What is the default path for VFB History ? Is there a way to change it ? I assume frames are stored in temp folder as i restarted my computer and my history as gone.

[x: (your root drive)]\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\[your 3dsmax version]\ENU\en-US\plugcfg\corona\history


or type %localappdata% in run and follow path.

Thanks for the reply nufu ! However, I don't know why i've lost my history, that's strange.

I did not found a way to change that path. Is it possible to do that ? My C: drive is a small SSD aimed to host OS and 3D softwares and it start to run out of space. So i would like to store those frames on another drive.

You can try this: move entire aforementioned corona folder to other disk, find latest config-xxxxx.conf file in that folder, open it with notepad, locate string "system.workingDirectory" and change path to new location. Restart max or use reset settings button in render setup>scene tab.

I'm not sure if that would work or not, never tried to do that myself, so use it on your own risk and don't forget to make copies.

I will try it but it looks a bit tricky and could potentially break things.. It would be good if we could change that path in render settings.
