Title: HELP - SEEDING
Post by: BlazeFireWolf on June 10, 2016, 08:33:45 pm

So, the box has been seeding for a long time. It looks like it just reached the bottom of the page, but nothing has popped up or told me it's finished. Do I close it? I got on during the seeding because I hadn't been told I couldn't, and no one could see my chats, but could see my character. Is that going to happen again? Should I wait for something to pop up or is the seeding box going to go away? Please help! Thanks!

Usually what happened to me...was when the game finished installing, I thought something else was supposed to pop up but as I waited, I went on ahead and closed it after a good while.
Jumped on the login tab, logged in and then jumped on the game and everything worked for me c:

Seeding is not the actual download. Now, I really 'ave no experience with this sort of tech, but I know it does speed up the download process. Ye can leave it going f'er however long ye like- even when the actual game download finishes! It does no harm to y'er computer, but if ye want, ye may close it whenever the game finishes installing.

Hey dude,

When you use a torrent you are downloading the file which in this case is the FH Installer. After you are done downloading the Installer the program (UTorrent, BitTorrent, whichever you are using) will Seed the file. What this is doing is letting other people use your copy of the Installer to download it with their torrent program.

You can shut this off if you want, your installer is downloaded and there is no need to keep doing that :]
