Going from 4.0.3a back down to 3.3.5?

[Daaltonwow]

I wanted to make my own private server that I can play for free and offline. I was wondering how do I get back down to patch 3.3.5 with this new installer?

I know I need to reinstall but with this new installer it seems different.

What I had to do, is reinstall wow, (when i tryed deleteing .mpq's it just stayed at 4+ and would repair itself, or say its overall corrupted. so heres an installer that will install wow pre the 4.0 launcher. (current install wow from the website starts at 4.0)

Orrrrrrr....
You can use a torrent.
US

Hey guys in order to download the 3.3.5a WoW version you MUST and I mean you MUST have a torrent in order to download the version. I will be giving both enUS (US version) and the enGB (European VERSION)

enUS download (United States version):

Step1 : Download the 3.3.5a WoW version torrent from this link: World of Warcraft - 3.3.5a (12340) - enUS (No Install).torrent

Step2: Click on the "Click here to start download..." button and just hit save, and i prefer to save to desktop. (you can delete that after you start downloading it with the torrent.)

Step3: After that just double click on that Torrent file, and just hit ok at the bottom of the screen you get, it should start download. (I prefer doing this over night and during the day you can just pause the torrent download and turn off your computer, or do it how ever you feel comfortable) you will have to wait 1-2 days till it is done downloading depending on your computer speed.

EU

enGB download (european version):


Step1 : Download the 3.3.5a WoW version torrent from this link: World of Warcraft - 3.3.5a (12340) - enGB (No Install).torrent

If you're downloading the torrent then it's either your computer or your torrent client. I personally use uTorrent.

the installwow.exe will be faster then the torrent due to the size, but the torrent would ensure 3.3.5a
