Post by rioforce Mon 04 Apr 2011, 5:12 pm

Today, I was going to build in Lego Digital Designer, when it wanted to update. I updated it, and found out that it had Lego Universe mode in it. But this LU mode wasn't secret. Lego has made LU mode PUBLIC! Very Happy I went file diving, and I found a picture that said LEGO DIGITAL DESIGNER EXTENDED. Then, I opened this file at this directory: C:\Program Files\LEGO Company\LEGO Digital Designer\prefrences.ini. In that .ini file, I added this line: ThemeAccess=LDDExtended There is a new secret mode in LDD 4.1.6! Here are some pictures of it:

1. FOUND! LDD Extended! 01_pic10

2. FOUND! LDD Extended! 02_bri10

3. FOUND! LDD Extended! 03_min10

4. FOUND! LDD Extended! 04_ver10

See! That is cool! You need to download LDD 4.1.6!

Ah! I just found that it has the minifigures ( Robot hat, Clown hair etc.) pieces. They were in the first LU Mode and then got removed. Nice!

EDIT: Anubis Head... W00T!

For some reason it doesn't work for me, can somebody post here what the preferences.ini contains.

I only have one line in it which is ThemeAccess=LDDextended

Well, first go to the top of a folder and click Organize -> Folder and Search Options -> View -> Check "Show Hidden Folders, Files and Drives"

Now you are going to go to: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\LEGO Company\LEGO Digital Designer

In that folder is preferences.ini Add ThemeAccess=LDD Extended somewhere in there.

@Everyone! If you want to use LDD Extended mode, you have to run LDD first! That means, right after you install it, run the program. When it is fully loaded, close LDD and go to the Program Files and add the line of code to THAT preferences.ini file to start LDD Extended mode. Load LDD back up, and you should be able to ue LDD Extended mode!

@sim533 Do what I said above and LDD Extended mode should work for you. But the preferences.ini file contains one line to begin with: "language=en" Then you add the line to start LDD Extended after the steps above.

Are you sure you entered everything correctly? Remember there are two preferences files. one in Program Files and the other in App Data. Make sure you went to the one in App Data.

Woah! Woah! Woah! Hold on a minute there, CapnSkye! You have got that wrong! You DO NOT got to App data! You go to the Program Files! The app data file just tells it how to draw the interface! You add the line to the file in the Program Files!

@sim533 Go to this directory:

C:\Program Files\LEGO Company\LEGO Digital Designer

Add that line to THAT .ini file and start LDD. It should work this time. Plus, delete anything that you added to .ini files in App data. Added anything to that may mess up LDD!

Guys, I just got it working! I modified the file in the app data and then it worked! Many thanks!

Cool, works great for me!

And for the App Data or Program File, I think both actually works. It does the same thing at the end.
