Basically if you’ve got the torrent fully downloaded you extract the files and run the installer. I’m assuming that you downloaded the torrent then used to torrent program such as BitTorrent to download the actual game files.

I can’t even get Bittorrent to even find the damned torrent and people already have it? How? It’ll sit there for hours “downloading” and staying at 0%.

@ lightswitch, Yessir, I used qbtorrent it read 100% , and on the forum dl the file size is 2.o7 gigs and that is what I have.

@ tommygun , when you write run setup , do you mean just run/double click or right click/run as admin?

I use Bittorrent. Theoretically that shouldn’t matter.

Double-click, yes, I’m not sure if I start any program as admin, I don’t recall declaring such an option, I don’t think in Win7 it is necessary.

So wherever your torrent downloaded to there should be a compressed file. You simply extract everything from that folder to wherever you want it stored. Inside should be a folder that includes a setup.exe. Just run the executable and you should be in business.

I just ran it (the setup.exe), but at some stage I had to give admin permission. One thing I was initially confused about is what about the old 4.33 install? It turns out that you get a new install of 4.34 which is independent from the 4.33. Thats very nice and a good solution

My download is still not progressing. Still sitting at 0%. Sigh.
Please allow direct download.

Yes 4.34 is its own brand new standalone sim. You can get rid of 4.33 if you like.

Although you might want to copy one or two config files from the old installation first.
