As the title asks: Is it possible to train on multiple folders specifically for "INPUT A"?

I have attempted using a comma separator ' , ' a semicolon ' ; ' and a few other variations to force that action. Obviously that didnt work.

Why? I have multiple sources that I prefer to keep separated from each other. Specifically because I use them at various points in training and others need manual adjustment in the future. Additionally I have found that moving those extracts seems to break a lot of things in FS and want to avoid creating issues.

Regardless, is there a way to select MULTIPLE FOLDERS as sources for INPUT A | INPUT B during TRAINING?

Maybe this should be filed under <FEATURE REQUESTS> ?

Sadly not, and given that you are the first person I have ever seen request this kind of feature, it is unlikely to be something I will implement.

I'm curious as to what this means:

Additionally I have found that moving those extracts seems to break a lot of things in FS and want to avoid creating issues.

as it shouldn't break anything.

One potential workaround is to look at symlinking:

An (untested) method for doing symlinks on a batch of files is here:

Symlink sounds like the perfect solution to the problem I presented. I'll run it through its course and post results here.

To your question of what/which errors I had received: While moving extracted faces (to sort them), I believe I had encountered errors related to masks. Looking back and having done a bit of digging - I believe this was before FS included masks in each individual extracted file. And, more to the point, I really had no idea what I was doing then.
It's very possible that what I was doing would no longer break anything and I just continued to assume that it still would for ₂ years. Thinking about it now - I have recently moved libraries of "extracts" across disparate faster|slower drives and have not experienced errors.

Essentially I'm just a circus elephant preconditioned into a routine by a tiny rope pegged to the ground... I'll pull it out and run free someday.

Thanks for the speedy reply. Thank you for your time and effort to make this process accessible to Elephants like me. And I am looking forward to trying out the Patrion level Manual Editor Tool... that still a thing?

Yep, it was a lot more complicated when you had to keep track of alignments files for training.

Now it should be as simple as dumping any and all faces into a single folder and hitting "Train".

Hopefully the symlinks will work out for you
