Hi, I have already outta the game so I wanted a new level. I have installed Gootoll and installed some levels, but when saving reports: in keeponrunning IOException: Unable to parse document (com.goofans.gootool.v) Please advise. I apologize for my bad English I am from Czech Republic.

Hi, dusik!
What levels do you have installed? It may be a problem with the level itself, and we'll fix it if we know which level it is.

Welcome to goofans dusik.
That's strange, you are the first person having trouble with keep on running and I always thought it's stabil. Puzzled
What does gootool do if you disable keep on running? Is it complaining about the next level you have installed or is it running fine?
What OS ar you running?
Do you have the latest version of "World of Goo"?(check MOM4Evr's signature for the patch)

One little request on my side:If the problem is fixed, please play On the run before you play keep on running as it's the sequel of On the run.

I downloaded from http://goofans.com/download/utility/gootool I try many levels (The Superhighway of information, keep runing on, World og Goo Far Lands, ..)
it could be that in the options tab I uploaded the file for profile? I can not find it I tried different ways that I found on the internet but there's nothing I tried to look through the windows search but did not find the file pers2.dat I tried looking but I just pers2 nothing.

Hm, so it's a general problem and not the goomods.
I don't think it is something about your profile file.
Are you running gootool as administrator?

I tried, but it takes me a password. I'm not on any account passwords. I tried to leave the field blank, but I can not.,: (

I find profile file and assigned him to the options-profile but still the same message: IOException in (level name): Unable to parse document (com.goofans.gootool.v).

Ok, that's the problem.
Gootool needs admininstrator rights for adding and changing files to the game. Who installed your sytem? Ask him/her for the password.

Then you need to be logged into the administrator account in order to run it as admin.

On the computer I have 3 accounts, I tried it at all but I still own the watchtower. When I'll run it as administrator so it wants the password for me, but I do not have no respect for your password.

Well, even if you're on a limited account, you could copy C:\Program Files\WorldOfGoo to somewhere you own. Then point GooTool to that same place.

Yes, AP is right. If you place a file in a non password protected place, then GooTool doesn't need administrator priviliges.
If you're on Windows7, I suggest you to put it in Saved Games folder, that one in your user folder.

I copied the folder from C :/ WorldofGoo program files into their documents. When I enter in Gootoll custom options in World of Goo path where the files I copy it writes: You can´t install to same directory that World of Goo's already in! Make a new directory

Joined: 09/01/2009

Right. So make a new (empty) directory elsewhere in your documents, and point GooTool's custom directory there. The point the "World of Goo Installation" to the folder in your documents that you copied World of Goo to.

Copy World of Goo to your desktop.
Make an empty folder on your desktop.
Point GooTool to those. Don't use Program Files.

Copy World of Goo to your desktop. From program files? WorldofGoo.exe?

I've had the issue a lot. It was a pers2.dat error but for this case, it just seems to be an admin rights issue. If the tower is yours and you still have an OS disk, you may be better off backing up you data and reinstalling the OS. Or try simpler ways like Logging in to the Administrator account or using a live CD to clear the password.

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)? and copy the folder called WorldOfGoo to the desktop. Now go into the folder and double-click WorldOfGoo.exe to run it.

What's next? This starts the normal game but I want to add these new levels. Please write me again at the most detailed instructions. I'm from Czech Republic and understand English very well (I use google translate)

Joined: 08/06/2010

So now point GooTool at the copy on the desktop.
