████ Issue: Add-ons/Screenshots/Saves lost after update to v20

[Jasa1]

It won't affect the new version. But keep a backup if you EVER think you will want to find an old addon or config file or save.

Good point..

Just wondering, are we able to edit GUI's now?

You can quite easily via script.

If you have RTB you only need to re-active it

If only they read the updates from v19 to v20 they would know this.

Yeah, sorry to bother you badspot, but whenever I start blockland, it asks for my key and im pretty sure that no one else has this problem so I need to ask you
why its doing this and I have bought the game

I answered you in the topic. No need to post the same question in a few different places so soon between the first occurrence.

Badspot, why can't we just keep using the add-ons folder? (you know, the one in the file location of blockland)

[MegaScientifical]

Must I explain what has been said just about has many times, Joe? Windows security is tighter around Program Files, which as a side effect causes many people to have problems accessing files within it. My Documents doesn't have as many restrictions, and as with other games, Badspot decided to place the game there so people would not have as many issues.

[blockguy123]

Same.

[JakeBlade]

Thanks, this helped me out!

[JakeBlade]

But there's one thing i don't get, I'm forced to put all my addons on my C drive now? I'd rather not because of the free disk space.

Copy your files to the new location!

In v20 and up, your Blockland files are now stored in My Documents\Blockland (windows) or /Users/<your username>/Documents/Blockland (macintosh)

The update installer attempts to copy over your old add-ons/screenshots/saves but if you have installed Blockland multiple times, are installing to a different location than before or have move your Blockland folder at any time, it might not work.  You will have to manually copy over your files from your old Blockland folder to the new location in your documents folder.

Can't find old files?

If you are using Vista or Windows 7 and you previously had Blockland installed to the "Program Files" folder, windows may have moved your Blockland saves and screenshots to the "Virtual Store".  The virtual store can be found at C:\Users\<your username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore.  Note that "AppData" is a hidden folder, so you will have to show hidden files first. 

If you still can't find them you can always search for *.bls to find all Blockland saves on your computer.  In Vista/Win7, go to "My Computer" and type *.bls into the search field in the upper right.  In Windows XP press ctrl+f to open the search dialog.
