Johny.: This is kind of new, and it uses the same image as gog mixes did.
Bueno.

No bueno.

adaliabooks: [...] as even the packaged games come linked to a cover [...]
Interesting. Got an example handy?


Regarding the to replace or not to replace poll - well, I like some of the official ones better, and I like some of the made ones better (like the covers for The Colonists, Lords of the Fallen GOTY, and Tsioque), and then some of the official covers are practically identical to the made ones.
But I don't really care enough any more, so do whatever others prefer.

Sorry, I meant to come back to this and then completely forgot.

I've had a look, my original claim was largely a guess based on what I'd seen so I've poked about a bit further to confirm.

Pack games where there is only one game in the pack (such as the Witcher 3 and a number of others) should be fine, the library game will now link to a page where I can find the box art automatically.
Unfortunately for actual packs (with two or more games) the behaviour is still the same as the GOGmixes, although each game in the pack will link to the cover it will be the same cover for all the games, so some work may still be required now and again on these covers (though they are rare so it shouldn't be a huge amount of work or effort required).

But based on that info it also means scanning all the ids to link them to covers wouldn't likely work anyway, as some would then become generic across bundles... so I'll probably stick with the made covers we've already got, though if anyone particularly wants an official one for a specific game I can rerun that ID manually so it gets changed.


Edit: But of course, depending on what GOG's new use case for these covers is they may need them for package games going forward and newer packages may have their own individual covers for each game... we'll just have to wait and see.

Shame, but good you caught it before doing the scan - I at least wouldn't like to have the same generic cover for all games in a bundle, and I'm sure MarkoH01 has better things to do than re-upload all the made ones.

Just fixed the missing legacy cover for Ghost 1.0. Could not fix the missing legacy cover for Mini Ghost though (was unable to required the necessary API file). Maybe somebody could help here?

Game ID should be: 1469016746

Edit: Johny confirmed to me that Mini Ghost does not have a boxartimage so a custom made one would be really appreciated.,

I might take a look into it when I get some time (and nobody else beats me to it), but maybe it doesn't have one? Didn't Johny. say that not all games do/will?

Yes, he did and in fact I am pretty sure that this one does not have any. That#s why I need somebody to provide a cover that I can upload.

I put something together really quickly (anyone else is welcome to make a different/better version), and uploaded it using the game ID you posted earlier. Post here if/when it shows up.

And as I told you the first time - no need for thanks.
Since some days ago (don't know exactly how long ago it started), when I have one forum reply in one of the game fora, I'm getting a "2 new replies in: Changelog" notification under the bell.
Only seems to happen in the Changelog threads, the notifications for forum replies in other game fora threads and the General Discussion forum report the correct number of replies.

Anyone else experiencing the same?

I've not really been spending much time here of late so I haven't noticed.

If you can point me to a specific thread you've noticed it in I can have a look and make a post there to see if there's a reason it's doing it, when I get a chance.

So far no, I have not experienced that issue at all (reg. FF 56.0.2). Could it be that you actually did get several replies in the changelog thread?

It first happened in this one (with post #277), then in this one (with post #3), but didn't happen in this one (with post #67).

So not sure what sort of sorcery was (is?) going on. And since these are Changelog threads, I don't think it's worth cluttering them up with unrelated posts in an attempt to track down what seems to have been a fluke of some sorts.

No, I'm very sure I didn't. Note that at the time I got the notification (and checked) for the No Man's Sky Changelog thread, post #277 was the last entry in it, while post #3 is still the last entry in the Detective Gallo Changelog thread. In both cases, I landed on the single reply-post when following the notification.
Also, no posts have been deleted in either thread, so that can't have been it either.

But as I said, it must have been a fluke.

Well i have a problem with the scripts (or better the Firefox Update seems to killed the scripts) i hope
someone can help me (Barefoot and Adalia i have installed).

As said i updated my firefox and now, although all addons like greasemonkey were updated to and nothing
is blocked i don't have the scripts when i go on GoG.
Other scripts on other Websites (like Steamgifts for instance) work just fine as before the Firefox
update.
I checked that the Scripts are activated but still i have no Options Menu, no notifactions , no old Menu Bar etc etc.

Is it because of the Firefox Update?
Do i have to roll back to an older Firefox version?
Or do i have to install/update something else?
As said everything is activated, i don't know why it isn't working anymore.

Thanks for the help!
