[One Step from Eden gog issue] Gog Cloud save miss identification
Heroic (linux) mentions the windows version of onestep from eden doesn't support cloud saves. The weird thing is the game does support cloud saves and the mac version of heroic (with mac native game) is able to detect cloud saves. Any ideas?

do Mac native games support cloud saves?
at least in the case of Linux native games, they do not.
Windows builds should do cloud saves unless the metadata is incorrect
metropolitan-bronze•3mo ago
apparantly they do
national-goldOP•3mo ago

windows version errors cloudsave even on mac

sort of, but I don't know how to make it stick. it's recorded in
~/.config/heroic/store_cache/gog_library.json or ~/.var/app/config/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl/heroic/store_cache/gog_library.json, but it resets after opening the game's settings once. I tested this by setting cloud sync to false for a game that does work, but it goes to true immediatelynational-goldOP•3mo ago
ah rip. I'll probably just use ludusavi for backups for cloud for now (google drive)
out of curiousity how does launch scripts work for heroic?
will heroic wait for script to run first then open game or will it run the script and open the game at same time?
adverse-sapphire•3mo ago
it waits, and if you want to launch it in parallel you can make the script async so it ends and the other thing keeps running in the background, my PR when I implemented that has an example https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/pull/3565, I imagine you mean the before script
keep in mind that runs ouside wine, if you want to run something within the context of the game (like executed by wine), what you need is a custom .bat script set as an alternative executable

out of curiosity what happens if a script fails
example say you had a script to run rclone when opening the game/closing the game and you have an internet outage (so rclone cant sync to cloud)
adverse-sapphire•3mo ago
we don't check the exit status, so the game will start normally
