Technical problems with THE HORROR: downloading, installing, and running it
TashaYarrr:
For people having technical issues, I just wanted to mention a few things that are probably obvious to most, but still might help some people:
--Make sure you're using the latest video drivers for your video card. If you've had the card a long time, used a lot of different driver versions or 'rollbacks' it may be worth using a driver cleaner and starting from scratch. If you're using a laptop with an ATI mobility chipset, you may want to check out Mobility Modder, they may have newer ATI-compatible drivers than your laptop manufacturer has available.
--also try to find updated drivers for any other hardware (audio etc)
--It's probably a good idea to let Windows do its update thing and get the latest service packs and hotfixes
--Defrag your harddrives if you're not doing it automagically
--Run a full virus and spyware scan
--Speaking of virus and spyware scanning, if you're running anything hardcore, or with real-time scanning, you may want to try temporarily disabling it during gameplay and see if it improves anything
Again, I know this is probably basic stuff to most, but it really can make a difference.

Ouch, that sounds like the first site I tried. I tried every site people here suggested (I'm not kidding) and the only that moves at a good pace is the one from seedgames.com. You have to register but it's open registration. I've been downloading for three hours and I'm almost at 35%. I'd stop the download you have, it'll probably take another couple days to download.
I must be doing it wrong. I go to seedgames.com and all I get on any page I click there are lists of links to other websites. I don't see anywhere to register or download torrents.
its not .com as was previously posted,. it is http://seedgames.org

Tasha, I like that term "automagically." Really, I do.

Does the arr'd version/image that seems to be the main release (the reloaded one, have seen it anywhere from 4-5gb on various places) also include the mac/OSX version?
I can confirm it does. The Mac version shows up correctly, the keygen generates a working key, and it installs exactly as it should. I couldn't play that version, though, because at launch it will ask for internet connection and blah blah blah verification, therefore I didn't go further.

Oops, sorry, Kyna!
No biggie, I'm downloading it now. It's flying down, and it looks like I'll be playing the game tonight instead of waiting another 3 days.
