Banished Wrapper update with “music fix”!

On October 12, 2017 / News, Strategy, Wrapper updates / Leave a comment

Here another quick heads up! We updated the Banished (32bit) wrapper with a Music Fix. As you may know the recent port of course had sounds, but no music. This has been fixed now as well. Enjoy Banished in it’s full glory now, with sound and music! How to update? Trash or backup/move the old wrapper out of the applications\games folder and download the 32 bit Banished GOG setup file into your download folder. Then in Porting Kit search the updated game on the server tab and install and play!

What’s new:
– Music fix!

Star Wars – Battlefront 2 Wrapper update!

On October 12, 2017 / Action, News, Portingkit, Wrapper updates / Leave a comment

I got some mails from people who tried to install Star Wars Battlefront 2, into Porting Kit, but it didn’t work anymore because first the setup was not automatically recognized + main exe path was changed + a new dll was required. All of this has to do with a recent update of the game on GOG.com. They released new installers with multiplayer support using GOG Galaxy (which is not available yet in Porting kit) and changed the setup files of the “Battle Front 2 Classic XP/Vista (no multiplayer)” version (which is supported in Porting Kit).

So, to play the game in Porting Kit you need to download the “Battle Front 2 Classic XP/Vista” setup files (not the ones for multiplayer) and let porting Kit install it and start the fun. We are looking to the Multiplayer Galaxy support version, but until then use the one mentioned above.

Changed:
– Fixed auto-detect GOG setup file
– Updated main path .exe
– Fixed startup issue (extra binkw32.dll required)

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky Wrapper update.

On October 5, 2017 / Action, GOG.com Games, Portingkit, Wrapper updates / Leave a comment

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky seemed to have an issue with the launcher with the latest version of the game (asks for serial). This has been addressed and now contains 2 shortcuts. One for the Launcher and one for the main game. In the Launcher you can set language and a few more settings, while you can launch the game itself in the main game shortcut. Have fun!

Changes:
– Extra shortcut for the main game exe + fix

Some more news and Gwent fixed!

On September 29, 2017 / News, Wrapper updates / Leave a comment

Ok, there is a lot going on at the moment considering High Sierra, so sorry for some days without blogposts. We found out that the open beta release of High Sierra 10.13 is a complete mess :P also for PK. So absolutely don’t update to High Sierra yet. It looks like thinks are fixed in 10.13.1 (beta). So at least wait for 10.13.1 and out green light to update.

Next to that we are working hard on an upgraded Wineskin which will be called Wineskin Navy. Which will be contain some important extras which is needed to fix for example killing the Pre-loader processes properly in the Winestaging engines and will through time be revamped and improved more and more fitting for Porting Kit.

Meanwhile we found a fix for Gwent (thanks for tip BTL) and updated the wrapper.

On August 7, 2017 / Portingkit, Simulator, Steam, Wrapper updates / Comments Off

Kinguin is supporting Porting Kit/Paulthetall.com with a small amount of “Bonus EurBalance” per month so I can purchase a couple of games per month in order to port them. This month I purchased 5 Steam games to make new game ports and extra Steam sources for existing game ports. Two of them are 18 Wheels of Steel Long Haul and Extreme Trucker. Both games have besides a Gamersgate Source, now also a Steam source (=Windows Steam Client install where you can add the game serial, and then download and play the game).
