I got tired of waiting for THQ to fix the GOG version so I took the matter in my own hands. Here is what you need to do in order to play all expansions (Fallen God and Soul Harvest) from the base game (Spellforce 3 Reforced):
1. Install all three games. My install path is "E:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\SpellForce 3 - Reforced\" but yours could be slightly different.
2. Copy first expansion "SpellForce 3 - Soul Harvest\bin_addons_win32\EXP1_Campaign" folder into the base game ("SpellForce 3 - Reforced\bin_addons_win32\EXP1_Campaign"). Then do the same for DLC_Bavaria folder. You can also copy EXP1_KOR if you want Korean language.
3. Copy second expansion "SpellForce 3 - Fallen God\bin_addons_win32\EXP2_Campaign" folder into the base game ("SpellForce 3 - Reforced\bin_addons_win32\EXP2_Campaign"). You can also copy EXP2_KOR if you want Korean language.
4. After this your "E:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\SpellForce 3 - Reforced\bin_addons_win32" folder should contain these subfolders: DLC_Bavaria, DLC_DDE, EXP1_Campaign, EXP2_Campaign, SF3_Campaign, SF3_KOR (and optionally EXP1_KOR and EXP2_KOR).
5. Rename file "E:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\SpellForce 3 - Reforced\wrapper\thqnocfg.dat" into "thqnocfg.dat.bak" (this is for backup, we will override this file in the next step). If something goes wrong then delete the patched file and rename this one back to thqnocfg.dat.
6. Download patched thqnocfg.dat file and save it in base game's "E:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\Games\SpellForce 3 - Reforced\wrapper\" folder.
7. Done! You can now start the base game and enjoy full functionality with both expansions working properly.
