Midoryu: it either prompts you to install them(for the one's you own)
So - if you install Soul Harvest (for example) - you can play it in reforced version ?

OguzhanAlb: But the game can see the expansions right? like in versus edition which means that would solve many GOG players problems..

Mut0rcs: Yeah, thats what i say. But the new reforced shows only up with english language. So why does the new one have only one language?
avatar
Edward_Carnby: No idea. Perphaps isn't uploaded yet ?
This release is surely a mess.
Yeah exactly. Another launch which works well on Steam and on GOG its just worse than dog shit.

I don't blame GOG on that.
This time - it's just dev's pressing the wrong buttons & uploading wrong builds.

I installed Soul Harvest - it is still not detected by the Reforced version, see attachments.
Additionally, I just noticed my screenshots are all only black now, had to redo them in-game again with Windows, not RivaTuner. So many issues here for the moment...

Edited a minute later: Second screenshot missing, re-added.

ThomNG: Yeah, please give GOG another hour or two. Still working on the build with our dev team, some unfortunate delays were happening but should be solved soon. Like on other platforms, people who own SpellForce 3 will get the SpellForce 3 Reforced Update for free (there will be a SpellForce 3 Legacy (for your old savegames) and a SpellForce 3 Reforced version in all past and future purchases :) ). We have also decreased the base prices for SpellForce 3 (Reforced), SpellForce 3 Soul Harvest and SpellForce 3 Fallen God. Great chance to buy the full franchise now with the sale being active in addition.
Hi, :)

Game is not registering Its own expansions.. again... :) Any suggestions?

Lol, it's Clown Shoes Hours at THQ & GOG again. Guess I can forget about my plan to buy the GOG version.

Edit: Posted about the issue in the Spellforce Discord.

As far as I know, this issue has existed with GOG's Spellforce 3 build and the DLCs ever since release and no one from the player base has ever found a way to fix it. The original game was released on GOG in 2017 and the first DLC was released in 2019. So that's at least 2 years now that this issue has been known and the devs have done NOTHING about it. And judging by your post, they couldn't even be bothered to fix the issue for their fancy new Reforced edition.

Now, I'm not in the habit of telling anyone what to do with their purchases and I won't judge anyone for just keeping the game and quietly accepting that the GOG builds are fundamentally broken when it comes to recognizing the DLC (and according to some posts earlier in this thread, also routinely missing updates and patches). But if I had bought the game on GOG, I'd refund it immediately, as this behaviour is entirely unacceptable.

ThomNG, if you're still reading this thread: We can live with you folks messing up the launch of the Reforced edition, but the fact that this build is still missing fundamental functionality after this many years is a clear sign of your disdain for your paying customers on GOG.

Ok, the game starts just fine. But, under campaigns, it still shows the 2 expansions as not install. Do I need to do something to get them to show up?

It appears to be a long standing bug with no workaround since the original version as far as we know.

Thank you for testing and for clarification.
Guess I won't buy them this time either.
I honestly don't know why this bug is ignored since 2 years and 2 DLC in between.

I could not start the game.. Anyone got the error at the attachment? It says "Incorrect configuration" and "Failed to initialize Steam API. Make sure Steam client is running" GOG sold me a game with a DRM!

Btw there is a German language-voice setting in Reforced. Even if on the storepage it shows there is no German voice. But on the legacy-version where a lot more language-packs so this is still a problem

Erase your Game again through the Galaxy Client and redownload the Game. The Developers and the GoG Team have meanwhile released the right GoG Game Build.

So the final word is the GOG version of the reforced base game doesn't detect the DLCs?

They all have to run through seperate .exe files?
