People with recommended specs like me.
The Wing Commanders and Alpha Centauri have gotten their expansion packs. Time to update this.
Is there any hope for Pro Pinball: Timeshock to get the Windows version added? At current it's the only Pro Pinball running in Dosbox and the only Pro Pinball with stuttering issues, making playing the game well a lot harder. This issue is resolved with the windows version as stated in the subforum, but it's not available through GOG.com

Could you write our Support department about this? Make sure to include links and all that :D

Might & Magic I-VI LE - There are CD versions of Might & Magic 4 and 5 (Worlds of Xeen) with full voice acting for all the NPCs, but the versions on GOG don't contain it.

I am proud to say that this should be fixed now :D

Thanks JudasIscariot. Really appreciate your and GOG's willingness to look into this. I will create the ticket with required information tomorrow. Company X-mas dinner now which is keeping me from trying out my cool new GOG games =).
Finally, I finished a massive update on the list. Again, this list is not meant to be exhaustive. Thank you all and GOG Team for input and fixes.

As I said before, this is so incredibly awesome! Thank you again you thievin' bastard!

Now, obviously I'm very very grateful for what you've done for this package of Might and Magic, but if you'd like to make the M&M games even more complete (and this is clearly the right thread to post this in!), well, Might and Magic 8 is still missing a map.

I contacted GOG support about this ages ago and was told they could not find the map. However, I then provided links to two unique scans of it online to prove its existence, along with a link to a copy of MM8 on eBay that had the map pictured and included in the original box. Thus, I was tinged with a bit of disappointment when the recent wonderful M&M updates came and, lo and behold, there was still no map.

All the other M&M games have their maps, and it's the last significant item missing from the series. For you, thief, this is the lowest low-hanging fruit around.

(Edited to correct details of original correspondence with GOG support.)

Just for the record, my part in the whole update was actually quite small :D The real BIG thank yous should really go to our team who tested, packaged, got the whole shebang approved as well as Ubisoft for giving us their permission to update the installer :D.

All I did was "Hey, wouldn't it be awesome if we added the talkie versions of M&M 4 and 5? I bet people would flip out! :D".

Good work to GOG and Ubisoft for this, GOG has to have the best possible versions of games.

gamebin: Sim City 2000 SE - Missing Windows version and no enhanced network play and interface from the Gold Edition.
I've got the CD if the Windows installer is needed. Network could be difficult. Tried it on XP with my copy and couldn't get it to work
Might as well post a problem I'm having with Silent Storm Gold here too (particularly, Sentinels), although I've made two separate threads about this, but received no real help.

I'm on the mission "Treachery", and there's a cutscene mid-mission, that freezes the game if I press ESC. If I don't, the cutscene never ends and the characters just stand there. Apparently this bug was fixed in an official patch for the retail version, but the patch didn't work with the version GOG is selling. Maybe they're distributing the unpatched version of the game? In its current state, I can't continue on with the game.

Information about the 1.1 UK patch: http://www.gamezone.com/news/silent_storm_sentinels_patch_release
And this part in particular: " Fixed game crash during the cut-scene on the Treachery mission zone"

I'm not sure if GOG team can use it.

Can you please add:

Might and Magic 8 - Missing map.

I've made a deal with our resident thief to try and get this corrected, but it could be a long time before I or anyone else can get a scanned copy that's good enough to include.

gamebin: Heroes of Might and Magic II - CD audio rips are bad.
Just happened to click on this, gave an 404. Just a heads up in case one was needed.
