Hi.

I would like to know how to create a folder inside the model's folder to put the .post.msh and .post.res files. Also, when i change pre -> post inside GiD, how GiD will know the new directory of the .post.msh and .post.res files?

GiD won't find your files if you move them to another sub-folder, it expect these exact names
<modelname>.post.res
and <modelname>.post.mesh (if required because is different of the preprocess mesh)

If do you have multiple result or mesh files, e.g. a mesh by time step, or splitted partitions of the mesh for parallel simulation, then can use as alternative a list file
<modelname>.post.lst
that has a header, and then the list of relative filenames of results to be read, then is common to be stored in a subfolder.
