I'm tired downloading files over and over again. I had to download W3 2 times so it was able to be installed properly. A few weeks ago I finished downloading W2... for the third time (!).

AND IT'S STILL BROKEN.

Galaxy simply didn't download setup_the_witcher2_ee_3.4.0.25-4.bin file. I'm running a limited to 10gb/month connection now and I cannot download the entire game again (and I'm not willing to). I just need this one file that I can afford to download. Is there ANY source of this file except illegal ones? I can't choose a part to download in galaxy.

Could you be more specific what you are talking about? Is it the GOG Downloader or is it Galaxy? Those are not the same thing.

Here. From your account you should be able to get http downloads instead of GOG Downloader links.

I meant Galaxy. I didn't realise gog downloader is still out there after galaxy was shown to the world.

@JMich
Thank you. Downloading it right now.

It is, just unsupported. So any site update along the way might break it for good, but for the time being it's still functional.

Remember you can always download individual installer files by clicking on "Account" on the GOG homepage and clicking on the game in your library. This gives you access to the download links for each individual installer file. Clicking on "More" let's you select GOG Downloader links.

So your downloading the standalone installers via Galaxy? Not the the game directly unpacked, I assume to save bandwidth. You should report this on http://mantis.gog.com so it can be looked at. Errors related to the standalone installers probably get missed a lot more as most people probably just install via Galaxy not the installer itself.

I tried Galaxy once and it was a pain. I'm not really into playing games online with other people so I stick to the old downloader.
