The wrappers for Deus Ex and Deus Ex: Revision have been updated for the new installers.
Since I got it for free I tried to get RiME working & make a wrapper for that, but so far I've been unable to get it running acceptably. Sound & music playback is crackly & stuttery, volume control does not work and trees/certain objects don't render properly, flickering a lot. Framerates are a bit variable too & could be a bit better (although it's mostly adequate so far). At least I now have a wrapper more or less ready for when it does start working well enough though :)

Hi, I finally got around to implementing support for GOG Galaxy files in upstream innoextract. There is a release candidate available for testing. Let me know if you have any problems with the windows binaries there. There is a release candidate available for texting. Please let me know if there are any problems for you with this implementation, I only have access to a small number of affected installers.

hi, thanks for working on this. It seems to work fine from the few setups I tested so far. Architecture and OS constraints are ignored (language constraints are supported and there is a warning for non-default architecture and OS constraints) - are these used anywhere?
haven't seen the 32/64 bit selection being used so far
( the reason I had used a different option to handle the language selection is that the list of languages from the normal Inno Setup does not match the list of languages from the GOG Galaxy data. Not sure though how much impact that actually has in practice )
edit:
seems there is a newline missing after the last status message ("Done with xx warnings").

Right, but the Inno Setup language names differ between versions anyway and can also be customized. I do think there is value in providing a common way to control these filters between normal and GOG installers. For the other two constraints it will be more difficult. Inno Setup doesn't have per-file architecture restrictions and the Windows version restrictions work with version ranges instead of distinct names. Not sure yet how to best unify that.

Nice, thanks to everyone involved ;) I have a couple of these installers handy, I’ll make sure to report any issue on GitHub.

vidsgame: Adamhm, hello again and I do apologize in advance for being a problem child but I ran your Total Overdose script and this is what happened:
<snip>
The p11-kit messages can be ignored. <snip>
vidsgame: Note that I ran the version that I just freshly downloaded: setup_total_overdose_1.00_(18925).
The version in the Readme is: setup_total_overdose_2.0.0.2.exe.
Looks like I forgot to update the readme when the installer was changed... that'll be fixed in the next update. The version in the Readme is: setup_total_overdose_2.0.0.2.exe.
What are your system's specs and distro? Make sure that your graphics drivers are up to date, and that you have installed all of Wine's dependencies (installing the system's Wine package is the easiest way to do this)

You could try installing the ia32-libs package in case anything is missing. Also it might be worth upgrading to kernel 4.15.
Did you add a PPA for a newer version of Mesa? If you didn't then you're likely still using whatever ancient version is provided by Ubuntu 16.04's repositories. Unfortunately it looks like the Padoka Stable Mesa PPA has stopped supporting Ubuntu 16.04 so that's no longer an option :/ You could try Oibaf's PPA instead but that provides cutting-edge releases & runs the risk of introducing stability issues (although it's updated very frequently)

Hmm. I'm always wary of kernel updates. Last time there was one, my Wifi card was crippled and I had to open the laptop up and put in a new card because apparently, the specific card I had was a Realtek Realmess. At least in regards to Mint, it dropped Wifi more often as the Kernel versions went up, so it seemed like no one liked that card enough to ever address the issue.

I will update it in case it's absolutely necessary as I could always go back to the one that's working now.
Alright, first of all, how do I go about installing that ia32 package?
Second of all, what is Mesa and because I have no idea what Mesa is, I of course have no idea what version I'm using and naturally whether it is even installed on my system. It could very well be the ancient variety.
I'm still fairly new to Linux, by the way.

(or you can open Synaptic Package Manager and search for & install it from there)
Mesa is a component of the open source graphics drivers. There have been a lot of improvements to it recently, so it's very important to have an up to date version.
If you haven't already you might want to check out the beginner's guide I wrote: https://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_try_linux_repostrewrite
Mint 19 should be out soon & I'll be updating the guide for it some time after.

I know my way around Linux like a Windows user knows his way around Windows but as soon as you tell me to crack open a command prompt or terminal as it's called in Linux and Mac world, I'm lost. Unless, it's something simple.
Anyway, I'll try installing that package and re-installing the game using your script and report back.

Tried the game and it still gave me the same error.
Then I updated my Kernel and I'm extremely thankful everything still works perfectly but alas the game still gives me the same error.
I am interested in Mesa but I'm still very new to repositories as it is advised to add them through the terminal. Like in the case of Wine, I basically copy and pasted everything in the terminal until stuff started working because the Wine version in the Software Manager is out of date.
