ssokolow: That reminds me. I really have to get around to writing the requisite test suites so I can feel confident in publishing my pack of guidelines and tools for building good .tar.gz release bundles.

(In case you're curious, I've attached a screenshot from the draft for the "Are save, configuration, and cache files stored in the right place?" section of the guidelines.)

The parts I seem to grasp look good to me.

Two days ago I struggled with installing mods in GoG's Linux build of Don't Starve, because there is a ".klei"-folder in /home/username/, but it's only for savestates and mod configurations.
In the end I've found the game and mod folder in
" /root/opt/GOG Games/Dont Starve/game/dontstarve64/mods/ "
ó.Ò Serves me right for using the installer.

Edit: Enough derailed, sorry guys.

Has the GOG Launcher been removed from the 3 games that used it yet? I'm specifically interested in a WAG free of that.

@Judas - if not yet, will this change get flagged when it does happen?

OK. So what's up with the new GOG version numbering? 1.5 (gog-10)? 1.1.2 (gog-01)?

Quote from the latest invitation email:

The Witcher Adventure Game, Double Dragon Trilogy, Alien vs. Predator Classic 2000, and Rise of the Triad (2013) now use GOG Galaxy to deliver their multiplayer functionality.

Today we retire the temporary GOG Launcher app that originally came with your game. You're free to uninstall the app and your game will continue to work without it. Now that it is powered by GOG Galaxy, you can take advantage of automatic updates, online multiplayer with matchmaking, and access your entire GOG.com library of games.

So yes, it has been removed :)

I suppose it really is just that that statement above says you can uninstall the launcher that came with those games, it doesn't actually state that the launcher has been removed from the installers for those games. It is just a clarification that is needed. If those games are downloaded now and installed via their installer executable, does the retired launcher get installed with it (for you to then remove) or has the launcher been removed from those installers?
