Lemmy get this straight, the bottom 5-6 files will always get errored out unless I have a fresh installation of this Pre Installed game ?
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
So I downloaded this Pre-Installed game from a respected torrent site. But whenever I run the game, the bottom 5 files get updated/changed apparently. And this torrent goes to the error section in Qbittorrent. Now I have to delete the exe and other small files from my folder and redownload them again through this torrent else this torrent wouldn't seed.
So I would not be able to seed those bottom 5 files unless I have a completely fresh install of the game ? and that means, I either have to unselect those bottom 5 files from my torrent client or create a copy of the game in another Folder so the exe and other python files don't get updated as I play the game ?
Wait, you directly play game from the torrent directory?
I don't think that's how it's supposed to be done.
I don't what you mean by that ? I'm on the contents tab of that torrent in Qbittorrent, to play the game, I open the folder in which I have saved this game and double click the exe. But if I run the game, some files get updated and the bottom 5 files now, don't match the ones in the torrent. Because of which I have to delete the exe and other small files and redownload them through the torrent to keep the full torrent seeding.
The save files are stored in appdata so that doesn't affect the game and my saves are safe.
Am I doing it all wrong, should I just hardlink the big files into another folder on the disk and then copy those exe and other small files and double click the exe that is in the new folder ?
This way the torrent directly would be unchanged and I'd get to enjoy the game without being worried about the small files being updated/changed everytime I double click the exe ?
You shouldn't need to open the torrent files at all, you should have a copy on your own hard drive and access it from there
