You could make a temporary co-author, then I would have acces to the download page and could have a look at it. If the help is still needed.

Open the page click on edit. Tipe "goomatz" in the field below "Additional authors:" then click save.

I tried to decrypt the files. If I did something wrong in the updated version, please let me know.

The xmls are fine now, but there is a mistake in the resources. The path of SOUND_LAUNCHER_SQUEAMIN is incorrect.
And you have used some custom animations which are not included in the goomod.
Iirc Gootool doesn't support custom annimation. You could try to put them in the override directory but this may cause problems on different systems.
Other than that there are a lot of suicidal goos at the level begining. Spread the common goos to avoid that.

Yeah, I know that. but I have completed it. so it is absolutely possible

It's less about the possibility to beat the level it's more about the negative feeling a player gets when he sees lots of gooballs dieing at the levelbegining. If all the goos are not needed to beat the level they are not needed at all and can be cutted out. Wink

Oh, almost forgot, when you upload a new version of your goomod please don't forget to change the version number in the addin.xml and on the download page.

Animations and movies can be safely overridden as long as you include a 64-bit version of the movie as well. Animations are the same across platforms.

I make ball changing packs, but when I put them in gootool, it says there's no mainfest. I did everything to make the mod correctly, but it won't work.

Did you add a manifest (that's the addin.xml file)? Tongue

Looks fine to me. And it's called addin.xml in the goomod root?

It's with the override file.
I was making a ustom gooball, but none of its textures appear(Except for the eyes) What did I do wrong?

It should be in a file called addin.xml in the root of the goomod.

What do you mean. The override and the addin xml should be in a folder called...addin xml?

So, in the goomod, there should be two things: The addin xml and the override. In the override, there's the res.In the res, is the balls folder, and in the balls folder, should be names of the gooballs I want to edit. Inside each one are textures.

That's exactly what I did Stare

Can you tell me how to make a custom gooball? You know, not with gooble, but handwriting custom gooballs!

That's too difficult to do, you know. GooBLE was made expressly made to don't make you handwrite gooballs.
