Lugaru debug help!!!!

Post by m0nk3y » Sun Oct 10, 2010 9:51 am

Hi, I bought Lugaru a while ago and I've been trying to figure out how to open debug mode. I'm pretty sure I did everything right, converting to plaintext, changing the only config.txt file I could find from 0 to 1, and then opening lugaru and typing ~, but nothing happens. Anyone have any idea what's wrong? I have a new Mac btw

On a new Mac, the proper config file can be found at this path:

Code: Select all

/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application\ Support/Lugaru/Data/
If you've successfully activated Debug mode, there should be some text on the screen (like your username and stuff) that wasn't there before once you start a level.

Also, you can toggle map editing mode with SHIFT-M. So if you press that in a level and there's suddenly a bunch of new text on the screen, Debug is active.

The key to press to get into the debug console for loading, saving and other stuff varies by locale. For instance, on a WinXP with a de-de keyboard, you have to press ö instead of ~. On a Mac OS X machine with the aforementioned locale, you have to press <, if I recall correctly.

You have to find the config.txt that actually controls debug. In windows it's in the app directory, but on mac and linux it's something like:

Code: Select all

/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application\ Support/Lugaru/Data/
You could try searching for config.txt to find the one that's not in the app directory.

I finally just realized
that the thing you just posted is a DIRECTORY
not a code :)

Yeah, when I say "path", I mean "directory". I'm glad you found it. Lugaru debug is fun!
