I have bought my first DLC and lgogdownloader did not display or download it with my usual options. I need to add the --ignore-dlc-count parameter.

Do I understand it correctly that when I have to use this parameter the DLC count on GOGs side is incorrect? If so is there a way to see that DLC counter outside of lgogdownloader so that I maybe could report the error and point Judas to it?

Perhaps those games have their dlcs handled differently in the json output.
Could you post the json output for ToME to pastebin or something similar.

https://www.gog.com/account/gameDetails/1207666523.json

That should be the correct url for ToME unless GOG uses different id numbers for the store page and account page.

Something really unrelated, but - as I was sifting through the JSON output of ToME:

Would it be possible to dump the changelog - if available - to a HTML file, in a similar fashion of dumping available serial keys?

Sorry for the late reply - I had forgotten that you requested this!

Here it is:

http://pastebin.com/U34SsNtt

I didn't see anything out of the ordinary in the json and it was correctly parsed by the downloader.
I'm guessing there's something in the API responses that causes the issue.

API responses for API::getGameDetails from debug build would be helpful

mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
make
./lgogdownloader --ignore-dlc-count --list-details --game '^tales_of_majeyal$' 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3 3>&- | sed -n '/DEBUG INFO (API::getGameDetails)/,/DEBUG INFO/p' > getgamedetails.txt

I don't know if there's a bug at all maybe just some fluke in the setup of hummer?
Because when I do ./lgogdownloader --ignore-dlc-count --list-details --game "tales_of_majeyal" it does list both of the dlc and my backup folder on the nas (where I use lgogdownloader to backup my games) also has several versions of the dlcs in it's folder so I guess it's been working for some time...
(also on version 2.26 and also arch linux 64-bit)

Here's the output:
./lgogdownloader --ignore-dlc-count --list-details --game "tales_of_majeyal"

It's got to be something F'ed on my end. I can't see any DLC at all. I didn't realize I owned as many as I do!

Edit:

Uninstalled lgogdownloader
rm -rf ~/.config/lgogdownloader
rebuilt / installed lgogdownloader

Everything is working now. Thanks Sude & mchack. Happily downloading new versions of DLC.

That indeed would be nice. But I would prefer a simple text file instead of an HTML file.

not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but can't get this to work :( but this do: lgogdownloader --download --game realms_of_arkania_blade_of_destiny

Reason why I mentioned the HTML format is, that GOG already emits the Changelog in HTML format in the JSON file (example: https://www.gog.com/account/gameDetails/1207666523.json).

It would be not much work to implement this, just sticking some HTML tags (<html><head><title>Changelog for game name</title><head><body> .. json data ... </body></html>) around it and call it a day.

Generating a text version of the Changelog would be simple as using lynx for it: lynx -dump changelog.html > changelog.txt

no. i see the same issue ;)
turns out the culprit is --use-cache (or having the option enabled in the config file)
checking the cache file confirms that the DLC is not listed there.

Might it be that the DLC isn't recorded during --update-cache because the game needs --ignore-dlc-count ?
Would --update-cache & --ignore-dlc-count work together?
Or are there any side effects of using --ignore-dlc-count globally?

//edit:
ok, so it works when building the cache with:
--update-cache --ignore-dlc-count

after that I don't even need --ignore-dlc-count when doing
--list-details --game majeyal --use-cache

That's because the downloader doesn't support downloading with group ids at the moment
You'll need to get the file ids from --list-details output and use them instead.

I've thought about setting --ignore-dlc-count automatically when --update-cache is used.
The problem is that --ignore-dlc-count causes lots of requests to GOG in a short time especially if user has lots of games on their account. This can cause GOG to start returning "403 Forbidden" for a while afterwards.

I've now made --update-cache override --ignore-dlc-count with ".*" in 173481a. Let me know if this causes issues and I'll revert it.

It would be best if GOG fixed the DLC count information.

987e053 Add option to save changelogs

You can now save changelogs with --save-changelogs when downloading

The changelogs are saved in HTML format with filename "changelog_gamename.html"
DLC specific changelogs are saved to appropriate subdirectory with "changelog_dlcname.html" filename
Although DLC specific changelogs are supported I don't think GOG uses those. At least all DLCs that I own don't have DLC specific changelog.

It is not a good idea to post URLs with auth tokens into the public, even when the URL leads to an error. I don't know how long these tokens are valid (they are probably expired now), but better edit your post and remove the tokens.

Fast as usual. :) Thanks!
