File > Project > New |
Starts a new project. A project lets you group together all the different files needed for a scene or group of related scenes.
You can select the paths of directories for each type of file.

Options
Scenes
Specifies the directory used to save scene files. This directory normally contains only geometry information, unless you instruct Maya to put all of the information on the file into this subdirectory. You can also use this text box to enter search criteria for scene information.
Project Data Locations
Specifies the directories for files containing project textures, lights, source images, images, and render scenes.
Data Transfer Locations
These locations specify the paths to the directories containing files in formats that may require conversion.
Note
The location directories can be expanded using plug-ins. Each time you add a plug-in, the New Project window displays the addition. You can then specify the path to the plug-in’s directory.

Note
If you leave a text box blank, Maya does not create a subdirectory. If you create a scene using an unspecified project setting, Maya saves the information in the project location directory.
