Suggestion: allow the user to define a custom "assets" folder for the game. Is there some reason why this is not possible? My C: drive is small, basically only to hold OS files and some specific programs. If I try dumping a bunch of video and audio files in there to use in VotV, I'll quickly chew up the remaining space.

EDIT: Related to additional "assets" functionality, is there any chance of the game recognizing more file formats? Video is specifically what I'm thinking of, since many videos I have are other common formats, like AVI or MKV. I realize I could convert them, but now I would have to have multiple copies of various things floating around on drives just to use one in VotV. To be fair, I have no idea if this is just something the dev didn't consider or some kind of limitation that can't be worked around.

If you have administrator permissions, you can replace an 'Assets' folder with symlink (not just a shortcut) named 'Assets' that links to a folder on another drive

Heard, thank you. Never really encountered use of this before, I'll look into it. Quick look at how to set it up implies I might not even have to make a symlink folder at the other end, and that I can create direct links to files. That would be better, as most of my data is organized into various folders and subfolders on a specific drive.
