Project

A Project is a folder on disk where you keep the assets used in your stream (sets, props, avatars, and live scenes) together. On the Project page of the Remote app, you open a single folder, and its contents appear in a list so you can load and manage them all in one place.

What Is a Project?

A project is a single folder on the file system. You can place the following kinds of files in it.

KindFileRelated page
Set.set.lsbStage
Prop.prop.lsb / .glb / .gltfProps
Avatar.vrm / .avatar.lsb
Live Scene.live.jsonLive Scenes

When you open a project folder, the Studio app crawls the folder and registers the supported files in the list. At this point they are not loaded yet (unloaded state); you select the ones you need and load them to use them.

Opening a Project

Project operations are only available while connected to the Studio app. When not connected, it shows "Connect to a Studio to manage assets."

  1. From the three-dot menu at the top of the page, choose Open Project Folder.
  2. In the folder picker, select the folder that holds your assets.
  3. The path of the opened folder is shown under the Project Folder heading, and its contents appear in the list.

When you have not opened a folder yet, it shows "No project open."

Managing Assets

Operate on each asset from the list of the opened project.

  • Load / Unload: Use the icon on each asset to toggle loading and removing. Props and sets can be loaded several at a time. Only one avatar is active at a time (radio selection).
  • Edit details: Selecting an asset shows its details (property editor) in the pane on the right.
  • Open a live scene: For a live scene item, choosing "open" switches to that live scene (it does not have a load/unload toggle).
  • Rescan: If you add or remove files in the folder externally, use the Rescan button to re-scan the folder and refresh the list.
  • Delete File: For now, only preset files (.preset.json) can be deleted from the list via Delete File. Deleting removes them from disk permanently.

Relationship to Other Pages

When you open a project, the assets registered here are also fed to the Stage, Props, and Avatar pages.

  • Project page … a single list that handles every kind together (the master view).
  • Stage … the page that handles only sets (.set.lsb).
  • Props … the page that handles only props (.prop.lsb / .glb).
  • Avatar … the page that handles only avatars.

In other words, each dedicated page is a view filtered by kind of the assets in your project. As long as a project is open, you can pull the same materials from any of these pages.
