Full Game

Under windows, just install the game normally, apply the 1.21 patch and then use the Windows installer for Arx Libertatis.

For other operating systems, see Installing the game data under Linux

Buying a new copy on-line

The windows version of Arx Fatalis is available at various download-only stores:

Under windows, just install the game normally like with the cd and then use the Windows installer for Arx Libertatis. The download-only versions should already include the latest patch, so there is no reason to install it manually.

For other operating systems, there is a script to extract the GOG.com installer. For non-GOG.com versions, install the game normally and then just copy the data files.

Required files

The project is in need of checksums for the various versions of the data.

If you have a version not listed or you'd like to verify that you have the required files, please see Required data files and checksums.

Demo

Download arx_demo_english.zip or arxdemoenglish.zip (md5sum: 3c59a5799e1237b1b181c96e8c09155a)

The following sites work without a login and don't wrap the .zip file in an annoying .exe at the time of this writing.

Under windows, just install the demo normally and then use the Windows installer for Arx Libertatis.
