Scene description author default changing?

Postby cdh473 » Sun Sep 20, 2009 8:54 pm

How do I change the default author of the scenes when I save them.
Overriding it works, too.
Thanks.
Please excuse my posts. I am extremely stupid.

Well... Buy Algodoo again with YOUR NAME and not whoevers name it was you bought it with. I used my grandmothers credit card, but put my name down and it worked just fine.

Also, there is already like 8 topics about this.

OR... You could just rename it whenever you go to save a scene... Very simple. You had to do that in Phun, whats different with Algodoo?

I was thinking there was some place in the Algodoo files to change for this :\

There is, in the config file you can view the authorID. But I have no idea what nasty things could happen to your license if you change this. I would change mine from my real name to my online username, but I don't want to get downgraded to the demo! :wtf:

This issue will be dealt with in the patch. As it is now, write your name for every scene.
