Help Forum Metarooms   1 | 2 | 3 Malkin Manager     7/30/2009 Right click on ENGINE, there should be a dropdown menu with something like Get Info, File Information, Program Properties, etc - something that implies it's going to tell you about the file. you can then tell if it's an executable file. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   7/31/2009 The nly option is properties, and it says it's an application, not much more. How do I tell if it's executable? beep   Wiimeiser   7/31/2009 Kill Hots the injector? Hashikin ko Tyni Kong Taria Haju'Rumia'an Klodz'Proddi. Terdish oxen saur yessi atai Kongo Dolpik!   Malkin Manager     7/31/2009 if it says it's an application, then it's an .exe, an executable application. That's the one you want to fix, according to the instructions on the official page. My TCR Norns   Wiimeiser   7/31/2009 Try Installblast. That has a version (mine is 1.0.0.2). That's as close as you'll get I'm afraid... Hashikin ko Tyni Kong Taria Haju'Rumia'an Klodz'Proddi. Terdish oxen saur yessi atai Kongo Dolpik!   LoverIan   7/31/2009 Malkin, It won't let me move the icon into the start area at the lower left of my computer. I re-launched it once, and metarooms still don't appear, also, no update. Wiimeister, LOL, ROFL, the page says install blast doesn't work anymore, because: A: something about gameware purchasing DS from CL and the update server won't work anymore or something like that B: If install blast worked, this topic WOULDN'T BE HERE, BECAUSE if it worked, IT WOULD HAVE UPDATED, it says on Creature Labs' help page, I need to delete a file THAT CONNECTS TO INSTALL BLAST, MEANING Install blast DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE. Sorry, though honesty, it was funny and frustrating at the same time. EDIT: I saw a second post, and Wiimeister, what is kill hots? beep   Malkin Manager     7/31/2009 Try using engine.exe instead of whatever shortcut you're currently using to launch DS. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   7/31/2009 I double clicked engine .exe already, still no metarooms showing up, I tried that before you told me to double click engine .exe beep   EmergencyTowel   7/31/2009 that would be that engine.exe (executable,figured It might be fun to know.) In my nerd cave, nobody can hear you scream. Feed my pets: Shroomy and Glow!   LoverIan   7/31/2009 Thanks for the fun fact! beep   EmergencyTowel   7/31/2009 that would be the exe. exe means executable. its an application. I beleive the one that starts the game is the exe,and the other one the engine updater. In my nerd cave, nobody can hear you scream. Feed my pets: Shroomy and Glow!   LoverIan   7/31/2009 I think you just said that beep   Malkin Manager     7/31/2009 So, using ENGINE should fix your problems with InstallBlast, yes? My TCR Norns   LoverIan   7/31/2009 well, I said I've used it (Engine.exe), and still no metarooms. Good news is I finally got new breeds, I forgot to click the installer for the breed installation I downloaded on Creatures Labs. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 But using ENGINE has fixed your problems with InstallBlast? Also, yay for breeds! My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 Now there's NO install blast. Using engine just starts the game, no update, no nothing, no more error message, but my game won't update. I almost could have gotten a astro norn, but the installer tingy is damaged or something. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Game doesn't need to update - just use ENGINE. Just use the agent file and place it in your My Agents folder - it should show up in Muco after that. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 ^LOL, do you actually mean muco the egg layer?! Oh it's for teh astronorn, I don't really need it. I more need a way to KILL norns now. Papriko said toxic stuff is good, but how do I find toxic stuff. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Yes, I do mean Muco the egglayer. :/ I thought you were still having trouble installing metarooms and agents? The Garbage Dump is good, as are the agents that come with the Plague Ettins. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 I am having trouble installing agents and metarooms, the garbage dump is one of the metarooms I was trying to download. Where do I find plague ettins? Originally i thought you meant that the egg layer would install the metaroom, I lol'd when I realized you meant the egg layer is for astro norns. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Could you please download the Astro Norn agent file and place it in your My Agents folder. Close down DS if you're playing it, then reopen DS, and cycle through Muco's breeds. If the Astro Norns show up, then there isn't a problem with your My Agents folder. The Plague Ettins' Creatures Wiki page will tell you where to get them from. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 Ok! EDIT: I thought you meant to take the linux download version, I don't have linux, so, Astro norns didn't appear. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Yes, download the 'linux version' - it should really be called the 'manual install version', as it is the same as the .exe file, but you just have to put it in the My Agents folder yourself. The 'linux version' will work on Mac, PC and Linux. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 I put it there, didn't work Also, are you interested in the new RP thread, I bet your a good rper! beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Where is your "My Agents" folder? Also, Lol, no, I'm a cruddy RPer. XD My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 Well I don't see what differance that makes but it;s in this folder, with all the other folders. How bad? Trust me, you can't be THAT BAD. I've been on Neopets, and they have some horrible rper's. EVEN the lit and Semi-lit topics are littered with chatspeak. I bet your great! beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Which folder, with all the other folders? :/ My TCR Norns   EmergencyTowel   8/1/2009 tahts the exe. Exe means executable. The other one is likley to be the engine updater. In my nerd cave, nobody can hear you scream. Feed my pets: Shroomy and Glow!   LoverIan   8/1/2009 The folder is like called objects or something, basicly most every basic folder, sound, my worlds, images, sprites, my agents, users, etc. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 This is roughly what my My Agents folder looks like - I'm on a Mac, so it will look different to yours. What image processing programs do you have on your computer? I'd like you to upload a screenshot to ImageShack. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 remember no paint, then again I could take a picture save it to adobe or something like that. I'm just lazy right now Also, 0_o, that's really different. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 I need to see how your system is set up in order to help you - I suspect you may be saving your files in the wrong location and so they do not show up in the game. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 God, this feels like this will never end, right now my mind feels tired, as if it wants to give up. I have windows XP btw. beep   Malkin Manager     8/1/2009 Then just leave it for now, and we can come back to it tomorrow. At least we've got the installblast issue fixed. My TCR Norns   LoverIan   8/1/2009 Yah, we've made enough progress, and actually maybe we can try again the day after tomorrow, I feel lazy right now, I just ate some really good fish, and when that happens I feel like napping a lot and being lazy. beep   prev | 1 | 2 | 3 | next
