Game Setup Guide.

1. Have World of Warcaft and The Lich King Retail Client Installed

Download the following files and extract them with any .rar extractor, often this will be faster than downloading a torrent as you can download multiple files at one time. If you are looking for a good Free RAR extractor, try 7 zip you can download it HERE. If you are using 7 zip to extract this archive simply start up 7 zip and navigate to where you saved the files below and double click part 01 and click the extract button. When you are done extracting the archive below, you can skip to STEP 4.

3. Go into your WoW folder (usually called World of Warcraft\Data\enUS\), open the file called realmlist.wtf in notepad and change it to say only the one line below:

set realmlist wow.dethpod.com

Then save file and close

If you have downloaded the game from STEP 1, you can skip this step and move to STEP 4.

You can also download the file here: realmlist.zip and overwrite/replace the one in your World of warcraft\Data\enUS\ folder. If you cannont edit or replace the realmlist.wtf file make sure it isn't set to "read only" (right click file and check properties, if you have vista problems, see below). Or use our launcher to replace the file with the set realmlist button.

Or if you want to switch back and forth from retail to our server you can comment out lines like so:

this one will join to retail because our line is commented out:

this one will join to Dethpod because the blizzard lines are commented out:

set realmlist wow.dethpod.com
//set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
//set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com

we suggest you may want to comment out the patchlist line anyway so your client dont upgrade. Vista users, you may not be able to modify and save this file if thats the case move your entire game out of the program files folder to anyplace else, vista has some strange protection on that folder.

4. Make a website account at http://wow.dethpod.com/TrinityWeb/index.php?n=account&sub=register

Once that is done, you are all ready to log in with your account information and get playing! We are in no way Affiliated with any torrent downloads or WoW Files in any way, we may provide links to sites but they have nothing to do with wow.dethpod.com.

5. Staying on Dethpod and not allowing your game client to update.

1. Never start the game using blizzard's launcher (launcher.exe)

2. Either use our dethpod_launcher.exe or start the game by double clicking wow.exe in your world of warcraft folder.

3. Delete or "Comment out" the patchlist line from your realmlist.wtf file to disable update checks (check step 4 for more info).

4. Delete the games shortcut icon that blizzard places on your desktop.

5. Or create your own shortcut for the game. Find wow.exe, right click and select create new shortcut, and drag that icon to your desktop.

6. In case you upgraded by accident check this forum page for Downgrading Help
