So it seems people are having some difficulties with the WEB DOWNLOAD, so I made this little tutorial on how use this download and what you need to do to make the game install.

For information about the uTorrent download please go here (http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=56712.0#quickreply)



Alright so firstly, download the file here (http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=56609.0):

!!CLICK THE WEB DOWNLOAD - NOT THE TORRENT DOWNLOAD!!


You'll get forwarded to the download page, click the link as it shows on the image:

Your computer will most likely request that you confirm this download, when it does click "save":

Choose a folder to save the file to:

After the download is complete, go to the chosen folder, (where you saved the file) and right click the file icon:

Choose "Run as administrator":

Your firewall might ask you if you want to block aria2c.exe, which you do not want to block, so allow access.
Then you will most likely have this pop up:

Now don't worry, this is simply you seeding the download - this is not something that will harm your computer in any way! And you can shut it down after you've installed the game if you want to, or keep seeding for awhile to make the download quicker for your fellow players.


It might take awhile, but you should get a blinking icon down on your task bar;

- where your computer will ask if you want to run FHsetup1.15.exe ; click "Run"

And taadaa, the new FHsetup1.15.exe will start the installation of the game.
Then:

Once you have successfully installed FH into your computer make sure that you log into the website and on the top right corner (in the big gold log in box) select the "user panel" option.

Because your old character are still stuck in limbo on the old FH maps you'll need to use the character reset option to reset their new home and send them there. If you do not do this you will simply get a "failed to connect to map server" message every time you try to access an old character.

Once this is done press the "Play Game" option on the site and log in. Leave the window open while you play.

Then simply open up your Feral Heart game and have fun.



I hope this will help! <3

Do I have to wait for it to finish seeding before I try to enter the game? It didn't work at home, so I am truly hoping for the best! Thank you for the tutorial!

Yes.
Once the download is complete and when you see that blinking box that's in the picture pop up and you click 'yes' you should be good to go. ^^

Hakumi, it won't mess my game up that I went in early, will it? It's taking so long to seed. And I finally got in and people could see me but not hear me.

I've heard that the seeding can take quite awhile. Just give it some time fluff, it may work itself out. ^^

Okay, so. I did put the adminstrator's password in, but after that it says: "7-Zip: Unsupported Method." No matter what have I tried, but it still won't work.

Help me, please ;-;?

If you tried the web download and the torrent and that message is still popping up, then hopefully a regular download will be released since those two downloads have been giving users some issues. ^^;

Thanks this helps, I'm not use to seeds. Hey does anyone know if mass markings and pawsome items still work in this patch?

Hi, I did this and it downloaded perfectly, and I rest my characters but still end up in a black map. Please help me, what do I do?

You reset their homes but did you 'Go Home' after you did the reset?

I have a question. Can you help a floof in need? I've reinstalled the game many times, thought whenever I log in my computer tells me ' FeralHeart.exe has stopped working ' I have run it as the admin of my computer, but haven't tried it yet, though I think it will just give the same message. (Sorry if this message doesn't make any sense. ;^;)

Make sure you don't have any duplicate particles / folders for this makes Feral-Heart crash in most cases. Also, you can try changing rendering Systems as well and seeing if that works.
