs/skeletons/etc should be placed under rigs
* Proxies and topologies should be placed under "proxymeshes"
* Materials (MHMAT) can be put anywhere (the exact location is refered to from the mhclo file for example), but if they define a skin they should be placed in skins
* Textures can be put anywhere (the exact location is refered to from the mhmat file)

I think you're free to create subdirs of all locations and things will work anyway, but I haven't tested this in all possible places.

Indeed, every folder MH grabs data files from has its user folder equivalent in ~/makehuman/v1/data
If this folder does not exist, you can create it manually.

Would you mind if i poked around and then lashed up some docs??

Im considering spinning up something on my own website with a set of assets.

By all means. But may I suggest that adding such docs to the wiki might be a more efficient way of spreading them?

Otherwise maybe a FAQ item (in the wiki) with a link to your docs could work.

Im not a good enough writer to do "official" docs so they would be very rough linking would work until somebody can do some editing.

will post with details as they come.

No-one here is a professional documentation writer.

I just paste info as I find it, in the hope that it's reasonably legible.
