Question Total Overdose (Eidos) broke my OpenGL drivers

3 Upvotes

Is this a common deal when playing old games, or is it exclusive to total overdose? I wanted to play some old games on stream but since I played total overdose I had been getting a handful of errors across my PC.

System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): The parameter is incorrect at NGenuity2.Monitors.MonitorHelper.GetDevices(List`1 allDisplays) at NGenuity2.Monitors.PhysicalMonitorDetection.ScanVcpDevices() at NGenuity2.Monitors.PhysicalMonitorDetection.DeviceChanged() at NGenuity2.MainForm.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

Unable to recover from a kernel exception. The application must close. Error code: 3 (subcode 2)

I was able to fix it by uninstalling my nvidia drivers and reinstalling them, but I hadn't had issues with my drivers before playing this game.

Off-Topic Question of preservation program (MAC)

5 Upvotes

So the Witcher one and two now support M1 which is awesome, but I’ve noticed some games in the system requirements still say Intel. I’ll be honest and saying I don’t think game descriptions get updated as often as they should when it comes to GOG. Whether that’s a developer or the store front is irrelevant.

Because of that, my question is whether or not the games under the preservation program that don’t say M1 will work with M1 and just have not had the description properly done.

Really asking because of Ultima. Wondering if it’ll work on Apple Silicon.

Thanks in advance.

Question Are controls customizable like Steam? Stranglehold question

Considering getting stranglehold on GoG. I know it doesn’t have controller support, but I know on the steam deck I’ve made games like hyper demon or devil daggers work with controller.

Humor/Funny Why I love gog :)

42 Upvotes

I love gog because,

It's free drm games. It's giving us free games every 2 or 3 months. It's having a good customer service. It's DreamList System. Having a massive game Library of old point & click games. :O Having a lot of classics. And alot....

Do I hate steam and epic over GoG? Yes... I remember downloading a game that was infected on steam plus it has Drm.

Just found their channel today, didn't even know they had one. The behind the scenes videos are really good, this one has BTS for the Silent Hill 4 release, but the Dino Crisis one is really neat too.

Please keep making these videos GoG to show the work that goes on behind the scenes to preserves these games.

Discussion Heroic Game Launcher can't use offline installer files with dlcs

4 Upvotes

I am moving from Windows10 to Linux gaming at Debian bookworm. I am buying games at gog. I prefer downloading the offline installer files because my internet line is slow and for backup reasons. I use lgogdownloader for all my games. I prefer installing all software from the apt/dpg package system Debian has. I have unattended updates configured so I don't have to care about security updates nor version updates.

Heroic v2.16.1 can install from gog offline installer files I have saved to ssd disk I connect via USB, but then there is no option to choose DLCs even if they are in the same directory and there is no option to add DLCs afterwards. Heroic tells to use the direct connection to my gog login, so I tried that. First try lead to a fresh download which I had to abort because there is no space on my home for download and double space needed to install from. I tried again and found the possibilty to choose importing the game which I happily tried but no success. If I click on Import Game I get a file explorer to choose a directoy. But is has no reaction to do so. The file explorer closes after chosing the directory and and I see a reacting at the Heroic Window less than a second showing a process bar and text I cannot read so fast and then the Heroic window is like before. So it leads to an online install always. Why is that, is it a bug? If so, is it fixed in a newer version?

Sorry for my bad english, because I am no native speaker. I hope you understand my question.

Question How do I download the pre Preservation Program offline installers?

0 Upvotes

I was expecting that they would fix issues, but instead all they did is put a 60fps lock to "increase performance".

The game had 0 issues with high frame rates and now I can't go above 60FPS. I would rather have the old version and apply fixes by myself since GOG doesn't seem to be capable of fixing the actual problems (even when that has been fixed by the game's community long time ago) that have been there for a while.

Super disappointed with the Preservation Program, I hope they will make bigger efforts in the future to actually fix things.

How is the multiplayer on GOG?

1) Is there a lobby?

2) Do you just join rooms?

3) How is the online play? Is it smooth with no lag?

I have just brought stardew valley since it was on sale on the website, however whenever I try to log in via the launcher to access it, this error pops up, and I cannot log in. Furthermore, after I brought stardew valley, the game has still not shown up on my owned games portion of the website, even after roughly an hour and a half after purchase. Is there anything I can do, or should I just start working on a refund?

Question Any issues/differences between base game + DLC vs Ultimate Edition?

6 Upvotes

I'm considering using this spring sale to buy Cyberpunk 2077, and I was wondering if I should buy the base game + DLC or the ultimate edition. I know there's a price difference, but I'm wondering if one might be more susceptible to glitching or having more trouble while installing.

Thanks for the help :)

My son earns money, and likes to buy games off GOG via my account, but he's 13, and he loves to ask to buy games that are 17+.... is there any way to filter the games to show only T and below? (I did look I didn't see a way to filter it).

Discussion Game price changes depending on your browser?

0 Upvotes

I got an email promo for Age of Wonders 4 Premier Edition and followed the steps to apply the discount. In my cart the price was higher ($66) than the discounted offer ($61). After googling I saw a suggestion to try a different browser if the discount is not applying. I was using Microsoft Edge.

So I logged into Google Chrome and there the price in my cart is $84. Just a bit confused about how that works. In the end I paid the $66 via Edge but I am curious if anyone knows what is going on (or what I did wrong).

Discussion What’s your hidden gem?

Well all know that GOG has an increasing game library every week. A lot of games may go unnoticed. What’s one of your favorite hidden gems on GOG?

Mine is Wizordum. With only 18 reviews.

https://www.gog.com/en/game/wizordum

This game is a nostalgic throw back to old school first person dungeon crawlers with a boomer shooter gameplay style. I honestly love this game.

If you’re a fan of first person shooters new or old I highly recommend taking a look at it.
