New project folder structure
I want to create a custom data path for my project. When I create it using Esenthel, it creates the folder with only few data folders (Anim, Mtrl, Obj, World) and an "engine" file. But in the EsenthelEngineSDK/Data, there are much more folders (Enum, Env, Gfx, Gui, Music, Shader, Sound, Video...).

The first thing I would like to know is, if I can create a new project with the same folder structure? Do I need all of those folders or the 4 defalut created by the engine are enough?

The second thing...where in my project folder can I have C++ and other script files saved?

Thank you smile

Hello,

You don't need other folders, but you can create them.

It's recommended to not store source code in the Data folder so you won't include the source code accidentally in your final game release.

Please check how other tutorials use the folder layouts (SDK Tutorial, Esenthel RPG 2, Esenthel MMO, Bloody Massacre)
