Installed, Excited, Screaming Halt

Hi,
Okay, I have spent the last 2 months doing tutorials, reading books, hooking up the plug-ins for Maya and really getting a firm handle on C++ and scripting.
I am ready to use Torque to create a simple prototype of a training simulation based on a FPS. I want to create a directory where all my development can be done. I want to create this directory away from my C drive to another local drive that gets backed up every evening.
My Question is: What do I need to copy over to this new drive and directory so that I can start working on this project?

I already have a 400 GB secondary HD. This is the one that gets backed up. With this drive in place, do I really have to re-partition?

If you are just using the starter kits (fps/racing), just copy the example folder to a new folder on your other hard drive.
If you want to compile the source, then you will need to adjust your ide and make files to point to the new folder on what ever drive you want. You can use the installer and place the torque files anywhere.

That helps a lot. So just copy the example folder to the other drive. Create a sub-folder for my project and then get going.

I changed the the main.cs file in the example folder to load my copy.
I can easily work on my own version of the starter.fps this way and leave the original alone.

I created another folder inside the example folder which contained the files of the starter.fps (copy).I changed the the main.cs file in the example folder to load my copy.
I can easily work on my own version of the starter.fps this way and leave the original alone.
