Release - v2.1.11

on GitHub

Steam Integration for GOG Galaxy 2.1+ (64-bit) - v2.1.11

This maintenance release improves Steam connection cleanup during shutdown, cancellation, and reconnection.

✨ Highlights

• Connection Cleanup: The plugin now stops and waits for its connection and background tasks when closing a Steam session.
• Authentication Cleanup: Pending authentication tasks are properly canceled when a connection ends.
• Reconnection Handling: Network-error retries now close the previous connection before reconnecting.

💙 Special Thanks

Special thanks to our longtime friend Hustlefan for sharing detailed logs and observations. His reports about delayed achievements helped uncover separate Steam connection cleanup issues addressed in this release.

For the complete list of changes and technical details, please see the project's CHANGELOG.md.

🔧 Installation

1. Close GOG Galaxy completely.
2. Extract galaxy-steam-plugin-v2.1.11-64bit.zip into:
   %localappdata%\GOG.com\Galaxy\plugins\installed
   Replace the existing plugin files when prompted.
3. Restart GOG Galaxy.
4. If already connected, use Sync Integration. For a new installation, connect your Steam account via Settings -> Integrations.

Existing users do not need to disconnect Steam or delete the plugin's storage database to apply this update.

📌 Known Limitations

• Achievement Synchronization: Achievement-response timeouts remain under investigation. This release does not resolve missing achievement catalog entries or delayed Activity Feed updates.
• Empty Libraries: Reports of empty libraries after connecting Steam remain under investigation. This release does not claim to resolve that issue.
• Galaxy Shutdown: These changes improve the plugin's connection cleanup but do not claim to resolve GOG Galaxy client shutdown hangs.
