vektsin 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 I installed and had no issues with the game. I am making this post for my buddy though. Can't seem to figure out why this isn't working. He DLs the wow files from https://pirateproxy.vip/torrent/5076223/ like posted on the page(same place i got mine). Everything is fine but when the DL finishes and he tries to open the file it doesn't work. When he opens the torrent all the icons and files open in internet explorer. We don't torrent often so not sure why this is happening. Thanks 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwadler 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 Can you try uploading your game files to Google Drive and having him download it that way? I did that for my friend and it worked perfectly fine. Otherwise it sounds like it may not be downloading every file or something is wrong with how his computer reads it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiamorah 20 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Hey vektsin, The files on that DL link are compressed into a zip file (.rar file). He needs winrar to open it, could that be the problem? Could you post a screenshot of what he is seeing? Edited January 3, 2017 by Shiamorah 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Microdots 7 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 Sounds like some of the torrent was corrupted during the download. Also, as Shiamorah stated a screenshot would better allow us to see what is going on. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is DL'ing it again. Sorry we aren't computer savvy. :| Edited January 3, 2017 by vektsin 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwadler 0 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 Okay, well if that works then awesome. For future reference though, Google Drive is a free service for up to 15GB of storage per gmail account. It's just a nice way of transferring big files around or using it to backup stuff where it won't get deleted if your computer has issues. But first option is to unzip the files properly. I believe Windows 7 and higher have a built in program to decompress files, but winrar and winzip are both good alternatives. Just make sure he keeps all the files in one main folder for organization and the game should run fine when launched from WoW.exe 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiamorah 20 Report post Posted January 3, 2017 Haha, yeah I have a career in IT and in most cases issues are a result of some silly mistake. I'm glad that you got everything figured out, enjoy playing together! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
