Hey, it's not true, I mean Deus Ex 1.6.3 Revision mod distributed on GOG doesn't requires a GOG Galaxy launcher to run.

Out of curiosity I installed it now and when I ran it, it didn't launch Galaxy at all, it started regularly like every other GOG game.

It was true when I've tried it. Were there any updates to this mod recently?

According to GOGDB on 2025-06-02, removed/added same version number 1.112fm(Revision 1.6.3.0), so maybe changed this behavior.

Maybe you could try again the mod and update the description 🙂

(I don't know if anything else was changed in the 2025-06-02 update and if your patch also needs to be changed)

UPDATE 🙂

I found "Deus Ex" and "Deus Ex: Revision mod" offline installers I had archived in 2022, as I said same version, tested with WinMerge with those downloaded yesterday, it detects them identical.

I then installed the version archived in 2022 (after uninstalling yesterday one - and restarting the PC just in case).

Launching the mod doesn't run GOG Galaxy.

I may have figured out what happened, though.
Could it be that when you tested it you ran it via the "Launch" button at the bottom right of the installation window?

In that case GOG Galaxy runs, but if instead you exit the installation and run the game from the links that are generated, only the game runs.

That would explain it. Thanks for sharing that info with me.

I love GOG and Revision, but it's a pretty annoying situation to offer such an outdated build of the product that requires some tinkering. 

For some reason, my GOG version of Revision is 1.6.1. 25/12/20 and not 1.6.3.

Installed the patch, most options have been reset, but besides that, it seems to be working. Hopefully, achievements won't be messed up even further (now they don't update in Galaxy app, but unlock and can be tracked on player profile viewed in a web browser).

Thanks for making the patch!

1. The latest GOG version is "1.112fm(Revision 1.6.3.0)", so you probably have some outdated build.

2. If you are annoyed with the situation, then don't tell that to me and instead report it to GOG's support. I can't do anything about it, but they can.

You're welcome.

1. Revision was installed directly from GOG Galaxy. I mainly use the Steam version and haven't manually installed it since ~v1.4 days, probably. I see 1.6.3 offline installers available to download, so if that default installation wasn't outdated, then that old Revision or BioMod messed with the displayed info on the main menu. Only mentioned it because of potential incompatibilities it might have caused.


2. I wasn't replying to any particular post or telling that to anyone, it was a general comment made about that situation. It's a community forum and since the patch is available here, that notion was expressed here.
I am aware unaffiliated modders are not GOG employees.

Yes, you were. You replied in the comment section of a file upload, not on a forum. Those are two different things. Also, my point was that it would be more lucrative if you shared your thoughts about the issue with GOG's support, because the more people do it, the greater the chance that something will change in the matter.
