I'm gonna butt in here and say that I would prefer having actual
folders to store different themes in. Say an actual folder for
space, etc.  I would prefer that over a flooded /models folder.
Just my $.02

Have you tried setting up some folders and LNK files, and • rendering
through
LDLite?  What does it make of the LNKs?

It works, I opened ldlite and moved it to a folder that had • a link to a dat
file.
It recognized it as being a link to a dat, and when I • opened, it worked.

That's Windows recognizing the LNK file, and launching the • actual DAT file
into LDLite.  LDLite doesn't know a thing about LNK files.

What I meant was whether or not LDLite would recognize a • referenced file
which was actually a LNK, not a DAT file.  So if I made a • submodel called
submodel.dat, and created a LNK to submodel, called • alias.lnk, and I tried
to use alias in an LDLite file, would LDLite resolve the • reference?  The
answer is: no, LDLite does not resolve the reference.


And say I'm working in my "Space" virtual directory and I • create a model
called Ship1.dat.  Does the actual Ship1.dat go into the • /models directory and
have a LNK file put in Space?  What if I'm then working in a • "Sea" virtual
directory and also create a model named Ship1.dat?  Does the • space Ship1.dat
get overwritten?

(...) I agree with you, but the advantage of the 'virtual folder' approach is that it would continue to work with LDraw, without any weird sub-directory references needed in multi-file models.
