Hello,
ich want to reorganize my "saves" folder, but that would break all dependencies for custom edits, that i did.

Is it safe to open the json file with a text editor and change the paths manually? I thought i would just search for a unique name of the old folder structure and replace the path with the updated one. Anything that could go wrong?
Is there a better way to deal with that issue?
 
just to let you know: i opened the json in notepad++ to automatically replace all mentions of the old path with the new path. it seems to work.
let's hope i did not break something under the surface...
would be great if vam would ask for the new path, if it can't find a dependency. editing the json seems to work, but it is not ideal!
