How can i move my shapespark scene directory location to lan server

1

Hi, my organization wants to move Shapespark project files to a LAN server. Is this possible? I am asking for collaboration purposes.

Yes, it’s possible to change the scenes directory, see: Change default folder location - #2 by jan

However, your team must be very careful not to edit the same scene on two machines at the same time, as it may lead to scene data corruption.

Considering I could only move the directory on local drives, how can I move it to our local area network server to access it from different computers?

Not sure if this helps - I have shapespark folder inside dropbox folder, local drive E:\Dropbox\Shapespark to be specific. This works with shapespark on different machines as long as the location of DB folder is the same (so drive e:)

@Zando Thanks for the reply, but we are not using any cloud storage options like Dropbox.

In Windows you can access a shared network drive using \\<server-name>\<folder-name> path. Since config.json (being a JSON file) requires backslashes to be duplicated, enter each backslash twice, eg. \\\\server\\projects\\Shapespark
