If you do not have a working connection to the GitHub server, you must use the [Standalone/Touchup Installer](/standalone), the offline installer script, which requires downloading the game files to the game folder separately. They are avaialable [here](https://github.com/mintalien/The-Puppets-2-Definitive-Edition/releases/tag/v12).
# Installation:
- 🐧 Linux/Steam Deck users should follow these steps in conjunction with the Linux-specific setup steps.
1. Download your chosen installer from the "Assets" section of the latest release.

3. Run the installer .exe using an administrator user account.
- When opening you may be prompted that "Windows protected your PC" due to the installer not having a paid signature. To proceed, click the "More details" link and then "Run Anyway."
- If antivirus interferes further for some reason, try temporarily disabling it to launch the installer and/or make an exception for your game folder.
1. Follow the prompts in the installer to proceed, then select the location your "The Sims 2 Starter Pack" folder & choose desired components.
- The default location of "The Sims 2 Starter Pack" folder in Program Files (x86) is recommended.
- ONLY on modern AMD graphics card generations such as RX 400 (Polaris) series and later, it's recommended to enable the DXVK component to resolve bugs such as an extremely long launch wait time and loading screen.
1. During the installation process, you must set up Graphics Rules Maker and Sims2RPCSettings to optimize the game correctly for your system. When the installer gets to Graphics Rules Maker, continue to Part 2: Graphics Setup to fix the game’s graphics configuration for your system.

{: .note }
If your Web Installer installation is incomplete due to a download error or missing packs, either run the installer again with a better Internet connection or download & extract the missing packs from [here](https://github.com/mintalien/The-Puppets-2-Definitive-Edition/releases/v12). In situations without a stable connection to GitHub or continued download errors, it may be better to use the standalone download+[Standalone/Touchup Installer](/standalone) instead.
