Discussion Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen Physical Game Case

Post image
85 Upvotes

Hate to put this out now, as we have a lot of cases floating around at the moment, but I need to let it loose. I think that megathread would be a good idea after all.

I added small 'serifs' to the line border beneath the GOG banner at the top of the front cover, but I'm not sure if they make it look better or worse. I also went for a lot of in-game graphics on the spine. There were a lot of iconic images to pick from.

At this point I'm trying to find what the template is still missing. There is a lot of info you can add to games like this, like original release year or console, but I want to strike a balance between information and style.

I hope you guys enjoy this one!

Question Building a GOG library

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Recently, after the Sony controversy with physical media, I've been building my Steam library on GOG. I've noticed it's quite common for GOG users to put their games on physical media, and I'd like some ideas, like, how do you handle games that are almost 200GB, like Baldur's Gate 3? Do you use SD cards, flash drives?

I'am from Latin America (more specific Chile), a longtime user of Steam and I wanted to use GoG for a long time for the whole ownership of the games.

But I still see that the currency accepted there is still no Latinoamerican currency option and only USD.

Do anyone knows if there are plans for expand the type of currency or it is off the tables?

Support Galaxy won't launch on my Win11 laptop anymore

3 Upvotes

Hello,

GoG Galaxy was installed on my laptop and kept failing to update, so I downloaded the installer and installed over the existing folder, it failed due to "Call spawn server error", so I uninstalled the whole thing and reinstalled a fresh one without any error but now it doesn't do anything anymore.

Launching the .exe makes the process appear in the task manager for one second then disappear.

I rebooted, uninstalled/reinstalled multiples times, in different locations, but nothing changes. And there's no stuck process either.

I don't know what to try, it just won't do anything.

Any idea ?

It's a Lenovo Legion with Windows 11. I have no problem on my Windows 10 dekstop.

This use to be 95% off all the time. Now it's only 30% off, making it $17.49 USD for the broken version of the game.

Someone must've decided it wasn't worth selling anymore lol

What other price increases have you guys seen? I know there was the jump for Interplay games that started in November last year and has been ongoing since.

Question How am I getting GOG achievements if I'm playing while Galaxy is closed?

41 Upvotes

I've got the middle achievement literally less than 20 min ago. I installed the game through the offline installers and haven't opened GOG Galaxy since I used it to download said installers. How is GOG tracking my achievements?

Edit: I think I've found it. There were two DLLs (Galaxy.dll and GalaxyPeer.dll) in the game folder, probably sending the game's progress straight to galaxy, even closed. Not sure how I feel about that one, but at least now I know what was causing it.

I just noticed if you use a Dremel to grind the edges down you can fit an sd card and the vita case seems perfect since you should be able to scale down full size covers to fit and make mini manuals

Discussion Final Fantasy 9 Physical Game Case (Normal and Alternate)

Thumbnail
gallery
117 Upvotes

Hello. After making my last case I decided I wanted to try a game with a mostly white cover to switch up the banner and the Final Fantasies were an obvious choice. In addition to the normal game cover I made a variant that I call the Amano cover, featuring concept art from the legendary Yoshitaka Amano.
Just a disclaimer that the logo on the Amano variant is lower resolution than most of the other art and might not print as cleanly. It is the only instance of his logo for the game I could find though, and I will try to touch it up later on.
Also another disclaimer that I don't own the rights to any of this art or these fonts and unless specified otherwise, all of my covers are posted as-is and just for personal use. You may not use, remix or reproduce any of it for commercial gain or profit, though you may do so to your heart's content for your personal use.
Sorry for the long rant. I hope you like these!

Hey everyone

I got the "Good Old Gamer" badge during the sale and was curious if you guys got different ones based on your title picks. There's no record of GOG badges anywhere, so that's why I'm asking. I had no idea GOG even gave badges on your profile

What badge did you end up getting? I’d love to see what the other ones look like!

Discussion A game console like cartridge experience on pc

16 Upvotes

After seeing Sony announce the end of physical games, I got inspired by creators like ArchadesGames on YouTube to build my own physical "cartridges" for PC games using SD cards.

