Increasing the number of profilesjeanott12/13/2008 - 11:28

Hello,

We are more than three ones at home to play World of Goo, therefore how to proceed to increase the number of profiles.

Thank you for your help.

Best regards

Jean Ott

The game limits profiles to three.
But if you play under windows XP (I don"t know how it works on Mac or Windows Vista), data is stored under current windows user directory. So you can create 3 accounts for each Windows user.

you sure?  My kids XP account has access to my profile.

I didn't test but as profiles are stored in C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Application Data\2DBoy\WorldOfGoo directory, there should be one file per account.

Hello,

Thank you for your help. Unfortunately I have only one account on my computer.
As it is the only one solution, I am going to create several accounts the number of which will be the number of players divided by three.

Thanks again,

Bye
