Decided to try grabbing my first game from fitgirl and all was good until running the setup.exe. Since I have a seedbox nothing could be downloaded because the .exe file couldn't find the bins on my computer. How do I go about pulling the game from my seedbox to computer? Do I grab a private file sharing app and move the files that way or just download every game file from the seedbox to the computer?

You could maybe setup a SMB share targeting your download location, mount that on the computer you’d like to install on, then point the setup.exe at the SMB share for the bin files.

...did....did you try running an executable on a remote seedbox, headlessly?

SSH and wget. What have you already tried?

After using qbittorrent I opened filebrowser(app in ultra.cc) and downloaded the setup.exe from there. I suppose I could download every file from the game in filebrowser and that would probably work too, but I would rather the download be secure. Ill look into SSH and wget.

You need the whole folder to install the game. You can use FTP or wget to download the folder.
