Somesz: Hi! Yes I have the newest version, I've just downloaded it.

I've turned on the gog downloader mode at "my games", I clicked on the "Game installer" and it opened a new tab on my browser like "Page cannot be display" or something like that. The link was gogdownloader://game_name.

Sorry, I don't know exactly the english Firefox's typical error message
avatar
Fallen_Zen: Have you been previously using the older version 0.9? If so, go to Firefox -> Options -> Options -> Applications and find on the list item named "gogdownloader" and change its setting to default or remove. Restart the downloader. Hope that helps.

If this isn't the case, send me a PM, we'll sort it out.

padibuzius: The Downloader works fine for me as downloads go. It has some issues though with displaying text in settings screens. The labels are drawn oversized and overlap other controls. See the attached image. I confess I tweaked a little the current windows theme, but I don't have these kind of problems with any other apps. Win7 64 here.

There's no urgent need for a fix as far as I'm concerned, the downloader is functional. I only thought the developers would like to know.
avatar
Fallen_Zen: Are you using different theme or font size in Windows?
Yep, larger fonts than default. But I reiterate: no problems with other apps because of my font setting.

Ok, thanks for the info, fixed it. This will be pushed with the upcoming update.

Kalurak: I can't seem to log in with the gog.com downloader. It tells me the email or password is incorrect, however I checked by logging in to the website and that works just fine.
There's a '+' in my email and a '.' in my password, those have caused problems before so maybe it's something to do with that.
The "+" bug has been fixed and this change will be pushed with the upcoming update. Until then you can change your login credentials.

ChristiaanCrause: Hi.

Did a manual download of Witcher 1, now problem is I can't install because the files are corrupt. Any way to add the files to the GOG downloader to fix the files or must the whole game be redownloaded through the GOG downloader?

Yes yes, I will from now on use the GOG downloader. :p
Oh man, nothing to do with your problem, but with your final :-) note you reminded me of Cartman's line in the movie---

Yes, yes, I've seen Terrence & Philip movie, who wants to touch me!?

thanks for fun, +1

mcneil_1: Sorry I have WinXP.
I did a search and cannot find a logger.log file anywhere on my pc.

Fallen_Zen: Try C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\GOG.com (folder may be hidden).
I had a look in the application data folder and no GOG.com folder was there (I had hidden folders viewable)

Seems the app crashes before it's "reaching" the Downloader code, probably a .NET bug. I've sent you a PM with further steps.

I've gotten that error message, too, only in English and it has something to do with the .Net framework GOG must have used to write their program. I'd see the popup randomly at times when I wasn't even using the downloader.

I think (no tech here) if you just click on Continue you shouldn't have a problem. Evidently, that just does manually what the program should do automatically,

Rather than mess around with it, I uninstalled the downloader and installed the beta version. So far, I haven't seen that error message again and the beta is working fine.

I've downloaded the Witcher 2 EE through the downloader (stable version) and if I want to install it it says the installer is corrupt. I thought the downloader would check the chunks it loads against a checksum to ensure that they cant be corrupt.

I deleted the corrupt file and started the downlaoder again and added the witcher 2. After some seconds of "preparing" the download, the downlaoder crashes without any further information.

edit:
If I run the downloader as administrator, the crash doesn't appear but it also isn't doing more than without the administrator rights. Don't know if this info is useful for you.

I tried to upgrade Witcher 2 to the EE version thought the patch system. That ended in an error. Then I removed Witcher 2 and tried to download Witcher 2 EE with an old gog downloader. That didn't work. Then I installed the new downloader and it started downloading. I had to turn off the computer before it was finished. Now it crashes every time I start the Downloader. Same with the beta version. Why is it so difficult to install games from GOG? The old games are fine, but Witcher 2 has not been smooth IMHO. I also had problems with running the patcher earlier and had to redownload the whole game.

This has moved to a new location: C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\GOG.com (Windows 7/Vista) and C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Application Data\GOG.com (Windows XP).

Had any problems after updating?
