Windows Download question

[coldcart]

Hey everypony, I have a question reguarding the current downloader and files sizes. it says that its a 14 something download but i think its downloaded way more than that. most of the file sizes of its "packages" are in excess of 430 plus MB. i've only seen 2 so far that were less. is the a list of the pakage sizes so I know what to expect from the rest of the download process?

Thanks!  Looking foward to playing this.

Oh yeah! That needs an update. On Windows, there are 53 packages total nowadays (of varying sizes, the latter ones are usually much smaller) for a total download of 17873338880 bits. :P

Note that the packages will be downloaded to your system's default download folder first, before being unpacked to the actual installation directory. So for a short time, you'll need twice that hard drive space.

To be exact, it does not need twice the 17GB of space, because each package is deleted after it is unzipped. Thus you only need 17GB plus ~ 500MB @Renard ;-)
