Rocks and Diamonds leaves some files when run from a Win XPSP3 admin account:

----------------------------------
Ordner hinzugefügt (folders added):
----------------------------------
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds\scores
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds\scores\rnd_tutorial_niko_boehm
----------------------------------
Dateien hinzugefügt (files added):
----------------------------------
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds\scores\rnd_tutorial_niko_boehm\001.score
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds\scores\rnd_tutorial_niko_boehm\002.score
C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\All Users\Dokumente\Rocks'n'Diamonds\scores\rnd_tutorial_niko_boehm\003.score

Everything is clean when run from a limited account.
There seems to be a problem with it using the C:/docs and settings/all users/documents folder.
In my opinion its weird that the "All users" isnt localised on my german machine.

Has anyone else made that observation too?

Fix coming

I have a fix in the works for this, I'll post it as soon as I can verify it works correctly.

[EDIT] This bug is fixed in an internal build, we're waiting on the release of PAL 2.2 before making it public, so we don't need to make 2 releases one right after the other.

Has

this been fixed/released in the meantime?

Sent

I sent it to John for release a while back. Still waiting for it to drop.

Missed

I missed it earlier. I found it now and will release shortly.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

:)

In that case I am even more happy I went through my old bug reports.

Thanks.

Fixed in 3.3.0.1 Rev 2

This is fixed in today's release. Existing users get a fast-install incremental update.