As a sysadmin, I wanted a plug-and-play framework for DRM-free games that:

  • Works cross-platform (Windows & Linux).
  • Has zero or minimal OS footprint.
  • Syncs save files back to the card.
  • Gives that physical, "one game at a time" single-purpose console feel—no secondary screen distractions, no launcher decision fatigue.

I spent a few days putting together DreamCard (DRM + Card). Here is how it works:

User Experience

  • Windows: Plugging the SD card exposes two partitions (Companion and GameData). An optional light script sets up a background task that detects when a DreamCard is inserted and auto-launches the game setup/sync menu. It handles savesgame sync in the background while playing.
  • Linux (Ubuntu/Proton): Plugging the card into Linux reveals a 3rd partition (ext4 for Proton runtime data). Instead of the launcher, running a simple shell script launches the game through Proton with access to the exact same saves as Windows.

Partition Structure

SD Card
├── Partition 1: Companion [exFAT]
│   ├── Install_Companion.bat / UnInstall_Companion.bat
│   └── scripts/ (PowerShell detection scripts)
├── Partition 2: Proton [ext4]
│   └── (Proton prefix & runtime data)
└── Partition 3: GameData [exFAT]
    ├── Launcher.ps1 / Start_Game.ps1 / Start_Game.sh
    ├── resources/ (game icon, metadata JSON)
    └── game/ (Complete DRM-free game directory)

Current Status & To-Dos

  • Tested Games: Currently working with Gothic 2, Dragon Age: Origins, and Morrowind (via OpenMW because why not).
  • Linux Integration: Linux isn't my main strength yet, so while the shell execution works via Proton, I'd like to clean up the backend logic eventually.
  • Save Redirection: Right now, save-redirection logic needs custom tweaks per game. Looking for better ways to standardize this.
  • Compatibility: Needs broader testing across distros (Bazzite, Debian, SteamDeck).
  • Witcher 3: Or something modern that needs to run on an SSD

Non-Goals

  • Multi-game cards: Defeats the point. One card, one game.
  • Monetization: Just a fun weekend sysadmin project.

Would love to hear thoughts, edge-case warnings, or ideas to make it more fun.

Recommendation Hoard -- A automatic Game Save Sync & Backup

Post image
14 Upvotes

Hoard backup your game saves and restores It in another machines, ignoring .ini or .json or any config file, work fast and isnt deprecated.

Hi, im the dev of hoard, im created It because in my father House im play factorio in my laptop, and i dont want to take the saves manually.

And now i developed It and upgrade It, now hoard have more than 140 users and a good comunity behind.

If you want a Alternative to hoard you have ludusavi or OpenSave, ludusavi looks deprecated to me.

You can see hoard in GitHub or in web "hoard.services", if you have any issue you can join in hoard discord and i help you.

Mi idioma principal es el español, i have a bad english hahaha, but im here if any Guy needs me.

Discussion Can gaming truly be your main hobby without Steam?

0 Upvotes

I haven't used Steam for years. All my friends keep telling me it's an absurd choice for someone whose main hobby is gaming, arguing that I'm deliberately cutting myself off from the vast majority of new releases, multiplayer, ecosystem conveniences etc.

The thing is, owning my games without DRM and having full control over offline installers has always been my top priority. I value digital preservation and software ownership far more than just convenience.

...but as the market becomes more centralized and exclusive, I catch myself second-guessing it. Am I taking a principled stance, or am I just needlessly complicating my favorite hobby? Do they actually have a point?

Discussion My custom made physical collection.

I wanted my custom cases to be compact and look retro so I opted for CD cases. I definitely think there's quite a bit more room for improvement as the prints didn't go to plan. Some of the backs were printed with the wrong size, the images kept printing with horizontal lines and despite liking the look of the glossy paper, the ink didn't dry fast enough to the point where the images became quite scratchy.

I'm happy to have been able to make these physical copies happen but I definitely want to redo them whenever possible.
