Hi! Developer of pglauncher here!



PS: And can I get access to the opening post so that I post new releases, etc?

edited to avoid confusion. I thought this happened in the other non-official linux thread..

Left a response on GitLab as well, but this is solved by changing the download location ever so slightly. All the files are now including .dat at the end of the filename. The windows player also uses http://client.projectgorgon.com - I'm not sure if changing from http://cdn.projectgorgon.com is necessary or not, but I changed it just in case.

So for instance:

http://client.projectgorgon.com/v274...ectGorgon.0000
http://client.projectgorgon.com/v274...agers.0000.dat

Those work.
