Take a closer look at the screenshot of https://imgur.com/a/AT5uZfk

Only the game icons are put there, not the DLCs themselves (they are placed correctly).

Maybe it has something to do with the makeFilepath method in gamedetails.cpp, where there is a special treatment for these extra files?

I was wondering why it was only those files but couldn't find anything wrong with the code that makes the file paths.
Then I noticed that I forgot to handle some of the new details when saving/loading the cache.
Should be fixed by 37788ab

Sure, but in practice it's not faster than what I'm doing now, i.e. basically querying every installed game individually.

If your ratio of installed vs owned games is closer to 1:1 than your approach is fast enough.

It’s obviously not going any faster that way ;)

I suggested going through cron because this way you no longer have to care how long it takes, as you are not waiting for the command completion while it is running.

This on the other hand I’m not sure to get. I don’t see any link between LGOGDownloader and installed games.
(maybe it’s related to my use case? I only use it to download offline DRM-free installers and game extras)

Just for fun my current ratio is lower than 0,009, so very far from 1:1.

The reason it's releveant for me is that I have a list of currently installed games and update them using galaxy method of lgogdownloader (or pseudo galaxy for native Linux ones). But to decide what to update I prefer first to see that something needs an update.

So my script runs over each installed game and checks if its version is behind what's on the server backend and shows me a list which highlights what's outdated.

This could be useful for you.

Oh, neat. I'll give this a try, thanks!

Just tested it, it works nicely and is faster than the previous method. Thanks for adding this!

Here is how I read the remote version now (in case it's a Linux game):

local remote_version=$(lgogdownloader --galaxy-platform l --galaxy-show-builds $gog_id 2>/dev/null | rg '.*\(Version: (.*)\)$' --only-matching --replace '$1' | head -1)

Since this commit and up to the current the "no-subdirectories = true" setting results in everything being put in the base directory when before it put everything into game directories as per the help info "Don't create subdirectories for extras, patches and language packs"

oh, now I remember that I actually noticed that when I tested the changes.
Apparently I forgot to write that down on my notes when I was testing the changes.
So a few days later when doing fixes and cleanup on the code before pushing the commit I forgot change the behavior back to how it was previously

Thanks much appreciated

Can you please make a new tag, so Debian would pick it up before the upcoming freeze.
