If you've downloaded my Hand Ninja skopes, you'll notice that the Animations/Keyframes are in a seperate folder, outside of the "characters" folder. I now have two folders for my characters, my "characters" folder, and my "characters_cannonfodder" folder. I don't know if anyone else has done this yet, but I've been trying to get this to work for a looong time now.

This is what the hero file for the new folder looks like.

Quotelibrary\characters_cannonfodder\VVV_Hand_Archer\character.nif

For me, this may be time consuming to set up, but it makes thinkgs easier to find and seperate. Hope this info can help others in some way.  :thumbup:

Hmm,  does this help out when making new characters in the game? like are there multiple custom folders you can go through? this would be useful if i was doing a marathon session of creating characters of a particular team or company.

Once I get the base of the hero file set up with EZ Hero, then I can do the rest in game like normal, but I haven't found a way to use the seperate folders with the game itself.

OK cool. i wonder then, using ezhero you could probably point to any folder for the contents then.... even a characters folder on the desktop.
