How to add Ren'Py project folder has default search path

the 1.0.10 update includes the possibility to configure the base path of your projects, this makes it easier to navigate between folders.

Now, this configuration does not have an editable field from the app, but it is edited from a file located in the data folder.

we will go to the renxel installation path, then to the data folder and we will find a file called “settings.ini”. inside it we will see something like this:

[app]
rootFolder = None

“rootFolder” is used when the window asks where the base folder of the game is located, If it is not None, it asks for the path where you have all your renpy projects, for example:

[app]

rootFolder = G:/renpy/myprojects

then, when we run the app and we are going to choose the folder of the project which inside has a “.tab” file we can see the list of folders of all our projects, so we can select the folder of the desired project much easier and so we don’t have to travel to distant lands in search of the base folder of our project.

Important note: Do not use this variable to define the default route: G:/renpy/myprojects/myawesomegame, while you can do this, this editable variable is intended to make it easier for you to find the folder you are looking for.
