I'm a bit surprised no one has stickied this link:

(Copy and paste the entire above link into your browser, because GOG's forum does not handle the link correctly).
If you haven’t done so, install your original game and remember the target installation directory as you need some game files later
Browse to the iortcw project release folder https://github.com/iortcw/iortcw/releases and grap the latest release files for your operating system. At the point of writing the latest version was v1.51b.
Also grap the latest patch file from this site: This was this file as per now patch-data-141.zip
Extract the latest release zip into a location where you like to have your installation going forward (like c:\Games\ioRTCW\ in Windows or /home/joe/Games/ioRTCW/ in Linux
Go to the location of your existing original installation, go into the “Main” folder and copy the following files over to your ioRTCW “main” folder: pak0.pk3, sp_pak1.pk3 sp_pak2.pk3 sp_pak3.pk3. This is the game date for the single player mod.
Then extract the content of patch-data-141.zip (or a newer version in the meantime) into your iortcw folder and merge its content into it
And that should be it actually: Go to your iortcw installation folder and start either the “iowolfsp*” file for single player or “iowolfmp*” for multiplayer.
