Hello, > - Request: can someone help us to add support for Windows network > UNC paths (like \\SomeHost\Share\blends\) in Blender?
The last time I checked into it there were changing all backslashes to forward slashes (both work on Windows), probably so that we could assume forward slash as the separator in other path functions. So the initial "\\" then conflicts with the "//" we use to designate "same folder as blend". There was also an assumption that all absolute paths needed to start with a drive letter and colon so we basically break the string with a bunch of over-zealous sanity checks. But I'm also pretty sure that I remember seeing at least one patch on the tracker that fixes this and allowed UNC paths...
