The install file only contains the patching software. When installed, the patcher will automatically download the most recent game files. On some systems it can take up to a couple minutes for the patcher window to appear while it is updating.

After install the client will automatically adjust to optimal graphic settings for your system configuration. Upon launch it will also attempt to import macros from the 2D Client if available.
