Just use one of the newer full installers, this is an old version. http://aurora2.pentarch.org/index.php/topic,5663.0.html

The download for this has been moved to Dropbox and the original post updated.

Btw, don't forget to keep complete repository somewhere, since dropbox can remove your files after a long period of inactivity, and I seen some people who got comfy with such features, forget to backup and get burned. ( i recently had a similar experience only with notepad++ and lost all my work)

When I run the game and click on system maps I keep getting this
"Run time error '339'
Component 'COMCTL32. OCX' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid"

 What do i do?

uhm... I don't know what you did, but the game SM mode has nothing todo with forum, and its password is almost certainly blank.

Also if you had issues with install process, you might want to use the instruction here, they are similar but a little bit more detailed.

oh no im sorry i ment i got a bit further, so i installed the game and stuff and its sorta working but not really because you see i click on the aurora icon and it asks me how i want to start my new game.  so i choose all the settings then i notice a blank spot with SM password, so i write down the password i am using for this account and click save.  it gives me another tab popping up with only asking me the SM password obiously meaning the one i entered was wrong, to check for sure i entered my password there again.  and it just said incorrect password, might be caps lock issue i dun know but im assuming not.  so i try to just click on select and it gives me the game but the tab is blank and probably very very bugged. . . . . . . . .  OOOOHHHH i just checked and i need to create a new game.  well il EDIT this comment if i run into another issue (yes i just figured out i can do that too) but thanks alot anyways.
i hate it when you ask a quesyion and figure it out urself seconds after you asked the question :D (btw so i clicked on create new and its asking me to CREATE a password to keep my game save so yeah)

And SM password really is not necessary unless you are running a moderated game. Most of us do with a blank.

No, I assume that it ask you for the current password (blank) since you are trying to set a new one...

Anyway, like Erik said you don't need a SM password. You can find an explanation about most of the user elements including SM password here. Also you might want to try to follow the Quickstart for Beginners

I think that there was some mistake with installer - i've downloaded from first post in that topic and got something like 0. 1.  Than downloaded and installed portable version.  Very(!) big difference in creating new game screen. 

Can someone who know more about the game check what is currently in zip file and/or leave some information for other new users please? :)
