So, you want to download the Cataclysm data but don't want or haven't gotten a preorder from Blizzard? Simply go into your WTF folder, open the Config.WTF in a text editor, and change
toCode:SET accounttype "LK"
Note that changing that in the Launcher.WTF is not necessary. In fact, doing so ONLY in that file will cause it to revert back to LK. Once you have made the change, fire up the launcher and grab the (thus far) 700mb download.Code:SET accounttype "CT"
Enjoy!
