The latest version of Aurora can be found on the forums. There are two stages to installing Aurora: download the base game, and download any patches.

Installation

Aurora versions are labelled vX.Y.Z, where X.Y represents the latest database patch (for example, v1.9) and Z represents the latest executable patch (for example, v1.9.5).

2) Download the latest database patch (as described above)

System Requirements

Operating system: Microsoft Windows, however, people have manged to run it under Wine on Linux.

Number format: If you are living in a country which uses the comma (,) for decimal separator, then while playing Aurora you have to switch the Regional Settings of your computer over to US or UK or another country that uses the period (.) as the decimal separator. This is done automatically when using the Portable Aurora package.

Minimum resolution: The minimum resolution required is 1440x900. A higher resolution or multiple monitors will allow you to see more windows at once. There exist some utilities and approved mods that allow you to play the game with a smaller screen.
