I haven't used it but I seem to remember Christian Freisleder's cf_filemanagment looking useful:

I remember using one at passion picture ages ago that was pretty cool. what was cool about that one was it created the name of your file lets say, Shot_001_take_1, but it did not put the version number on, instead when it created the next version that you saved, it shifted the old one, incremented that then saved the scene again with no version number, so all your render paths from tokens held up in your scenes. in reference to this plugin https://vimeo.com/64647758 by Niclas schlapmann. now I thought this had some real potential and to be honest its pretty cool what he has achieved, but it got a little over complicated for what is needed. I don't want a Softimage folder structure for each shot as Niclas has implemented, might be really helpful on a feature length movie but for smaller work a bit to over kill. one of the older version was nearly perfect but just needed to create a neat folder structures in the overall Scene folder. like Modelling | treeA | name of file or Animation | shot001 | name of file. be awesome if something was out there or if niclas would consider doing a slightly dummed down version of his plugin. anyone got any ideas if something out there is like this or shed some light on what they use. thanks Peeps Daniel Sweeney
