Client Installers

slim versions do not include game cinematic files, making download smaller.

11/25/2017:  Fixed an issue with the download protection script. Links are working again.

FAQ:

• How do I install classic (vanilla) client?

  Download the official classic installer above and run the installer. Once it has finished installing, you may need to patch your client to the same version as the server that you are playing on, typically version 1.12.1. You can download the 1.12.0 patch, then the 1.12.1 patch. Be sure to close out of the launcher at the end of the installation of each patch, as it tries to download the latest client version.

• How do I install Burning Crusade client?

  First, install the classic client from the above link. Second, download and install the Burning Crusade client above. Once Burning Crusades has been installed, you may need to patch your client to the same version as the server that you are playing on, typically version 2.4.3 which can be found on the patch downloads page. Note you do not need to perform any client patches to vanilla installs prior to installing Burning Crusade. Be sure to close out of the launcher at the end of the installation of each patch, as it tries to download the latest client version.
