It may be that Gog's servers are getting hit hard today because of the release of Baldur's Gate 2. We had the same problem when BG1 dropped.

Today i tried to resume downloading Two Worlds and it gave me a "you don't have access to this game" error. I had a similar problem when the servers were hammered after that PR stunt a while ago and it went away after a few days.

So have patience, we waited a long time for this and i figure we can wait a couple of days till the servers unfuck themselves.

So, I am not the only one that has problems with downloader at the moment

I have the same problem.
No game added to the queue.

Still using Windows7-64.

ladystrange: EDIT: Browser d/l went awry, so used FDM as someone suggested in this thread. Works fine. :) Thanks alot.
Tried using FDM, kept getting a " Access denied. Invalid user name or password". Checked the user name and password, same as my login. Probably something I'm doing obviously wrong but too thick-headed to notice it. What am I doing wrong?

It's working for me right now.

Downloading Icewind Dale 2 & Baldurs Gate 2 at a blazing 50 kb/s right now. Only like 10 hours to go! Wooooooo!

I'm having good success at downloading using Google's Chrome at the moment, even though it's taking 3 hours to download gigabyte sized files.
Amerzone will be the big challenge.
At 5 gigabytes it's highly probable that my laptop will throw a wobbly somewhere along the line before it's completed.

The Downloader I snagged from the link on this page (http://www.gog.com/en/support/website_help/downloads_and_games) says it's version 0.9.30. Is this correct?

That's it, that's the one i'm using at least. As for it being"correct", well, that depends on you opinion.

I STILL can't get the Downloader to work. It keeps telling me wrong login or password, but I'm using the exact same login info as on the main site. What the hell is going on? I can log in to GOG.com but not to the downloader.
Please help, someone! Anyone! My collection is now full of huge Ubisoft titles and I really need the downloader :(

GOG really needs to get the download app 100% operational before Witcher 2 shows up.

I also can't use FDM anymore. The copy-new-link-and-restart doesn't work. It simply closes immediately.

So I've bought Far Cry and Prince of Persia, and I cannot play them because I cannot download them.
I'm having a really hard time recommending GOG to friends if I can't even download the goddamn games I buy!

EDIT: Disregard this. I suck. I had actually forgotten my password. Hell, even the downloader works now!

...I feel so stupid

Nice... my browser download pulling down Farcry at about 6 mb/s. Not too shabby.

So, I've always been ignoring the downloader because I assume it is Windows only, but I just thought to ask; what does it offer that my download manager can't do? It looks like a lot of people depend on it for some reason. Am I missing out on something?
