Games with .exe and .bin files do not get installed

sudonikgr commented 5 years ago

I tried two things on Ubuntu 18.04.1: 1. installing XCOM: Enemy Unknown via download through Gamehub and 2. adding an installer and use previously downloaded 6 files (1 .exe and 5 .bin) through the big plus button on the top bar of Gamehub.

On both cases, the installer did not finish. It works well with .exe files and when time comes to go to the next (which are .bin files for GOG games) it stops and simply says "Not installed". I noticed this with other GOG games that have .exe and .bin. Games that only have 1 .exe file and nothing else work perfectly. Does anyone else have that problem?

You should not use plus button for supported games (those from Steam, GOG and Humble).

I need to know what exactly happens when you install game through GameHub. Run com.github.tkashkin.gamehub --debug --log-downloader in terminal and post its output here.

This is what I get in the terminal:

I don't see anything wrong in log. Did you actually try to reproduce your issue before copying log?

How are you trying to install the game? What compatibility layer are you trying to use and what layers do you have installed?

sudonikgr commented 5 years ago

Yes I successfully reproduced the issue before copying the log. I copied the .exe and .bin files in the proper folder so that it wouldn't need to download them again and then tried to install. So far I have tried all the layers, proton, wine 32 and 64, abrahms wine and innoextract. But no matter, no there's a different problem. I decided to start over, reinstall the app and remove all configuration/settings files, but every time I reinstall the app remembers the old settings. How do I completely remove everything in order to do a clean reinstallation?

tkashkin commented 5 years ago

rm -rf ~/.cache/com.github.tkashkin.gamehub/ to remove caches and database
dconf reset -f /com/github/tkashkin/gamehub to reset settings
sudo apt remove com.github.tkashkin.gamehub to remove package

Then install latest version and try again.

There is a new option to run it with a GDB debugger preconfigured and attached. Run com.github.tkashkin.gamehub --gdb --log-downloader

Was this solved in any way? I am trying to install Heroes of Might and Magic 3, and getting the same issue. Not only is the game says it is not installed, the folder where the files should be are empty.

tkashkin commented 5 years ago

@deckoff

Is this a Windows-only GOG game?
Which compatibility layers do you have listed in install dialog and which layers did you try to use?
Have you tried to uncheck silent install options if you have tried to install it with Wine or Proton? Some installers may try to show EULA and may not work in silent mode.

deckoff commented 5 years ago

OK, unchecking silend mode somehow solved it. Thanx!

neuromancer commented 5 years ago

I think the use of some default installer options (silent mode, no-GUI, etc) should be disabled when using the manual installer option.
