General_Durandal Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 When I first was downloading/updating Warframe with the EGSL it got down to 20k-MB left, but I couldn't launch Warframe on Steam while it was up, it just kept stopping the steam's version of the launcher. So I stopped the EGS update for it, which was around 20k-MB left, then I started the steam version of Warframe, and started the EGS version, so it could download/update, while playing the Steam version. Well, it is currently at 24,663-MB, which is more then 20k, so it must have undone some of what was already done in that short period. It's downloading/updating at less then 1MB per second, (when it should be 3MB per second at least, 5MB at most) so it's going to take a few days to finish. All this just for 3 weapon skins and a syandana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PublikDomain Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Or instead of downloading all of that data again you could copy/paste your files from the Steam client. Copy the contents of ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Warframe\ into ...\Epic\Warframe\Downloaded\. And that's it. Should take a few minutes and then you can launch through EGS.

IIRC you've gotta get to the updating step from the Warframe launcher first, after you accept the EULA and it restarts once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend says EGS has the right to sell your data and passwords, that it says so in the agreement. Does it say that in the agreement? What do you think about that? Is it safe?

PublikDomain Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 EGS' folder structure is slightly different than Steam's. Where Steam installs Warframe to /steamapps/common/Warframe/, EGS installs Warframe to /Epic/Warframe/Downloaded/. You'd have to put the downloaded content under that folder for the Warframe launcher to recognize it. 15 minutes ago, General_Durandal said: But thinking maybe I shouldn't.

Use a burner email (eg https://temp-mail.org/en/) and use a random password (https://1password.com/password-generator/) if you're concerned about that. They surely use collected analytics data, but so does everyone. Google and Apple and Microsoft and Valve and yes even Digital Extremes collects user data and will have a clause that states that they can share it with someone.

Thank you very much for all of your help. o7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
