GOG store introduces One-Click Mods feature with support for Fallout: London and others by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The GOG store just announced a new feature to its platform that it is calling a new era for modding. Revealed at the PC Gaming Show, GOG One-Click Mods functions exactly like it sounds like, letting PC gamers browse, install, and play community creations easily and without jumping through hoops. "Mods are an essential part of video games preservation, allowing you to relive your favorite stories in countless possible ways," said the GOG team today. "Mods management, however – is not for everyone. Digging into game files, installing requirements, restarting the game thousands of times, making it crash every time… But no more." Unlike other modding platforms that let anyone upload their creations and let the user work out the details, GOG's version is a curated experience. By working directly with the modding teams, the popular DRM-free store's staff will be making sure that each of the mods available works instantly with the game, with no need for additional research or add-on installations. "From bug fixes, restored cut scenes, quests and characters, to completely freshly-made new content – we teamed-up with these community-driven projects creators to offer you this list of handpicked Mods," added the company. "Combining our strengths, these are now accessible right away, already installed within the base game for the smoothest experience!" Here are some of the mods available right now on the new platform: Horn of the Abyss for Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete. Horn of the Abyss is an expansion for Heroes of Might and Magic III that adds new factions, campaigns, creatures, artifacts, and numerous quality-of-life improvements, such as a working multiplayer lobby system. Phobos mod for DOOM 3. The Phobos Mod for DOOM is a prequel to the original game, delivering a narrative-driven, classic-style FPS experience with modern enhancements, set during the UAC's initial experiments on Mars' moon Phobos, adding many new gameplay hours. Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines Unofficial Patch for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines. The Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines Unofficial Patch does not only fixes numerous bugs left unresolved by the original developers but also restores and enhances cut content such as quests, levels, characters, and dialogue. Fallout: London One-Click experience for Fallout 4. You already had a chance to experience how great Fallout: London is – an alternate standalone storyline set in the United Kingdom, during the apocalypse events from Fallout 4. Now though, you can boot it with just one click – no launchers, no extra steps, just pure fun. Following that, the GOG team is working on introducing support for the Skyblivion total conversion mod when it releases later this year. This will let those who own The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary Edition on the platform install and jump into the modded Oblivion experience on the Skyrim engine easily. Check out the newly set-up mods platform on the GOG store by heading over here. -

Anno 117: Pax Romana gets a November release date as Ubisoft unveils Governor's Edition by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ubisoft's long-running city-building and management franchise, Anno, was first revealed to be receiving another entry back in 2024.

Once the first went to a full version number, some just egregiously long numbers with every iteration of compilations/dates/times... what have you, it was a landslide. Long gone are the days of IE version 6, 7... now it's Edge 137.0.3296.16. So, why not iOS 2026.18.8778.322.10.800? Shocked that Edge isn't 2025.137.0.3296.16... seriously. When Samsung went from S10 to S11, to S20... to S21... I thought they were just doing new iterations of the same/similar models, then the next would have logically been S30/S31... but nope. Oh well... better things to think about then version numbers, leave that to the devs. -

The problem -- as pointed to by the PowerShell output I quoted above -- was that for some reason it couldn't download the NuGet provider. Here's what did work: (1) Download the raw nupkg file (set-inetpubfolderacl.1.0.0.nupkg) from https://www.powershellgallery....s/Set-InetpubFolderAcl/1.0; (2) Extract (e.g., via 7-Zip) the Set-InetpubFolderAcl.ps1 file into C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts; (3) Run the script via PowerShell as described in the quite thorough instructions given at https://www.windowslatest.com/...t-on-windows-11-windows-10/ . That worked for me, or seemed to. Oh, relief! -

I like the show's/comic's violence being represented here, as so many others avoid it. Timing is key with this release due to the Marvel Tokon title.
