Bring your game
1. Open Gunslugs 3 Rogue Tactics on GOG in your owned library and download the full Windows offline backup installer for the supported build (1.0.10b). Download every accompanying .bin part, if listed, and keep them beside the .exe. Use the full installer, not a patch or the Galaxy installer. 2. Run the installer on Windows and open the installed game directory. Find gunslugs3.dat beside the game executable. Enable file extensions in Explorer so its name is visible. 3. Copy that file unchanged into the installed port at <ports directory>/gunslugs3/gunslugs3.dat. Keep its exact name, capitalization and spaces. The Windows EXE and bundled Windows Java runtime are not needed.
Alternatively, extract your full offline installer using innoextract. Run innoextract -d extracted "your-full-offline-installer.exe", then locate gunslugs3.dat inside the extracted files (usually extracted/app/) and copy it to the same destination. Installer layouts vary; use Windows installation if your extractor cannot read that installer. Do not unpack or rename the game archive itself.
No game-data conversion is required on a PC or handheld. The handheld verifies the supplied archive and creates its save folders. It cannot generate the purchased game data from nothing.
Supported archive SHA-256 (gunslugs3.dat):
8e9f0784c8824119ac5572baa09e9d93e317ffd0a6ad3f1de1be4a76e61bebdfCompare it with Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 "gunslugs3.dat" in PowerShell, or sha256sum "gunslugs3.dat" on Linux. A different build needs a compatibility check.
Install the port
- Update PortMaster. Copy Gunslugs3.zip into its
autoinstall/folder and open PortMaster. - Allow PortMaster to download Westonpack and Java 17. An internet connection is needed if these runtimes are not installed.
- Copy the owned game files into
gunslugs3/as described above. Launch Gunslugs 3 Rogue Tactics from your ports menu.
Manual installation paths
1. Update PortMaster. Put Gunslugs3.zip in PortMaster's autoinstall/ directory, then open PortMaster to install it. Connect to the network to download Java 17 and Westonpack if they are not installed yet. 2. Copy the owned file to <ports directory>/gunslugs3/gunslugs3.dat. 3. Launch Gunslugs 3 Rogue Tactics from your firmware's ports menu.
For manual installation on muOS, extract the ZIP on your computer and copy Gunslugs 3 Rogue Tactics.sh to <SD card>/roms/PORTS/, and the gunslugs3/ folder to <SD card>/ports/ on the card configured as the firmware's ports location. The required file is <SD card>/ports/gunslugs3/gunslugs3.dat.
For ArkOS/dArkOS and standard ports layouts, extract the ZIP into your configured ports directory (for example /roms/ports/ or /roms2/ports/) so Gunslugs 3 Rogue Tactics.sh and gunslugs3/ are beside each other. Use the firmware's configured ports location; the launcher uses PortMaster's directory value. Avoid creating an extra Gunslugs3/ wrapper folder.
