The Book of Unbundled Tales, Chapter 85:

A late update still related to the first unbundling wave.

Wizardry 6+7 "lost" some of its German language support. The Wizardry 7 Windows and Mac installers now have only the English menu option (on your library), while for a while they had both English and German. I have no idea whether this is correct or not. Anyhow, no files were changed, merely the language menus were modified.

Grargar: Any news about Dungeon Master?

IAmSinistar: That unfortunately was the one which cul-de-sac'd. I received good info from Doug Bell, and am now connected with him on LinkedIn, but the rights ultimately reside with Wayne Holder, who appears to be reclusive on the matter. GOG had attempted to contact him before as well, to little avail. So I fear that for now this one goes onto my list alongside Siege Of Avalon and Project: Nomads as games I have traced to unresponsive ends.
That's really sad to hear. Did you actually manage to contact Wayne? I mean, did he respond at all?

[Summary: Two installers (1.2 GB) instead of one (1.2 GB). Bonuses didn't change, except they now have "nicer" titles and are duplicated.]

mrkgnao: It's been a "very bad time" for a while now. Probably since August 27, 2014. Possibly earlier.
I got the distinct impression that there will never be a good time.

DukeNukemForever: Mrkgnao, big thanks for your great work.
Heartily seconded. GOG should pay mrkgnao or hand over the whole library or send an invitation to Warsaw with all costs covered...

Also I really need to read Ulysses some time.

And...

That's all for a while, kids, from your favourite unbundling channel.
Yes, you've guessed it, GOG has again blocked my IP.
So, more about GOG's whacky unbundling antics will have to wait for about 12 hours or so.

No response, which is pretty much what I was warned would happen. GOG actually had a dialogue going for a while before it ended abruptly with no further communication.

In other news, looks like my timetable for the Judas Hype Train was off. Ah well, here's hoping it's still inexorably chugging down to line to us.

That's what I feared would happen. While researching I found traces of the devs of some source port trying to get permission from him, and they didn't receive any answer either. They then went the "no No means go" route... Maybe Mr Holder is very reclusive for some reason - some kind of illness involved? He's not the youngest anymore... Guess we'll never know.

A lead could be to contact his ex-wife Nancy Holder (fantasy/horror author, even wrote Buffy tie-in books and the backstory of DM) if she knows something. But that's a rather weak link, I guess, and I don't even know how I would go about such a thing.

That is a potential route indeed, thanks. Though I agree, it's difficult to know how to approach her on the matter.

Btw, the link of the german Wizardry 6 version is wrong and leads to the english version.

Umm wat? Everything looks OK here? Could you give me a screen because I just checked the Windows version and it's got a separate German installer : setup_wizardry6_german_2.2.0.18.exe

Just disable the gog downloader and click on the mac download file, you should get in both cases a file named wizardry_6_2.0.0.12.dmg.

I just received a mail from Devolver Digital regarding "Visceira Cleanup Detail Shadow Warrior". In the actual version you cannot save your progress. On Steam there is a newer release available in which you can save so I contacted Runestorm and Devolver. Devolver told me today that they have sent GOG a new version (don't know if there also was a new version of Shadow Warrior 2013 itself included - Devolver said something about some updates they wanted to do) today so it should be online in a few days. Here is a short part of a former mail and why I think that they might as well have updated the game itself: "the matter is with Flying Wild Hog who is updating the game with several items and we will once again let them know your concern". Do you know more, Judas?

No news yet about the long awaited Blackguards Patch from Daedalic. I will ask if they have news.
