In Dev My own Alone in the Dark (1992) custom launcher

15 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I've been thinking about burning my GOG games to discs and I've seen videos of people creating launchers using *.bat files to run the offline game installers, and I thought maybe I could do something more visually appealing.

Since I know how to use Clickteam Fusion 2.5, I created this launcher. It's simple, but it lets me add music and runs in the background while the offline installer is running. It just needs to be in the same folder as the "setup_alone_in_the_dark_1.0_cs_(28043).exe" file and it will work. I've also included the development file in case anyone is familiar with Clickteam Fusion and wants to improve or create their own

Discussion Would you be interested in GOG working with studios to recomp console-gated titles as GOG-exclusive PC Ports?

Post image
618 Upvotes

With the hype of avid fans of older titles forever trapped on older consoles beginning to work on their own Decomp/Recomp projects to bring them to PC, I can't help but wonder if GOG wouldn't be interested in bringing these titles to their storefront as GOG-exclusive ports through the same methods?

Matter of fact, they could even *remaster* some of these titles while they're at it, since the need for a complete source code that has factually hindered remasters in the past (SH HD Collection) is basically unnecessary now, since the decomp gets them everything from the game as it presented itself on a physical disc!

I'd personally love it if GOG went beyond the common barrier they encounter of needing a preexisting PC port to rerelease and instead work in-house to make wholly new PC ports to titles that never saw them back in their prime!

Question How do I open my screenshots?

1 Upvotes

I was playing Cyberpunk 2077 and took a couple screenshots and after locating them on my drive where they were stored, they saved as a ".png.tmp" file (but the file itself is a TMP file). Even after closing down the game and exiting Galaxy launcher entirely they are still saved as that file format. I've tried using an online converter, but the free converters I've tried either don't support this format, or can only upload up to 5MB file size and you need to get a subscription to upload larger sizes which I'm not about to do as it probably won't even work anyways. Anyone else have this issue and found a solution to access screenshots saved this way?

Discussion You ever wonder why there is only one game from a specific franchise/series you love, but everything else is not? Does anyone know why?

18 Upvotes

I know there are probably many other game franchises and series that probably have the same issue, but Ninja Gaiden is the one that stood out to me the most. It's even weird given how the one and only game available on there isn't even a mainline entry. It's a spin-off that doesn't even star the main guy, Ryu Hayabusa. My personal theory is that it probably has something to do with studio rights or something.

Because Ninja Gaiden Ragebound was actually made by Game Kitchen, the same people who made Blasphemous, and not Koei Tecmo or Team Ninja, the true owners of the Ninja Gaiden IP who probably just simply gave Game Kitchen the permission to make a game with their IP and characters. But I'm not fully sure if that is the case, because if that was true, then shouldn't Koei Tecmo take their game back and keep it in Steam like they did the others, or perhaps the vice versa and have the Ninja Gaiden trilogy plus NG4 be on GOG too? I know It's probably not as much of a big deal as I am probably making it out to be, but it sure is confusing when you put it into perspective and start to think about it.

Question Will GOG add more payment methods in the future?

12 Upvotes

Hi!

I'd really like to buy games from GOG, but one of the main inconveniences for me is that the available payment options seem to require a Visa or Mastercard.

Is GOG considering adding more payment methods in the future? I'd love to have something like PagoEfectivo, which is very easy to use in my country.

Question Any chance of Metal Gear Solid 2 returning to the GOG store?

42 Upvotes

Has GOG ever commented on it? I missed my chance to buy it despite the fact that it was in my cart back when it was delisted.

It's now been years and seems like it's still not back on the store. I could buy it on Steam, but I'm a GOG user first and foremost, I'd rather own my games DRM free and all that.

So has there been any hint on GOG's side about it, or nothing?

Question Looking for Solutions from anyone who got the Ys GOG port to work

2 Upvotes

I had just bought Ys Chronicles on GOG (I have Windows 11), and I've kept having this same issue in Ys 1 where if I interact with the nurse NPC at the very beginning, it just goes to a black screen that doesnt allow me to see the conversation text, and if I try and Ctrl + Alt + Delete, the screen shows a frozen version of the text that I cant interact with. I've tried the solutions that people have given in the steam release, but they still havent worked for me. I've been hoping that if anyone still has this game on GOG (and on Windows 11) if they know what worked for them.

Support My first experience with GOG?

Literally can't buy the game. I want to buy Swat 4 but this site isn't letting me. Refusing to take my money and put the game in my library. I wish Swat 4 was on Steam, I would be playing the game right now. Thank god we have Steam and Gaben, I can't imagine having to use websites like this, but here we are.

I need help. What could be causing this? I'm not running a VPN or anyhting and I have more than enough money in my credit card. I completed the purchase but the game is still in my cart.

Galaxy Update GOG Laggy/Low HZ

3 Upvotes

Just wondering if I'm the only one experiencing issues with GOG either being laggy or lowering refresh rate? I have a 180hz display and whenever I click on GOG and bring it into focus, my mouse becomes laggy or gets stuck at 60hz. Not sure which one it is... But it's annoying and only started happening after the latest update.

Edit: The sidebar where the store and installed games are listed to the left still runs fine.

I'm new here and have been collecting and currently downloading all my games. I'm wondering about those who put their games on disc.

I've seen a video about how to make an autorun install disc of gog on windows. But I haven't seen any guide for linux. Is their anything like that or you just put the install files without any automatic script?

I posted about two weeks ago about how I made the switch to GOG, while GOG has taken place of my main pc gaming platform thingy, Steam I do use for games that cannot be bought on GOG, but I primarily use GOG now, if a game is GOG and on Steam, I'll buy it on GOG, I think GOG is cool, I also love the goodies that come with games, I love reading through old game manuals, anyhow love GOG, nothing much else to say, I also love the older games, never thought I would ever play Heroes 3 or find older Warhammer games, but I am glad I did

Discussion Lack of Support

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I am posting this to share my experience with GOG, and maybe as a community we can make our voice heard.

The ideology behind the platform is the main reason, I started using this platform. But the lack of support for Linux and not communicating with the customers about that is pretty embarrassing. I am talking about developing a native version for Linux. GOG has announced this several times and they reject to share updates.

I have come across some issues like buying games and the games that I bought are not registered to my account, which is a very simple feature that a platform has to have but okay. I contacted the support about this and they responded to me saying it is fixed, I checked my account today and it hasn't right now I have only one game instead of two. And I can't reach the ticket I opened on the website, so I can't update the ticket, so I responded back to the email. The website for tickets has a very badly designed user interface and missing essential features such as accessing your tickets that are opened before.

Some essential titles are missing, for example Dwarf Fortress, Mewgenics, Ultra Kill, like these are the games that developed by individuals that are very supportive for owning your games. I don't see any reason for GOG to not contact them to bring their games to their platform. There are other games that are drm free on Steam and hasn't reached to GOG yet, which is very absurd.

Anyway, I am sharing this because I really want GOG to succeed at least to some degree, but without the lack of support for these stuff that I mentioned, it doesn't seem like it is going to happen soon. I hope they will be contacting and updating their audience more, and improve their product.

Did the game get any kind of big update on July 16th? Because tripling the price of a nearly 30-year-old game for no reason is laughable. Price history here.

Sad thing is, it's even more expensive on Steam where it's $35 USD for both and more shoddy.
