Note on installation

If you already have Aurora installed, the complete install is unnecesary and you can install the new v4.2 patch instead.

Full Install for v4.2

There is one extra step than normal for a full install so please ensure you follow the instructions below

  • 1) Download AuroraInstall and unzip it. You will have four files called Aurora.CAB, Setup.exe, Setup.LST and AuroraUpdate.zip
  • 2) Run Setup.exe. This should run a standard Microsoft install program, installing to the default C:\Program Files\Aurora directory
  • 3) Unzip AuroraUpdate.zip into the same directory and answer yes to overwriting two files.

v4.2 patch

This patch can be applied to version 1.2 or later and includes a new database that will overwrite any saved games. To apply the patch just unzip the contents into the installation directory, overwriting two files. It is unnecessary for the full install as that is already v4.2
