"start the Witcher 3 on GOG Galaxy to get your rewards"
I wanted to ask how that´s supposed to work for a steam game but it crashes right on start anyways so F it

GoG is trying to pos itself as the god launcher of all games. instead of fighting for store sales between epic steam and every other piece of trash out there. its trying to make itself as the one launcher to rule them all deal by getting players to launch all their games across all their platforms through GoG. Then as players get used to puddling around gog that eventually translates to store sales. its a neat approach in the platform wars to be sure.

it does this by allowing the player to scan for games in their library or simply allowing you to locate the .exe on your own.

to get the rewards you need only to update the witcher 3 to 4.0 in steam then link the .exe....not the pre-launcher...through GoG. start it up and youre good to go. you dont need to actually own it on Gog.

how would you go about doing that manually if you don't mind my asking. every time i try google it give me information on the gog automated steam link and that hasn't done diddly.

Actually for Steam it's 'login to your gog account through the RED Launcher' to get the rewards.

Now I'm trying to figure out how to do it completely offline because I don't own Witcher 3 on Steam but on GOG... and their GOG Galaxy isn't trustworthy imo as apparently they upload a list of known games to their server....

So poking around trying to find the switches necessary & the player profile has this in it:

---

[Galaxy]
regUrlPlain=
DevSaveMarks=false
regUrlCoded=
tokenRefA=
RewardsState=
regTokenExpiryH=0
regTokenPlain=
regQRCode=
SaveAllowTickMarks=true
regTokenCoded=
tokenRefX=
regTokenExpiryL=0

---

Now I tried setting RewardsState= to true & it didn't do anything... I have no idea what to set the other items to to try.
