[Bug Report] Faulty GamePath hendling

[nilBrain]

The path specifications are not referenced to the BaseGame. Example:

I3D Shader Settings | Shader Source: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Farming Simulator 22\data\shaders\vehicleShader.xml

Add-Ons | FS Data Folder: D:\Program Files (x86)\Farming Simulator 2022\data\

When exporting, the Shader Source path is used and not the Game Data Path.

Do you have FS in two places? Or how did you end up in a situation where selecting a shader from the game doesn't have the same path as the game? If I recall correctly the shader export code does compare it's own paths with the FS Data folder and correctly does the $Data replacement, but in your case the paths aren't the same and thus it considers the shader to be a custom shader and tries to copy it. But apparently the folder path you have selected the shader from doesn't actually exists?

@NMC-TBone I know that you are looking into this a bit. PR #170 is tangibly related to this and if it isn't already solved by your solution, it should at least be consider to get that one out of the way as well in the same go 😅

It is a Team File... Member01 started ingaming, handed it over to me. He has FS in Steam, I from the eShop.

When several People are working on a blend file, it becomes quite exhausting to always adjust the path 😅

Ahhh, that has never been supported by the shader picker though, by (poor) design 😆 But we are looking into changing it 👍🏻

On top of the shaders I suppose using images from the $data folder would also be a problem for sharing .blend files in a team. It should be fairly easy to check and fix that though: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/280337/find-missing-files-per-script
