Useing Bit Torrent to install....?

[Soren Sapphire]

Hi I have bit torrent, but well I am new to owning a MAC, and I have the correct one so I know thats not a problem, now I went to download the game through bittorrent, but I never used it before, so it said it completed downloading but nothing is there, what do I do... I don't really get how to look for things on a MAC (everything is so different from a PC, still trying to adjust) I don't even know if it downloaded correctly, there are two icons in the download section but one was just the bit torrent file, and the other opens in stuffix and well doesn't really open!?

You need a bit torrent client and you use the torrent file with the client to download it.

Well now I am lost... I don't usually download this stuff I am usually a console gamer not a Computer gamer so clients and such confuse me, whats the difference between the bit torrent and the client, can someone just send me a direct link to what I need to download!?

If torrents are confusing you too much, download the game from a direct mirror. It's a much easier process:

The "torrent" file is only a list of files and trackers (servers) which know where you can download piece by piece of the file. The trackers keep track of all members of the sharing network, who have the same file or are about to download it.

A "BitTorrent client" is an application which knows how to connect to several trackers and how to manage the downloading of several pieces of the file from several locations. This way you can often download with a high bitrate, and not only one single server has to upload the file and pay costs for the bandwidth.
