Burning Crusade download and setup tutorial:
Go to this link http://www.smolderforge.com/site/home/downloads
Now you'll see a variation of different files.

You've got 2 options here.
1 Click to download '' WoW Burning Crusade 2.4.3 (Pre-installed) '' if you want the game to be already updated and installed. All you need to do is unzip it.

2 Click to download '' World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade (Installers & Patches) '' if you wish to manually install the game yourself.


Manual Installation
Open folder ''Classic Client'''and run Installer.exe
Wait for the install to finish.
Go to folder ''Burning Crusade'' and run Installer.exe
Wait for the installation to finish.
Go to folder '' Wow Patches '' and you'll see a bunch of .EXE files.
Run the first one that says ''WoW Patch-2.0.0-2.3.0.exe ''
While it's installing go to your ''World of Warcraft'' folder.
Inside you'll find a file called Launcher.exe
RENAME IT to LauncherX.exe and leave it like that.
Usually after a patch installation WoW detects your Launcher.exe and starts to update the game automatically. This way we're preventing that from happening just in case.
After the installation of the first Patch file continue with the next one. You need to go from 2.0.0. to 2.4.3. After correctly installing everything your game's version should be 2.4.3. To check that start WoW.exe from your ''World Of Warcraft'' folder and check the numbers at the bottom left corner like here:

Connecting to Smolderforge
Open your ''World Of Warcraft'' folder. Look for a file called realmlist.wtf . Right click on it and open it with Notepad or a similar program.
Erase everything inside and paste this:

Code: Select all

set realmlist connect.smolderforge.com

Save it as .wtf (just like it was before you opened it) and close it.
After that run Wow.exe and login with your account!
Don't forget to vote for the server!
