    Is it possible that the compression format got changed by the new patch server?

    I may be looking at the totally wrong thing, but I poked around a bit, and I think the problem might be coming from line 400 in patcher.py:
    decompressor = zlib.decompressobj(zlib.MAX_WBITS|32)

    That's even commented as:
    #NOTE : Without the `winsize` parameter set to `zlib.MAX_WBITS` decompression will fail with an error:
    # zlib.error: Error -3 while decompressing data: incorrect header check
    #NOTE : Without bitwise adding 32 to the `winsize` parameter decompression will fail with an error:
    # zlib.error: Error -3 while decompressing data: invalid distance too far back
    # More information about options: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1838699

    I played around with different parameters to decompressobj a bit but didn't come up with anything useful. Since the current options are supposed to auto-detect the header, maybe the format got changed to something other than zlib or gzip? Although it seems that would have required a change to the Windows client too...

    There's an open issue now here regarding this problem. I'm sure Shardragon will be able to get to it fairly soon.

    In the meantime, running through Wine is possible, as long as directx11 is disabled in the wine config.

    As I mentioned in http://forum.projectgorgon.com/showt...=1666#post1666 this is probably a server issue unfortunately and there's not a lot I can do about it. Please watch that channel or the GitLab issue if you're interested in the current progress on resolving this. I'll report back once the status on this changes.

    I posted a patch here: http://forum.projectgorgon.com/showt...ull=1#post1718

    Simple change. Please make appropriate changes to the distro. And thanks for creating the Linux port!!!

    Hi guys, just wondering where the files are downloaded and installed to, having trouble finding them, and the launcher redownloads all the files every time I uses it.

    I guess this would depend on your operating system and settings. My system prompted me for a download location for the launcher, and again when i ran the launcher it asked me for an installation directory for the files.

    Perhaps try doing a file search. For example on my Windows system, the launcher is called ProjectGorgonLauncherWin.exe and the client executable (don't actually execute this manually though, always run the launcher) is called WindowsPlayer.exe

    Hope that helped a little.

    Edit: I guess i should have looked at the thread title before posting...

    On my Manjaro install the files are in ~/.local/games/project-gorgon

    Cannot answer why the launcher is redownloading.
