Proposal for default FumeFX.ini path change - Shark - 10-24-2018
It is often difficult for a customer with a security-critical company to give administrator privileges to 3dsMax.exe in order to write to below C:\Program Files\.
Please consider changing the default FumeFX.ini location from under "C:\Program Files\" to "C:\ProgramData\AfterWorks\FumeFX for [3dsMax version]\" or 3DApp Config folder etc. for future updates.
For manners of programs, fumefx.ini should be set as a place where users can write.
I am aware that there is an environment variable FUMEFX_INI. It is a suggestion of default setting.
