What's New With AoE2Tools?
Compatibility Patch is Fully Supported Now By AoE2Tools.
(+) New Feature "Manager" includes Quick Stats, Backup, Restore Backup, Bulk Replays Renamer (requested by Firearrow5235).
- Quick Stats
Get a quick overview of how many recorded games you have and how much space they are taking. You also can clean the the temporary files and old restore games from the same window to improve game performance slightly/significantly.
- Backup
You can make a custom backup of your game files as you can see bellow. (I highly recommend using this feature to backup/restore your hotkeys, savegames especially at the public release of WK 5.7.4 or later. Be warned that Wk Installer removes savegames / hotkeys.)
You can also make a full backup of the entire installation game folder.
- Restore
Simply Browse your backup and restore it back.
- Bulk Replays Renamer
Select any folder containing recorded games (1.5 RC, WK) and they will be all renamed automatically.
(+) Multilingual Support has started with (French, Spanish) languages so far. PM me if you would like to Translate to your language.
(+) Watch Wololokingdoms replays "WK 5.7.2 & WK 5.7.4" supported ahead of the release time (requested by Firearrow5235)
(+) Manually Change Age of Empires 2 Installation folder through Settings button (requested by theandychung).
