Changes

- Stats can now contribute more to total score as each is doubled and then the base values are subtracted rather than us simply adding them together
- Food and lockpick stats have been rebalanced

- Milestones are now oriented to reflect the direction of travel they allow
- The distance at which Kim can interact with icons in the level is now based on the size of the object

mvscot: Gah, it's been so long I'd forgotten the whole DVD±R thing!
As a language nerd, I'm still pissed at the semantic confusion between a hyphen and a minus symbol that the name "DVD+R" implies.

mvscot: That's sad news (like how WD? now own HGST).

Interesting. Some as-yet unannounced features coming to a Galaxy near us soon?

Talk about letting the cat out of the bag! :)

JudasIscariot: Probably the Mac version had Mac-specific fixes performed on it. Just because the version numbers differ that doesn't always mean that one is less updated than the other :)

As for the gpg-4, because it's the 4th version of the GOG installer :)
Wouldn't that be the 4th version of GNU Privacy Guard? :)

JudasIscariot: The game version can change between OSes if there are issues specific to a given OS that get fixed.

As for the gog-4, there may have been other updates to game before release or we had to fix some issues with the offline installer.
avatar
muntdefems: I see. Thanks for the insights!

PS: Most of my other versioning-related complaints still stand, though. :P
Tweak MaGOG to get the entire filename instead of the (GOG-<number goes here>) part and 95% of the versioning complaints will be resolved.

I'm not sure I'm following you... What do you mean, that the filenames contain the true "game" version 100% of the time? (while the version descriptors included in the API's "all_files" and "downloadables" fields may be wrong?)

You're wondering why the Mac versions keep jumping up and down in versions, right? It's because we are trying something new when it comes to the Mac PKG installers: we put the in-game version + the date the installer was made.

The (GOG-X) version for Macs, and why it jumps around, is the last two numbers of the date section in the file name.

Oh, right! I wasn't paying attention to filenames, just to the versions. :S

You're right, the gog-x version corresponds to the last figure of the filename (but it does so for Windows and Linux files as well, not only Mac ones), so I suppose that you're playing around with Mac installers more than usual and so many updates entail an increase of several gog-x versions, right?


I don't understand what you say about dates, though: isn't the fourth figure at the end of filenames just an increasing index? What does it have to do with the date?


PS: I'm afraid I cannot modify anything about MaGog, that's mrkgnao's privilege. :P However, I don't think there's anything he can do about it either. As anyone attentive enough can see, my reports for some games do include the filenames, while others don't. As you surely know, that's because one can only get the full info about games that one owns, and only partial info about games one doesn't own. Filenames are part of this "restricted" information. So, unless GOG gifts the whole catalogue to mrkgnao, MaGog won't ever be able to know the exact filenames for many games.

Example:

We updated the Mac version of Necropolis yesterday.

So our Mac techs made an offline PKG with the following filename: necropolis_en_1_1_0_20160908.pkg

So game version number (1_1_0) and the date the build was made (20160908).

Bad example, mrkgnao doesn't own this game so I (nor MaGog) cannot see its filenames. :P

But none of the 1138 games that he does own have any Mac filename with a date as the fourth version figure, so I assume you've only done this to a very small list of games (and pretty recent ones at that), haven't you?

Anyway, this opens up some other questions, like:

- Will you eventually change all Mac filenames to adapt them to this new format?

- Will you only do it for Mac filenames, or for Windows and Linux ones as well?

PS: The limited file info for Necropolis that MaGog can see lists "1.1.0 (gog-08)" as the Mac installer version. According to what you told me earlier, the "08" corresponds to yesterday's day of the month (i.e. the eighth), right? So are you telling me that if this file gets updated on 2 October, its version will jump from "gog-08" to "gog-02"? Is that so?

Eventually, yes. When, I cannot say.

"So are you telling me that if this file gets updated on 2 October, its version will jump from "gog-08" to "gog-02"?"

Yes, that is exactly what will happen.

Really? Who thought this would be a good idea and would not cause any confusion at all? Please reconsider it, and if you want to base the gog-versions on the date the files were created, then add the whole date to the gog-version and not only the month day. :\

The whole date is added to the file name though so I am not really seeing what the problem is at this point?
