Paths: Geometry Search Path

<OpenSim Install Directory>/Geometry

A list of directories separated by a semi-colon that specify where OpenSim should look for geometry files (.vtp, .stl files). When a model is loaded, the directory containing the .osim file is searched for geometry files, as well as a directory with the name "Geometry" that lives underneath it if exists. If a file is not found in these 2 locations, the directories specified in "Geomerty Path" are searched in order. The paths are specified using the Unix format and are absolute (rather than relative).
