That, my friend, is a bug. They sometimes happen, since this is an alpha. There is a fix, on the preorder subforum. Once you link your forum account to preorder status, you just follow this link for Windows or Mac fixes. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a Linux fix yet.

To connect your forum account with your preorder status:

Click that, and it will expand into a larger section that has a link to wolfire.com/spf/redeem/(your key here) which will allow you to link your forum account.

What's the name of the file you downloaded, and the name of the file inside it? Which program did you download?

I can't help you without more information. And before anyone else starts wondering, yes, I noticed. :wink:

Ah, that's the problem. You downloaded the wrong file. You should download the file from here. Sorry for the confusion.

I knew there was something wrong here, but for a some reason I still posted that other link first. :?

Okay, I'll try. I don't know why the other links aren't working, though.

If that doesn't work, try doing this first, and then trying the previous link:

Well...

You haven't downloaded the file I linked you to, but some other random stuff.

You claim you have downloaded the file I linked to. It should have opened with winrar and shouldn't have required anything else. In addition, you could only follow the link to the Secret Preorder Forum if you had the preorder tag, which you don't have.

So if you couldn't have downloaded the file you say you downloaded, and you have some weird files I don't know anything about instead, and you're not a preorderer... well, it sure does look like you're a pirate. If you're not, I assume you'll have the preorder tag shortly. :P

Then all you have to do is log in with your other forum account that has a preorder tag on it and click on this link to get some more help, simple as that.
