max temp folder on C: movable?

[Anonymous]

Hello;

We are experiencing full disks at work due to IT giving our C: size 100Gb to install only software.

ofc this leads to problems and we created a second 😧 disk to dump our temp files from photoshop and such.

There is a problem with Max though, I tried moving our "standard project folder" from max where all our autosaves go and such, too the 😧

but the following folder is dumping up to 10Gb of dumpage while we work and I'm wondering if it's possible to reconfigure this folders position to the 😧 as well?

C:\USER\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMaxDesign\2015 - 64bit\ENU\temp

this folder path contains alot of junk that loads while working and unloads when we close max.

Is this configurable?

It's a bunch of .tmp files (see screenshot)

Did you try Customize/Configure System Paths?

the previous post will allow you to change this path

You can disable the bitmap pager in 3ds Max.  It's on by default.

You could also edit your 3dsmax.ini file to choose a different location.  Just open the INI file in Notepad and search for TEMP, it should come up right away.  Then type in the new location there.
