Library & Packs

Keep personal content

Open Settings → Library. The default library is your Documents folder's MotionDeck directory, normally ~/Documents/MotionDeck. It stores My Recipes, My Voices, imported fonts, Brand Kits and packs outside the extension. Updating or uninstalling the extension does not intentionally remove that library.

Use Show in Folder to inspect it. Choose Move Library… to move the existing content, or Use Existing Folder… to switch to an existing library. If the destination contains a different file with the same name, resolve the conflict before moving. Back up the library alongside your Blender projects and media.

Install a pack

Obtain a .mdpack file. In the Library page, choose Install from File…. Review any reported error. The installer validates the archive before installation; an invalid pack is rejected. Refresh the pack list if needed and use its enable checkbox to control whether a pack is active.

Pack IDs keep installed content separate from built-ins. A checksum detects corruption; it does not establish who authored a pack. Reserved or unknown content kinds may be reported as unsupported. Inspect the warning instead of assuming every listed asset will appear in a shelf.

Gobo folders can also be added through the Library page. Adding a gobo folder is distinct from installing a validated pack.
