I noticed there's been a lot of updates yesterday regarding the new hotfix and DLC on Linux, which is great since it's right on time. However i'm a bit confused, I don't see mentions of the different verzsions anywhere, yesterday morning we had a v 1.2.5b available, then it became 1.2.5c and now the main download for the game is v1.2.5d. What are the differences between these versions?

Well now I see a 1.2.5d changelog, but that version is not available for download anymore on linux, stuck with 1.2.5c. What gives?

You are asking the wrong people.

good for you!
I've downloaded patch 1.2.4 - 1.2.5 and it says "wrong version". And I have latest one installed.
Just bear with em. Also at least one time it was a win-specific patch, no linux/mac version was updated.

Well I am not sure how steam or owlcat can help me get the latest version from GOG... I cant see any download for 1.2.5d as of writing this message.

To quote Yoda: "There is another."

-edit- sorry. needlessly silly. Just open a support ticket if you want GOG to fix or know something. (Likely, however, GOG has lost patience with Owlcat's repetitive patching - again -)

Yeah I did open a ticket yesterday, for what it's worth. Annoyed or not at repetitive patching, it's GOG's job to provide the game for download and I hope they do it in a timely manner.

There's a thread from a few months ago where the current patch disappeared, then came back, then was superceded by a new patch, then disappeared again. GOG made the effort to put it back but said they would not do it any more. So if you need the current version then you download the complete install and hope Owlcat gets their shit together and stops the practice of patching the patches of the patches of the patches that keep breaking things.

I can't say that GOG is at that point with the current SNAFU, so you should wait and hear what they have to say about it.

As a fellow Linux user, thanks for that. I meant to open one as well, but their report tools is such an invasion of privacy I ended up giving up. And you can't not upload one when you create a ticket, even for something where it's obviously 100% irrelevant. What do they need my list of filesystems to fix a missing update?

Well I'm glad I waited a while before playing then! The only problem is that even the full install is not up to date, it's a minor hotfix but I don't want to encounter a bug that is already fixed elsewhere.

Here's the answer I got:

[i]Unfortunately, we've encountered some technical issues with the patch and are currently waiting on another version from the game developers.
For now there is no specific ETA, but I can assure you that we will try to fix this as soon as possible.[/i]

That's why the last time I complained about such a thing, I called it a "download" issue, which doesn't require that privacy-violating system dump. Of course at least the dump is plain text, so you could edit it.

As a side note, given that this is a Unity3D game, I guess you could download the Windows version and just copy everything arch-neutral to get to the same patch level. I won't do that, though, given how much time it takes for a full download. Instead, I'll just avoid the DLC-related stuff for now.

Thanks for the update !
