If you obtained data from a torrent file, make sure you're not seeding the data before proceeding as well.
Lastly, for demonstrative purposes, this guide uses SpiceTools, you should consult appropriate documentation and requirements of your desired tools as the setup process is likely to be extremely similar.
Getting Started
!!! tip ""
Before we even touch the game, let's fiddle with our audio settings to minimize any potential audio issues on startup. In Windows, go to Playback Devices and then right click on your default device and go to Properties. From there, hit the Advanced tab and set your Default Format to 44100 Hz and check both of the options inside Exclusive Mode as pictured.
!!! tip ""
Once that's done,, it's time to work on setting up your data.
After downloading your data, the first thing to do is make sure your files aren't set to READ ONLY, make sure to uncheck it from the main folder in the Windows Properties tab if so. Then, put your desired 64-bit tools inside the game's `contents` folder, and to create a `.bat` file. Pictured below is what your folder should look like, feel free to name your `.bat` file whatever you desire, for the sake of convenience we've named ours `gamestart.bat`.
Configuring Your Tools
!!! tip ""
Now that you have your files ready, open up your .bat file in your desired text editor (we're using Notepad++) and edit it with your desired parameters, for the purpose of this guide we will demonstrate both a local network configuration and an online example below with SpiceTools, skip to whichever you're in need of accordingly and please keep in mind you can add whatever additional parameters you desire.
!!! warning "If you're not using SpiceTools:" The overall structure of your .bat file will differ from the guide, namely the initialization of SpiceTools won't be present and potential parameters may differ. As stated above, make sure to check the documentation of your tools to ensure you're using the correct parameters for your needs.
Configuring for a Local Network
!!! tip ""
For our local network configuration example, on a single line in the .bat file we're going to type spice64.exe -ea -w and save the file.
What do these different parameters do?
- `-ea` enables an integrated e-amusement server within SpiceTools.
- `-w` will boot the game in windowed mode which will ease our initial setup and testing later, make sure to remove `-w` to run the game fullscreen once you're done setting up!

Configuring for an Online Network
!!! tip ""
For our online network example we're simply doing the above but with different parameters! On our single line, we're going to type spice64.exe -p XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX -url http://yoururlhere.com/ -w and save the file.
What do these different parameters do?
- `-p` takes your PCBID on your network of choice, simply replace `XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX` with your PCBID.
- `-url` allows you to specify a custom service URL to connect with, simply replace `http://yoururlhere.com/` with your chosen network's URL.
- `-w` will boot the game in windowed mode which will ease our initial setup and testing later, make sure to remove `-w` to run the game fullscreen once you're done setting up!

Final Steps and Setting up the Game
!!! tip ""
The last steps you'll have to do with your chosen tools is simply setting up your desired keybinds! Make sure you setup the Test keybind as it will be critical for setting up the game. Once you've done that, launch your game for the first time by double clicking the .bat you setup and the game should load.
