How to Download and Install Molten-WoW (WOTLK) on a Mac

This is a guide to downloading and installing the Molten-WoW client on a Mac, with instructions specifically for Wrath of the Lich King (WOTLK) server.

1.) Sign up for an account on their website: https://www.molten-wow.com/ 

Your account information here will be your login credentials on WoW. 

2.) Download the WoW client. You're going to download a separate copy of WoW that will remain discrete from the World of Warcraft you may already have on your computer. The file is about 16.5 gigs, so plan accordingly.

a) To download this large file, you'll need a torrent.

(I used this one and liked it: http://www.utorrent.com/returning-visitor).

 b.) To download the WoW files, go here: http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/6163279/

Click the green link GET THIS TORRENT right below the first "Download" button.

Once you open that link, this window should pop up:

Go ahead and use your torrent application to download the WoW file. If you have you torrent application up (like µtorrent) you should be able to easily download the file.

This file will download to your Download folder (or desktop, where ever you have files download to) in a folder called “World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (no install)”

3.) Meanwhile, you need to download a Mac-specific Application Button to boot WoW. (This is a quick download)

This second download can be found here: http://www.4shared.com/zip/bKpqboTp/App_Files.html 

You'll need to make an account here. That's what unused e-mail addresses are for. Download this file.

4.) Once the App Files unzips, you'll see two files in the App Files folders (from step 3).

Drag the WOTLK contents (one file - the WoW logo) into the WoW folder that you already downloaded (from step 2).

5.) Your finished product should be the WoW folder (World of Warcraft 3.3.5a (no install)), which has some .dll files, .exe files, .URL files, and some folders (as seen in step 4). It will also have the World of Warcraft icon you dragged in there from the second download (make sure you added the WOTLK one! The Cataclysm version is labeled World of Wacraft2).

To play, double click on the WoW icon like you usually would.

Sign in using your Molten-WoW account information.

 And remember! Even though these are PVP servers, that doesn’t mean you should grief low-level toons who are just trying to level up! Be kind and courteous to all players! Enjoy!
