Mine finally extracted fine but when I installed it the shortcut pointed to citiesxl.exe, which there is none.

    I am downloading now, they are HUGE files, gonna take many hours because its coming in slow. Anyhow, the filenames are in english even though i downloaded from a french site. Maybe someone who has finished downloading the beta and has it installed can answer this? Perhaps only part of it is translated to english like the menus but not the rest of the content? I dunno i haven't installed yet.

    The links are only French and German, BUT, I clicked on link to download the peer-to-peer and everything is in English and the file is downloading - 75% now.

    Firewall, it should have prompted you for access.  The built in Windows 7 firewall asked me for access.

    How did you know the speed? The downloader is just the Cities XL logo with a status bar. One that, for me at least, likes the number zero too much.

    Got mine through a special downloader that they had there AND it was English. For unpacking into the computer-less than an hour. 45 mins. abts. well, that was for me, though.

    I saved my key just in case but after the game is installed do you need it again in order to activate it? I can't do anything till I get home from work.
