This is the installer for Torchlight version 1.12. If this is your first time playing Torchlight, please enjoy the two hour demo mode provided. If you have already purchased Torchlight from http://www.torchlightgame.com, your product key will unlock this install into the full game.

PLEASE NOTE: This installer only works with keys purchased from www.torchlightgame.com. If you have purchased Torchlight from another provider, you will need to contact them for any updates.

UPGRADING FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS

IMPORTANT: This if a FULL REINSTALL. The packaged files for this version changed entirely to improve loading times, so a full reinstall is necessary.
If you are upgrading, you will need to uninstall your previous version.

You will be prompted to re-enter your key when you launch this version in order to unlock it; if you have already activated your key on a previous version of the game, we have reset the count of used activations to compensate for this, so please re-enter your key.

BACK UP YOUR SAVE GAMES! Your uninstaller may ask you if you want to delete your save games. Make sure that it is UN CHECKED!
If you want to be extra safe, you can manually back up your saves - I'd recommend this. Better safe than sorry! To manually back up your saves, please follow the steps below:

- Open your "Start Menu" and click "Run"
- Type in %appdata% and click "OK"
- In the folder that opens up, browse to Runic Games\Torchlight\Save and copy all of the files in that directory into a backup folder on your computer
