king_mosiah: I grabbed the specific libs I was missing from another game I got from GOG, and put them in a folder called 'lib' in the game folder. From there, all I had to do was make a new bash script that contained "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./UNDERTALE" in the game folder. Everything works fine now.
Yeah, that's what probably everyone does with "libssl.so.1.0.0" and "libcrypto.so.1.0.0" for "Game Maker" games. :-)

They should really catch up and stop using outdated dependencies.

It's rare that anyone will keep updating their game though.

Looks like The Witcher 2 finally got the last piece in Mesa, to avoid the black transitions bug.

Hi all !

I’m improving the OS auto-detection system used by ./play.it (used to chose the best default package format).

If you want to help me with that, I would be very interested in the return of the three following commands on different Linux distributions:
grep '^ID=' '/etc/os-release' | cut --delimiter='=' --fields=2
head --lines=1 '/etc/issue' | cut --delimiter=' ' --fields=1 | tr [:upper:] [:lower:]
lsb_release --id --short | tr [:upper:] [:lower:]
Don’t forget to tell me from which distributions you run them ;)

I get "debian" from all 3 commands (Debian testing).

don't use /etc/issue for this. It is specifically meant to be editable by the user/admin to customize the message displayed at the console login prompt.

//edit
i don't think `lsb_release` is part of the default install

Thanks!
I’ve already seen some strange returns with /etc/iusse, now I know why ;)

Hey guys,

Out of curiosity - has any of you been affected by this issue?
https://ctrl.blog/entry/glibc225-unity-black-screen

Btw since I'm here, feel free to ask me Linux + GOG related questions if you have any - I will answer them the best way I can.

Thanks for the headsup, just one question - What's the status on Serious Sam's Bogus Detour? The Linux verion is available only on Steam.

I would like to know when GOG Galaxy will see an actual Linux release.

Strange... I have glibc 2.25 and the 64-bit version of Gone Home runs fine without this fix.

Edit: The 64 bit version of Hatoful Boyfriend works without the fix too.

Thanks for the pointer! It didn't yet arrive in Debian testing, but it's going to soon enough. At least it's good that using jemalloc helps.

Do you know if Galaxy folks are planning to eventually contribute some documentation, to help with community client for Linux? Right now there is a reverse engineered project already, but official input can be still useful.

no, 2.25 is still blocked on Gentoo.
but from reading the linked bugzilla entry I expect we'll see this fixed in the next glibc release.

have you ever looked into using to a better compression method than the default ZIP one( deflate ) ?
The ZIP format would allow to use bzip2 or lzma as well.
though Mojosetup might require some work to support that.

No demand here, I just wanted to thank the whole Linux team for their good work on GOG games ;)

The GOG packaging is especially pleasing when I’ve been fighting with Humble installers for a while, where I see things like 'shadowrun-dragonfall-linux.tar.gz_2.0.9.zip'…
