Release - v2.1.8

on GitHub

Steam Integration for GOG Galaxy 2.1+ (64-bit) - v2.1.8

This maintenance release further improves authentication stability, local library synchronization, and platform compatibility. Several additional edge cases have been addressed to make the integration more resilient while preserving all existing functionality.

✨ Highlights

• Fixed: Repeated Steam login after every reboot. The plugin no longer derives its credential encryption key from scratch on every startup. Instead, the key is established once and reused, preventing stale or unavailable system identifiers from forcing a full re-login (including two-factor authentication) after every reboot.
• More Reliable Local Library Detection: Local game discovery now handles missing or incomplete client information more gracefully, reducing unnecessary synchronization failures.
• Improved Cross-Platform Compatibility: Platform-specific functionality is validated more carefully to ensure correct behavior on Windows and macOS.
• Better Synchronization Reliability: Internal validation and error handling have been refined to improve long-term stability during library imports.
• 64-bit & Python 3.13: Fully compatible with GOG Galaxy 2.1+ (64-bit).

Note: Steam achievements depend partly on metadata provided by GOG Galaxy. If achievements are unavailable for a specific title, this is typically a metadata limitation rather than a plugin issue.
