Installing on two computers help

Asm0deusAsm0deus Member EpicPosts: 4,622

Hi, I play with my wife and usually, since we have a monthly usage cap, I install games on my pc and then copy the folder over to her pc to avoid having to download a huge amount twice.

Sometimes this can be tricky and I have to start installing on her pc like you would normally then cancel and copy the "updated files" over. I then restart client and game detects files does a verification and and I am good to go.

For AA though I am not having any luck the Glyph platform doesn't seem to detect the 23gb file I copied over and wants to redownload the whole 23gb.

Anyone get this running on two pc and not have to download twice? If so how did you proceed?

    I had this issue.

    You need to point glyph (settings at the top) to the specific archeage folder that has the game_pak file and it will recognize and not try to redownload the entire game again.

    Im not sure, but maybe you have to copy the archeage folder from your user windows. At work atm, cant confirm.

    In RU was the only way i manage to trasnfer AA from one pc to other without download it again.

    Thanks for the replies guys!

     

    Artwolf you are spot on.

    I had the glyph setting pointing to c/games/archeage and I needed to go a folder deeper to c/games/archeage/live   as the gamepak file was in live.

    ofc servers are offline so can't test it till they come back online but it is not redownloading and told me game was up to date  and play button turned to offline so pretty sure it worked!
