I downloaded a torrent which had the full game. I think that's why it's not working
EDIT: My sister downloaded the game. She's not too good with torrents but it's fine. I no longer play this game so you don't need to worry anymore. Thanks for helping guys c:

1.You can't trust Torrents, because they may be Virus filled.
2.When you can, BUY IT! They worked hard to make that game, you know.
3.Torrents may have cheap or non-suitable things inside (see 1) Chances are something got in the tool, or...you haven't edited anything have you?
4.I think this happened to another player.... Try looking up your problem in the search bar to your right. You might find it.

I can't find it

Try copying the directory for the profile from GooTool, pasting it into Windows Explorer/Finder/whatever, then decrypting it. If it has a long list of levels and a string of meaningless numbers (the tower), then it's some other problem. If there are only 3, then it's looking at the wrong directory.
Another Planet finally has an official release! Download chapters 1 through 3 here! Thank you for waiting so long while I kept starting over.

I can't find my profile; could you tell me in which folder is?
I'm new with the GooTool.

Well, it depends on where you got the game from, and what OS you are using.
If in Windows Vista or 7, try C:\Users\Application Data\Local\2DBoy\pers2.dat
Of course, you'll have to go in the "tools" menu in your file browser, select "Folder Options", and change it so you can see hidden files and folders. (I forget exactly how, I'm on Linux at the moment)

I can't find the 2D Boy folder at the Application Data Folder.
I'm using Windows 7.

C:\Users\Yourname\AppData\Local\2DBoy I think is the path. AppData is hidden, you have to set some admin-only properties in the control panel to get to it. Also, if you run GooTool, you can just copy-paste the path from the text box.

I think his trouble is that GooTool isn't automatically finding his profile, and that he's having to locate it manually.
Here's a bunch of common profile locations: http://www.goofans.com/developers/game-file-formats/profile-file-format

""HELP
GooTool is really buggy on Windows 7. Maybe you should try to make a separate version specifically for Windows 7 because compatibility mode itself won't work!
Trying would be easy if you had a virtual PC: http://dlc.sun.com/virtualbox/vboxdownload.html
You need the Windows 7 ISO but you can download that either as a torrent or sending me files to evaluate because I installed it a week after it came out."
that's what you get for using windows!
The last of the goo balls didn't seem to nodice...
That my sandbox was right here! (Link will come when done)

I have Windows 7 and GooTool works perfectly. Maybe it would help if you create a separate forum thread and describe your problem with logfile attach to it

Actually, looks like he's quoting Enchanter49's post on the first page...
aguyshat: 2 things:
1. That post of Enchanter49's was way back in Sun, 11/08/2009, practically a year ago. I think he got it sorted out by now...
2. Please, next time you quote somebody, enclose it in the quote tags to avoid confusion. (See information about quote tags here: http://goofans.com/filter/tips) Thanks!

Having installed the latest version I am curious to know why some level names appear in red (most are in black).
i.e. industrial revolution - level 1
official metal levels
pill runover (hard version)
screamers and deaths(darkness level)
hazardous bridge building(earth level)
bursted flames of fury(fire level)
power overwhelming(light level)
deep water calamity(water level)
virtual reality(wind level)
are all RED text in Gootool.

It's addins with unsatisfied dependancies... http://goofans.com/mantis/view.php?id=178
The addin xml says... depends on addin.id version x->y
And you don't have that installed / enabled in GooTool at the moment.
Select a "red one", and click "Properties".. that will show you (in red) what is missing.

@dab
Here is what gootool properties says:-
industrial revolution - level 1 <- this has bin file in wrong place, also depends on com.2dboy.forum.spazturtle.industrial (RED) [this will not play]
official metal levels - <- depends on metal sandbox (RED)
NB metal sandbox will not load - bin file in wrong place
pill runover <- depends on metal sandbox
pill runover (hard version) <- depends on metal sandbox
screamers and deaths(darkness level)<- depends on element buster
hazardous bridge building(earth level)<- depends on element buster
bursted flames of fury(fire level)<- depends on element buster
power overwhelming(light level)<- depends on element buster
deep water calamity(water level)<- depends on element buster
virtual reality(wind level)<- depends on element buster
So this is apparently a mixed set of messages. The two levels with RED text dependencies highlight bin file errors.
The rest have BLACK text dependencies and don't have any problems loading and playing. element buster also loads and plays.
Hope this is clear.

Not 100%.. but....
1) Metal Levels
inwog just updated Metal Sandbox to v2.2 which is GooTool 1.0.3 compatible.
DL and Install that to solve Metal Levels + Pill Runover issues
2) Industrial Revolution - L1
Was highlighted in red, because you didn't have the depends Industrial Revolution ball mod.
Now.. you have that addin, but you get "Bin files in override" error...
I'm flagging that in my incompatible goomods thread.... here
3) Element levels
Was red because you didn't have "element buster" installed
All fixed and working now you do.
Correct?
Mon, 10/18/2010 - 13:08
1) YES correct. The new version (it's not in gootool updates) now installed. Text turned black.
2) NO - it's just the bin files error (I believe) This only RED text left.
3) NO - element buster was/is on my system and in gootool. So it's installed but not enabled. I enabled it and the red text changed to black.

I have a friend who wants to run WOG in his computer with GooTool, but he has the same problem I had with the profile but with Windows XP. Could you give me the path for Windows XP, please?

Prior to version 1.10 it was stored in the All Users profile under %ALLUSERSPROFILE%, e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\2DBoy\WorldOfGoo
From version 1.10 it is stored in the user's profile under %LOCALAPPDATA%, e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\david\Local Settings\Application Data\2DBoy\WorldOfGoo

Well davidc. It seam GooTool 1.0.2 works normally. I experienced no lag in Corp. and no irrKlang.dll error massages and no World of Goo processes in background.
So itmust be something new in 1.0.3 that causes that.
Here is the log file: http://pastebin.com/sqeD0bWS

I've installed and it runs correctly, I even managed to get the backup from steam properly. But when I try to log in the GooFans data it says: "Couldn't log in to GooFans: Internal Server error: Undefined offset: 15 at googg.module:42 " What can I do?
Sun, 11/28/2010 - 09:58
Are you using the latest version? If yes the try the older 1.0.2v ...

Woohoo! My problem is finally fixed C:
No wonder it wasn't working. But now I have another problem D: I try to login in to GooFans on GooTool so I can publish my profile but this weird error pops up saying "Couldn't login to GooFans: Internal server error: Undefined offset: 15 at googg.module:42" What da heck ._. And I also tried your solution Pavke, but still the same error D:
The reason it was being ugly was because it was looking into the wrong pers2.dat thingymagigy. It's weird how my computer has more than 1 pers2.dat file
Sat, 12/11/2010 - 22:20
Mea culpa, the undefined offset error should now be fixed. It was a server-side error, so there's no need to downgrade GooTool.

I'm not sure, but there is a problem with calculating downloads fo Goo Tool. At the home page of GooFans, there's always 200-600 downloads of Goo Tool! I think it's impossible. Same is with Bilboards addin.

Sat, 02/26/2011 - 10:02
GooTool is set up to automatically download Billboards by default.
Also, I think GooTool is the oldest addin on the site. Originally, mods needed to be downloaded from FileFront or something similar. Only GooTool was on this site.

Of course it is safe. GooTool is the main World of Goo addin program. It was made by maker of this site: davidc
Everything on this site is safe. And I'm telling you this as a moderator who tests it all...
