When you run the installer, uncheck the boxes for updating directx or c++ or whatever. That's what is failing to download.

I don't care about DNA stuff, and to be honest there is a lot of weird race science wrapped up in people's obsession with DNA. Nor can DNA actually tell you how someone looked in real life; it is simply one of the many factors that go into someone's complexion and skin tone.

I gotta say though, there is something a bit uncomfortable about asserting that Egypt is being "secretive" with their cultural honoured and revered dead, when the history of "Egyptology" is the pillage and plunder of Egyptian history at the hands of white scientists seeking to build their own civilizational narrative.

No one owes western science unfettered access to their history or the right to assert western science as some objective truth-building endeavour.

It's probably because in real life Ramesses II had red hair, and a lot of white people seem to have a hard time imagining someone with natural red hair having dark skin and eyes, even though that was sort of a big deal for Egyptians at the time.

That being said, fair skin and light coloured eyes are not an entirely uncommon trait for the area (North Africa and West Asia, Egypt's sphere of influence at the time). Not likely they were traits possessed by Ramesses, though a very questionable race science examination tried to assert he was a fair-skinned man of Amazigh (Berber) descent in the 70s, which is probably where they drew this idea of him from. Though they nailed his big beautiful nose.

Edit: On further inspection it sort of looks like they just made a beefier blue-eyed version of Yul Brynner from the Ten Commandments
