Question about importing custom assets

[Raths Rants]

So... I am having a bit of confusion on this one. In VX/Ace we a have nice little "Resource Manager" under "Tools". This imports added assets into your project folder. I don't see this in MV. I understand the how to copy additional assets directly.

My question is with the pre-order assets. Should I be coping them into my project folder or the install folder under "NewData"?

I have searched around a bit. Seen a few things, but nothing that mentioned this directly.

Is there a post on how this should be handled with the pre-order art assets that I might of missed?

Thanks in advance

If you copy them into the "NewData" folder, they will be included in every future project you start new (and also increase its filesize, which is why they weren't placed there automatically).
It will not make them available in existing projects.


If you copy them into the project folder of an existing project, they will be available for that project (only) - no need to increase the filesize of a fantasy project by automatically including science fiction resources.

Thank you for the clarification!
