Can't install Demo ManiaPlanet

Post by inspecterolopezo »

Hello!
yesterday, I tried to install the Demo proposed by Maniaplanet. So, the launcher is installed but mais I tried to launch the game, there is a message :" You don't have write permission on your personal data folder (C:\Users\stick\Documents\ManiaPlanet\).
Press OK to select/create anoter one.
Press Cancel to fix the problem yourself.

And all what I have done, that didn't work.

Can you help me to fix this please
thank's
regards.

There isnt a demo anymore, so i think its indeed a bit confusing that it is still called a demo!
What we have now is that you can try out the game for free on channels.
Here more info https://www.maniaplanet.com/channels

You should start up your game as administrator, that should do the trick!
Right click on the launcher and start it as administrator, good luck!

I already tried with your link

But, as I said, I have to "Download Demo " (displayed on top right of the screen)

And, when I download, I'm in the same position that I explained before

I already tried to start up my game as administrator but It's didn't work.

I want to try this game before to buy it.
Thank's to answer me :)

Okay, its the same link but maybe something went wrong installing.
First clear your previous install.
Then use this link http://files.v04.maniaplanet.com/setups ... _Setup.exe
Install as adminstatrator and it should go to
C:\Users\yourname\documents\Maniaplanet

Then Maniaplanet should be installed, good luck!

You can upload pictures on https://imgur.com/ and show them here, as long as the pictures are not bigger then 800x800.
The post the link you get here.
I still dont get it why it shouldnt work cause the programm works as any other program.
You install it, you get a message from windows if you agree on installing and there you go.
Then you create a username and a pass and so on and so on.
Well, hopefully your pictures show something we overlook, hopefully :D

Haagse, there's been an added minimum post count requirement for links to avoid spambots, so that's why they can't put any links here.

What you can do though, is to just put some spaces before the dots so that your link doesn't turn into an actual link.
