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 v4.75

Below is a complete new installation for Aurora v4.75. This will replace all previous installations (I will delete those threads to ensure no confusion) and any future patches will be based on this version, or more likely I will continue to update the full install for each new version along with a patch for existing installations. The v4.70 and v4.75 patches are for upgrading from earlier versions and are not required when using this full installation. If you already have v4.2 or later it will be much faster to use those patches than this full installation

Full Install for v4.75 (65MB) 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 AuroraUpdate475.zip
  • 2) Run Setup.exe. This should run a standard Microsoft install program, installing to the default C:\Program Files\Aurora directory
  • 3) Unzip AuroraUpdate475.zip into the same directory and answer yes to overwriting two files.

Aurora 4.75 Install

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
