Troubleshooting no gog achievements?
Hi, I installed 2.15.1, made sure Comet was enabled in adv cfg, logged in to Gog, installed a few games (e.g. FTL) and don't see saves or achievements. This is on ubuntu. I see "Launching comet!" in the logs when running FTL and "Killing comet!" when quitting it in the Heroic log, and I see "Loading achievements..." in the GOG and FTL logs. I know it's experimental, but is there anything I should do or try?

Wine?

share the GOG log after you launch the game
foreign-sapphireOP•10mo ago
Log attached. I guess it's using wine? It's not really clear to me from the ui
equal-aqua•10mo ago
you are using Linux native version of the game
that means it may not support GOG Galaxy functionality
that seems to be the case for this game

question unrelated to this specific issue (but still kinda related):
how do i know that i've aquired an achievement? are there any sound or visual cues? or is it displayed in the log?
equal-aqua•10mo ago
it's in log and on gog's website
there is no overlay support yet, so that's the only clue
:/
sensitive-blue•10mo ago
are there any plans to add the galaxy overlay or an alternative?
equal-aqua•10mo ago
we didn't settle, we'll try to get galaxy overlay working
at least on Windows and Mac
on Linux it will be harder
sensitive-blue•10mo ago
i see. thank you!
i feel like something is needed to notify the player that an achievement has been aquired, if only for the peace of mind to know that comet is working properly. playing a sound would be enough.

true

Hello, I have a question regarding gog achievements. From what I understand, we don't have to manually setup comet anymore on our devices anymore ( steam deck in my case ), but just make sure comet integration is turned on in Heroic settings.
My question is, is there any way, in logs for example, to find out that this is actually working? Like a string in debug logs that says "connected to gog" or whatever.
I just don't want to achieve something in a game onlly to find out that I was missing some config leading to the achievement not being logged.

in Heroic settings > Logs > GOG
you can check if it says
Client identified as ambitious-aqua•5mo ago
Awesome thanks. One more question. do I need a config file in
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/comet/config.toml to make the overlay work, or as far as I can understand, overlay just don't work at all for the moment on linux?equal-aqua•5mo ago
overlay will come in the future
the config.toml is an upcoming thing
we also plan to have Decky loader plugin to display achievements from comet
ambitious-aqua•5mo ago
Holy sh**, it's you, the dev of comet. Awesome work. Well, I have macbooks and a steam deck and if any way I can help test, would love to.
Does these logs appear after starting a gog game or right at the beginning of the log file? at the moment I don't see any such string, however, I just deleted the log file from disk to relog everything.
equal-aqua•5mo ago
not the beginning, but if it connected it should be there somewhere
I recommend to use text editor to search for that text
ambitious-aqua•5mo ago
Yes I do open the log file location in a terminal and grep over it. let's try it again. I am using the game Dredge for testing this, as I know for sure that gog achievements work via comet for this game.
I didn't get
Client identified as string however, I did get the following comet logs:
This should mean that achievements should work. Thanks again.equal-aqua•5mo ago
yep, it works
ambitious-aqua•5mo ago
Ah classic, my grep was "Client Identified as" with a capital I for Identified. 🤦♂️
equal-aqua•5mo ago
grep -i for the win :rollsafe:variable-lime•5mo ago
always grep -i

Do you need a specific Wine/Proton version for it to work? Does it matter at all if I choose Ge-Proton or GE-Wine?
equal-aqua•4mo ago
comet?
it works for every proton/wine version
comet itself is a native app
deep-jade•4mo ago
Yeah wel I wasn't getting the client identified as message, on older Wine/Proton versions, now I downloaded the newest , and I get them 🙂 but on PC it synced also already gotten acheivement that weren't unlocked yet, on comet didn't have them 🙂 so can't verify yet if its working though 😄
equal-aqua•4mo ago
could be game-specific issue
deep-jade•4mo ago
Ah had to get another cheevo 🙂 now it synced 19 more 😄
equal-aqua•4mo ago
some games may not unlock achievements retroactively
you got lucky with this one 😄
deep-jade•4mo ago
I knew dead cells was a good game 😂 😂 even the Cheetos unlock retroactively
equal-aqua•4mo ago
you are using a windows version of the game right?
deep-jade•3mo ago
Sorry didn't respond anymore, but yeah i was using the windows version, and all is working fine thanks @Linguin for your help
