Very interesting, good to see some evidence of that coming along. Hopefully that is the "big thing" they speak of. I think it will be another great way for people who are friends or friendly on GOG to connect more directly, organize multiplayer games and other interactions and generally build an even closer community. For people interested in such features/interaction anyway. I don't use all of the social features on Steam, but I do use some of it and I find it quite handy at times and wished GOG had similar for ages. Knew they were working on it from their announcement but it's been a year since then so nice to know they're getting closer now. :)

(i hereby offer my formal apology for hijacking that thread)

Lol, it's fine... don't worry about. ;)

My games all reappeared, but my shelf is now in disarray :/

The Book of Unbundled Tales, Chapter 1:

NOTE! ADDED FILE Alien Breed + Tower Assault, downloadables, Alien Breed: Windows installer, English (setup_alien_breed_2.1.0.33.exe; Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:10:29 GMT; 24,143,576)

NOTE! ADDED FILE Alien Breed + Tower Assault, downloadables, Tower Assault: Windows installer, English (setup_alien_breed_tower_assault_2.1.0.35.exe; Wed, 25 Feb 2015 16:11:32 GMT; 132,841,424)

NOTE! REMOVED FILE Alien Breed + Tower Assault, downloadables, Windows installer, English (setup_alien_breed_pack_2.0.0.32.exe; Mon, 24 Jun 2013 15:37:24 GMT; 140,097,384)

How it's possible the file size is almost the same as previously one separate language installer & contains all of them ..... something is either wrong or i missed something there.......

I'm not sure because I never downloaded the foreign language installers, but perhaps all the monolingual installers were actually multilingual ones preset to a specific language.

If that last number is the size, then the combined installer is actually smaller. The only way I could see that being possible without it being wrong is if the localizations are all purely text and, in the repacking process, they improved the compression slightly.

'i'm asking because that's really strange ;

i still have older installers :

english one : setup_dracula_4_2.0.0.3.exe & french one : setup_dracula4_french_2.1.0.4.exe

(those removed)

never bothered to download others languages.

and the gamecard mentions : Languages: Audio and text: English, français. Text only: Deutsch, español, italiano

The only possiblity all languages are now in the same installer, BUT that's not clear at all , because they re-use the same gog build number as the french one.

Plus the file size with all combined languages is smaller or almost the same size for just one language installer....

There's an oddity for both games : Dracula 4 had seperate installers but not Dracula 5...... that's quite weird.

and those games were unbundled for quite some time now (that's not new)

IF it was the case , what a waste of disk space....... i really hope there are not a lot games in this case....saving my collection is a real pain with my download speed :(

PS : the shelf report 253 MB ..... for dracula 4 installer

Got an update flag for "Long Live the Queen"
Edit: Changelog

Still waiting for that missing Settlers 2 opening movie (German version)...

From MaGog's logs for 11 March:

NOTE! CHANGED Battle Worlds: Kronos, compatibility: ***TO*** Multiplayer notice: In order to access the multiplayer portion of the game, you must first enter your unique CD-key and set up an account with King Art Games via the in-game interface. Your CD-key is located on your game shelf.





NOTE! CHANGED Long Live the Queen, file_size: 54 MB ***TO*** 67 MB

The aforementioned split Dracula 4+5 games do not have covers on my shelf. And I just noticed that the 4 Cognition episodes now all have the same cover. Am I crazy or didn't they have different ones before?

Cognition did have four different covers so you're not hallucinating ;-)

EDIT: And episode 3 contains the words episode 4 on the generic cover. Glad I grabbed the original artwork assets for my personal database.
