DDI / HL data question

kunger00 · July 6th, 2011, 07:40 PM

I'm currently using the DDI downloader to populate HL. It's been running for over 5 hours now...

Do I need to do this with my laptop too? Or can I just copy the files from my desktop to my laptop once the downloader is finished?

Thanks!

The downloader runs slowly to emulate a human hitting the site. This is a key reason why Hero Lab has not been targeted by Wizards as a problem - like certain other tools. Once the download completes on one computer, you can copy the entire contents of the "4e" folder to another computer and be good to go. No additional download is needed.

Kunger00,
I do the same thing download on my PC then to copy and paste to my laptop (saving a ton of time). Just need to place it in the correct files and your good to go.
