Batch change dependencies?

Post by d_rylander »

I'm trying to open a TVP-project on a machine other than the one I created it on. The paths are not the same.
When opening I get a dialog telling me that it can't find the files and asks me where they can be found. Here I can change paths but it is a very tedious work to change all dependencies one by one, especially if I have to do this every time I need to work on different computers (working locally on my laptop away from my studio server right now).

I'm used to manually changing paths in project files to quickly change enviroments but even if the paths in the tvpp-files are plain text, TVP will not open an altered tvpp-file. I guess it's because most of it is encrypyted and that is not handled well when saving the file externally.

How can I batch change dependencies (or change dependencies at all besides that opening-dialog? I can't find anywhere to do this within TVP)?

Normally, if the file is in the same folder than the project, TVPA should find it.

Thanks.
It's not. I like to keep my projects neatly structured into folders. The assets will be used in other apps as well so I don't want to move them into my TVP-folder.

Now, is there a way of changing dependencies?
