Myst - Masterpiece Edition - GOG - ScummVM - program folder empty after installation

[jeffvandyke]

Installer downloads files from GOG.com properly, selects English language correctly, and the installer finishes quickly and exits with code 0, but browsing the game folder, it looks like nothing at all is there (no spaces in file path).

Here is the logs from failing to launch:

Running /home/jeff/.local/share/lutris/runners/scummvm/bin/scummvm --extrapath=/home/jeff/.local/share/lutris/runners/scummvm/share/scummvm --themepath=/home/jeff/.local/share/lutris/runners/scummvm/share/scummvm --aspect-ratio --fullscreen --gfx-mode=3x --path=/home/jeff/Recreation/Games/Lutris/myst-masterpiece-edition myst-win-mohawk

I can provide any other information needed to resolve this issue

I just ran into the same problem with Riven, but updating to Lutris 0.5.5 resolved it.

[legluondunet]

Just fixed. Please reinstall the game.

Sorry for the delay, finally got around to testing it, great step forward, but now the error from logs is:

[legluondunet]

This time I can not reproduce your issue.
Did you update Lutris to last version 0.5.6?
Could you try to reinstall the ScummVM runner (delete, reinstall).

[jeffvandyke]

Alright, tried again, upgraded Lutris to 0.5.6, deleted ScummVM, then tried re-installing the program, but got the same end result as before - it tries to run something called myst-win, but that file isn't present.

I did notice: is the "gog" field normal in this section from the Myst install script?:

    "files": [
        {
            "inno": "http://constexpr.org/innoextract/files/snapshots/innoextract-1.8-dev-2019-01-13/innoextract-1.8-dev-2019-01-13-linux.tar.xz"
        },
        {
            "gog": "N/A:Select the GOG setup file"
        }
    ],

[legluondunet]

I can finally reproduce your issue, I'll give you info soon...

[legluondunet]

It's another issue relative to Lutris: for the moment it is difficult to change or choose language with Lutris ScummVM runner.
The first issue of this thread is resolved, so I close this one and open another issue.
