I`ve download from regular store downloader because of the galaxy speed problem bug this day back, but seems that it want(Galxy, after recognize the game installation and imported the folder) to download everything again or I missing something ?

****EDIT***

I duplicated the archives from the downloader folder into Galaxy folder, seems it working. 5 mins and not redownloading.

Actually you don't have to put them in Galaxy folder, Galaxy doesn't need 'em. Just keep in mind that if you accidentally click on the game installer in "Download Extras" section of Galaxy it will start re-downloading your archives from scratch, it doesn't verify files in its current state.

It can be, but for the time been I`ll keep a copy into the folder to avoid any future problems, want to teste the download trought the Galaxy client, grabing the last part trough it.

It really needs to check what you already have before reattempting download. Standard feature really.
Manual downloads for me indefinitely................ :)

That would be me, and yep it wiped my installer folder clean. At least the game is already installed, so its more of an inconvenience and not a raging "throw an end table through my tv" moment.

It is a standard feature but still missing. We have to navigate to see what we have installed and what not. I wonder what happens if it redownload the same thing. Just more space wasted? I was eager to try Galaxy but Im really disappointed due to the lack of this. It is crucial.

Like I said, I will forever while GoG exists download manually. I never allow anything to do things automatically.
