Hey assemblerhead,


Looking at the log it seems that the game is failing to call the Galaxy API, could you attempt to disable your firewall?

Found the problem.


GOG Galaxy is assuming that the person playing the game is connected to the Internet and logged into their GOG account. If not --> the response to the game is gibberish.


The Fix :

# 1 : Uninstall GOG Galaxy

OR

Stop && Disable both GOG Galaxy services under Administrator Tools -> Services.


# 2 : Delete ALL Galaxy related .DLL files in the game install directory. ( 3 files )


Note to Admin : Please mark this problem as solved.

I play OFFLINE. No Networking Connection AT ALL. ( Single Player / Standalone )


I will try with it the firewall *disabled* later today and report back.

Same problem, no change.


Disabled the firewall for all tests. Did three tests.

Test # 1 : Ran it with Galaxy running in the background.

Test # 2 : Ran it with Galaxy shut down.

Test # 3 : Ran it with Galaxy shutdown and ALL Galaxy DLL files in the WFTO install directory deleted.


Also included the launcher output log.

  • Cannot Replicate

Hey assemblerhead,


Everything we have seen so far has been a failure inside of the GOG API, could you please take all of the evidence that you have given us and put it in a ticket to GOG support. 


You can contact them at: https://support.gog.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?category=info


Unfortunately we cannot follow this issue up any further on our end and are personally unable to replicate this situation. GOG support will be able to troubleshoot the Galaxy client for why it cannot find you achievement(This is how we track campaign progress)

There is a workaround in the above comment.


I would still suggest opening a ticket so they can rectify this.

Already done.


Also posted the fix in the WFTO forum at GOG.


Ran into this problem before with GOG, different game, different symptoms.

Had a Loooooooong "discussion" with GOG support over this. It went nowhere.
