Gem utility for Totem Tribe

I used the utility but got as far as the data folder.I dont see anything that says profile.I can find it without using the utility but when it's opened it comes up as word pad coded gibrish.:confused:

oh...and I have xp

If you have xp your profile.dat file should be here. C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Enkord\Totem Tribe

when I ran the utility and clicked the "open" tab,it pulled up the data file. In there were....cfg, effect,font,gui. language, level, object, sound and texture, but no profiles or anything near to saying profiles. If I click the go back(back arrow) to the totem tribe file, the "look in" window has totem tribe and in there,says data and license. I even clicked the data file but it brought me back to the original window that it opened up at running of the utility. Still nothing about profiles.:confused:

I had uninstalled 1.0 and deleted all files I could find before re-installed 1.03. I just uninstalled and reinstalled 1.03 again this morning. For some reason, the old profiles from 1.0 and my last 1.03 game were still available from the game start menu. I deleted them from within the game. Now there is no profile file showing at all, where there used to be one. My directory path is slightly different because I bought the game through Shockwave (would have come here first if I had known better but I learned about the game through Shockwave). Where might the profile file be hidden? The former path looked like this: C:\Program Files\Shockwave.com\Totem Tribe\product\data Even if I go up to the Totem Tribe directory, there is no profile file. I did create a new profile so there should be one there. Now I can't even use the gem utility.

ok,this is crazy...somehow I can't find the file by the simple method as explained on here BUT.... I did a file search and found it immediately(as before)and instead of trying to open it from there as I did before,and getting the note pad giberish,I copied the file and put it into a place where I'm very familiar.Then useing the utility and knowing exactly where it was........ It worked! Ha! sheez.... My mother was right all along, I guess, saying that I had to do everything the hard way :rolleyes: hmm... now I'm wondering if I'm color blind since most of the missing gems are green:p Ok... ready to go gem hunting now. Thanks for putting up with me..:o

AmyS, you are looking in the wrong place.

wow...found all the missing ones except the white in cradle of the north. Cant find that last one anywhere. grrr....maybe another day

thank you so much AmyS! I was having the same problem til I did the file search as you suggested and I was able to find my Totem Tribe player profile! Thanks again :)

Yay! coolio.yw:D

;) yup.thought it would be that way.:)

However in that case you will have to copy that file each time you make progress in the game and want to use utility again.

Have you tried destroying all towers/buildings you built? Also I found some by clicking around Totem places and other sites where you might miss seeing a gem because you were busy doing something else at the time, like trying to find the Monkey's spot. Cheat of Last resort highlight area below for answer Have you tried painting your gems' background? Search here or Big Fish forums for instructions. If you have XP its not that hard... Saved my sanity.:o

yep.. found them all .The white one was the hardest but I could have kicked myself... I have no idea why I did not find it earlier. It was hiding behind my little map. duh,on me! I did find 2 behind buildings though.

Yeah I suddenly noticed gems hidding in plain sight too:confused: I choose to think that the game designers simply have some gems on timers that must be triggered by "units" in certain areas. :rolleyes: Whether or not this true, my ego prefers to believe it:D

Does utility tell you how many gems and of what colors are on each island, what you've found or what you're missing? i thought it was supposed to be what was missing, but my Rainbow Road is at 91% and when i run the utility it seems to be giving me how many are on each island. i also wanted to thank you, I was getting very frustrated and your posts have been extremely helpful.

How many times have you started a new game? How many profiles did your gem utility find? I had to delete all but my most recent Player name for it to know where to look and then it gave the correct list. Hope this helps...

I only had one profile file, but I had 4 games going. I tried deleting them all but the most recent and rerunning it but had the same result. But you've given me an idea, I going to try deleting it and redownloading it. Thanks for your help!
