haydenaurion: normally we get a notification of installers changing from 1.x to 2.x.
That is not strictly true, I believe. As one who monitors the installers on a regualr basis and publishes a list of changes on a monthly basis for more than a year now, I would say that at least 90% of those go without notification.

Well, the point is that the notifications need to be more consistent.

as i already said , i seriously doubt they will fix the notification system when a game get a v2 installer :(

and as pointed out , the only time a game is notified when it's getting a v2 installer , it's either because it get a new bonus and or a new language pack / language installer coming with the new installer. Rest of the time is not notified.

The-Business: Deponia got an update.
It's the Mac installer, apparently? I didn't notice changes to other files.

Mac Installers. Both the english and the german one got updated. No idea what changed, Judas should have added a thread in Deponia's forum.

Since I just saw you at 999 rep, I'll randomly give you a +1. Just because.

adambiser: Do the new installers still have the uninstall problem?

P1na: Which uninstall problem? I tried uninstalling Settlers III yesterday and I got an error, now I'm curious...
There is/was an uninstall issue where the 2.0 installers would wipe out compatibility settings.

It has been mentioned a few times over the months, but I don't recall seeing that it was fixed...

Is it just me, or is GOG being rather slow with updates for Eador MotBW?

Yeah that's what I meant, the autoupdater is really slow, like excruciatingly slow, it took me a few seconds to download the patch itself, and then like an HOUR (literally) for it to install. No idea what the deal is with that

Also, I like to keep updated installers/patches on my computer, in hard form
