Greetings.

Files needed for the workaround, copy paste them from your WoW folder....or just keep on reading and follow the instructions.

Asome of you might be playing retail, whilst some might not, we've managed to figure out a way to trick the battle.net client into changing the installation / update folder to something else without copying large ammounts of data. This is obviously a main interest for those of you who don't need to keep a client for retail, however if you consider remaking the client the battle.net client will automatically start downloading the missing files / patches automatically (it can be stopped by tweaking around the preferences or simply stopping the update once you login the first time) S

teps: 1) Copy all the files from your WoW client (except the Data folder which is created automatically once you add the path)
2) In your Battle.net client navigate to Option > Game Settings > Gme install/Updates.
3) Hit the browse button next to your World of Warcraft installation directory and change it to the new folder in which you've moved the previously mentioned files.
4) Follow the steps from the original connection guide, skipping the copy-pasting part.
5) Don't forget to rename your previous Battle.net WoW to Epsilon as mentioned in the connection guide!!!!!!!!!!
 
 
Enjoy! 
 
Your friendly nerd in the neighborhood.

EDIT: Idk if I should have posted this here, or if Aza / Toothless posted it already, since I'm not familiar to the forum sections and such. If it's duplicated pls remove. ty.
