Keep a folder structure like this.

I tried this but the projects are multi-software so this quickly becomes useless as you have 20 different file formats and need them all under one project

this is one project as well. The larger project name is hidden under the red line that i crossed out.

thanks
i really have to organize my shit. my files are scattered all over my computer and it sucks to search for them

I try to keep a pretty flat folder structure, usually not more than only two folders deep. I don't care if my /textures folder ends up with a thousand files as long as I can type "gra" and filter to the grass textures. Easier than figuring out if the grass is in a "plants" folder or "floors" folder.

/projects
/projects/project name

/assets
/assets/textures
/assets/models
/assets/materials
/assets/brushes
/assets/kits (kit bash)

This and if possible don't keep it on the main drive so you can organize it easier

I make a main folder in which I save my progressive maya or blender files
Inside it I usually have a sep folder for any brush work
Another for any uv work
Another for any substance painter texture work
And even though it’s slower these files are all on an external hd
Main hd stays lean
