Hello , I work for a school that teaches game development using unreal tournament. unfortunately we have a very slow network here and downloading large files causes the entire company network speed to slow down.
whenever unreal tournament comes out with an update, downloading it to every PC brings us to a crawl.
Is there any way to download the tournament update as a single install package and then push it to all the other PCs locally? I can either put it in an external drive or use our software deployment software , Altiris.
The only way to get the game for now is through the launcher, but there is always a way though!
The best practice is to download it at one PC lets call it computer A, and then with each other PC, you just start the download, and wait until it does any progress, and then close the launcher (don’t minimize to tray, close it and kill the process).
Now copy the game installation from computer A to the all other computers. When you open the launcher now, it must detect the game files and recognize it, and shows you a Launch/Play button rather than a Download button.
