Hi,
how can I save my own material and model library, for upcoming updates and new installation?
Is there a special file, that I can copy?

Hi Flamingo,

I also have a custom library. The standard location should be located in your install folder, for example :
C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\D5 Render\library

You have the possibility to change the location BUT before doing that you should backup your current library so you donā€™t lose any files. I have my library rerouted to a extra HD. To change the location. Go to ā€˜localā€™ see icon with three sliders and click ā€˜settingā€™ from there you can reroute. BUT donā€™t forget to backup first before changing.

That sounds good. Thank you.
I am going to check this.

So the best way is to copy the files to extern HD, and after installing D5 I can paste it again to the same folder.
Is this correct?

That worked for me. I also copied the files on my secondary drive afterwards in D5 i changed the path of the folder on my secondary drive and then i copied the files in the new folder. I copied the material folder and the objects folder with the submaps.

If you need help flamingo i can show you via screenshots or teamviewer.
