I specified the e SubmitSceneGlobalBasePath path in the defaults.ini and I reload SMTD and no path loads and it errors if I submit for an invalid path.
If I check the temp folder it does show the path specified.
I tried:
SubmitSceneGlobalBasePath=“path:\to\folder”
SubmitSceneGlobalBasePath=“path:/to/folder”
SubmitSceneGlobalBasePath=“path:\to\folder”
SubmitSceneGlobalBasePath=path:\to\folder
and all the other variations I could think of.
