This program is obsolete!

Please download ICU to get the newest version of this tool.

 

The same day I got LEGO Island (December 25, 2012), I wrote this small Inno Setup "program" to move the LEGO Island Save Games. This is possible by modifying a registry string that defines where the saved are located.

... Ok, seriously now, is it neccissary to create entire programs just to change registry values? First a stand-alone program that toggles a value to window the thing, now an entire program just to change a file path? Regedit does a lot more than changing a single value... I honestly doubt many people here need individual tools made to only change individual things, all of which can already be altered by one single and simple yet powerful program included with the OS...

Edit: Random idea - instead of making a bunch of programs that don't do much besides change one value and look fancy while doing it, why not make a sort of "advanced configuration" program that does everything in one package? Like the config program included with the game but providing additional options like windowed mode, save location, etc - now THAT could be a handy tool - for those with a case of Regeditophobia anyway. :P

This would also be useful for people who don't want to take the time to edit the registry manually. There's no point in making all of these programs separately, as it takes away the benefits of an advanced configuration program.

Actually guys, I was already thinking about a config utility instead of separate programs. I thought of it last it last night while I was uploading this. I'll merge the tools soon. I might make one more tool to change the Island Quality (since there is another value then what is available in CONFIG.EXE) or some other value.

If I learn some more Python code, I may end up (re)writing it in Python rather than Inno Setup. ;)

Yes, guys. I will be writing this into a LEGO Island Config Utility later. However, I caught a really bad bug.

I was using the path specified in diskpath to find the save games. This works, until you use the tool, move them and play, then want to move them again. At that point, it will copy the old saves from the game files instead of of your new ones. I've just fixed this error. Download link is on the Topic Post.
