Hi, has anyone got LGP Tools working properly on Vista? When i try to run it and install LGP Shell Extensions i get "Installation Failed! Possible reasons: -Registry is corrupt. -LGPPROP.dll(??) was not found in the LGP Tools folder. -Could not write to System\ShellExt folder."
Without installing the extensions i can still run it and almost completele installing NPC Reconstruct project, but no matter how many times i try, i get the same "Stream read error" and it's no good, old blocky, or messed up models ingame.
So is there any other program that i can edit .lgp files(extract, recompile) with or can someone tell me how to get LGP tools working? Thanks in advance.

Try running the install program as Administrator? I don't have Vista at home, but that's what I would try.

Well obviously it didn't work out, since i'm already the administrator of this computer, i can't even check the "Run as the administrator" so no good, thanks anyway :-)
Anything else to try? :O

i havent tryed it either but i think in properties there should be run compatability with xp, 98 etc

Did you disable UAC or something? The default in Vista is that Administrators must do something special to run a program as Administrator - simply logging in as Administrator isn't enough. Right click a file and select "Run as Administrator".

Going to bump this as I have an identical problem, and curious whether you ever figured it out Claude? Also I don't think it has anything to do with admin rights for Vista, as the LGPtools runs, it just always comes up with a Stream Read Error.

If it's on Vista or not, it should still work fine, I have Vista, and LGPTools works fine for me every time. :roll:
