photoshop save as with relative path.

malcolm

Is there any way to do a save as with a relative path? What I'm trying to do is create an action that takes an open psd file and saves it as a tga file, the problem is when I record the save as command it always hardcodes where the file is to be saved. I would like to work in any folder and use the same action instead of having to update my action every time I am working with textures in different folders. What would solve the problem is if there was just a convert to tga format command.

The script HarlequiN wrote in this thread is awesome:

I think what vSavePSDTGA does is pretty much what you're looking for right?

Yeah that script will do exactly it. Just set up vSavePSDTGA with the options you want, and then assign a hotkey (action) to vQuickPSDTGA.

vTools is probably what was mentioned in that thread.
