TGB Level Editor in Limited account?

Can the TGB Level Editor run in a Windows XP Limited account, or does it require an administrator account?

It doesn't require any special account to run the editor, or TGB games. The Linux version I think you will need to be the administrator aka super user. Windows isn't secure enough to enforce such things ;p

But it wants to create projects under the TGB program directory. Limited accounts are not allowed to write there.

TGB 1.5 will run on limited user accounts, 1.1.3 likely won't.

Don't install it to c:/programs and you should not have any problems with restricted accounts. Install to own files and the users are actually allowed to create files ...

Tom - Thanks for letting me know it will work on 1.5.

Marc - Good suggestion. That will get me by until 1.5 is finished.
