Installing Custom levels NEw PROBLEM

by James Felt · in Marble Blast · 10/08/2010 (2:49 am) · 6 replies

I have downloaded everything and understand everything, but when I try to put the files into the "custom" folder, or even any file, it says "The file '[some file]' could not be moved because 'custom' cannot be modified." PLEASE HELP

If the Marble Blast folder is in program files and you aren't on an admin account, I think its only read only. Maybe try moving it to My Documents or somewhere where you have write privileges. Or you can get the computer owner to upgrade your account to an administrator account.

I have a mac, any ideas? I did show package contents, and I did notice something that said "everyone: read only" and "unknown read only" and "jamesfelt (me) read and write"

I am the ownner of the computer and am logged on as an admin.

Also, I tried copying the folder (by drag and drop) to desktop, and put the levels/interiors in the copied folders on the desktop, but they werent transferred to the real one, and I could not move them to it.

Make sure that you can read and write the custom folder, right-click or ctrl click and select "Get Info". Go down to Sharing & Permissions and make sure ' (your account) (me) ' can Read & Write.

BUMP
If you can read & write, then you may put in the file, but make sure that it isn't in the Package Contents of the game.
