Installing

  1. Insert the CD into the CD rom drive and wait while the installation setup window loads
  2. Select "install" from the left-hand menu and then click "install" in the lower right-hand corner
  3. A window will appear asking if you want help with the installation. Click "No" - you won't need it

If the setup window does not appear,

  1. Double-click on My Computer, select your CD-ROM drive, and double-click "Setup.Now.exe"
  2. Follow the above instructions to install WA

Patching and Updating

The Sold Out Software version does not need patching. The Sold Out installation setup may invite you, however, to install the update before you run the game. You will not need this update to run the game but you will need it to play on WormNET. Click "Okay" on the window that appears to install the update from the CD.

Sold Out will not be aware of further updates that are being released. To update to the latest version, click here to download the update installer wizard. Run the wizard.

Running WA

OPTIONAL: To skip the introduction screens,

  1. Right-click your WA shortcut and select "Properties"
  2. Select the "Shortcut" tab
  3. In the "Target" textbox, add /nointro at the end, outside of the quotation marks, eg:
"C:\Worms Armageddon\WA.exe" /nointro

Run WA by double-clicking the shortcut.
