At least the first image is required (1.png or 1.pg) to enable smallInstaller at fullscreem.
If you use Flash.BG.swf you don't need the image file, but if you don't have Flash installed, it won't display SmallInstaller ...
Do you suggest using SmallInstaller without being full screen?
Maybe if this is useful I can work it out in the script.
Hi
I think it's better than full screen
and thank you very much for your wonderful work:)

KaktoR spoke long ago that works well.
If you refer to this conversion HERE (https://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103117), , you might miss entering the destination of each component.
TRY:
First each game must be compressed separately.
Using "Records.ini" file....
You must fill in hand in each section to which component belongs ...
The [Record#] sections of the "Records.ini" file supports (Manually Add)
Component=
Task=
Language=
Component, Task or Language can enter one or more comma separated.
Example: Component=1 or use Component=1,2
[Record1]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Data1.bin
Output={app}
Disk=1
Component=1
[Record2]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Data2.bin
Output={app}
Disk=1
Component=2
Using the section [ExtractSettings] of "Setup.ini" file....
In the [ExtractSettings] section or compatible parameters are: Comp, Task and Lang
If you use the [ExtractSettings] section you must also tell which component each file belongs to.
[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:1;C omp:1;
ArcFile2=Data2.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk:2;C omp:2;
I did not add that (Component = 1) in Record.ini
I test after :) thx bro

hi
I use only one Data1.bin I do how for the Component ??

Each game must be compressed separately.
So for each game you will have a Data#.bin file.
For 3 games you will have at least 3 Data#.bin files.
IMPORTANT:
Do not rename the Data#.bin files after creation.
They must already be created with the correct name.
Renaming will not work, because the name is attached to the file during creation.
For DiskSpan it is necessary to change name in the bat file.
I manually compress with FreeArc for just one Data on my PC
Hello people...
Any of you would have the CI source code (Before being CIU) ....
I have sent you a PM ;)

hi bro.
I have an idea for {SmallInstaller}!
So can you make it install like in the picture without any pictures or backgrounds,
I think it is the best example for installation,

CIU 3.0.0.0.u6
@KakoR is a bit busy at the moment, and has no time to perform tests on the new version of CIU.
So I decided to share with you the new version of the CIU source code right here.
If no bugs are reported in a while this file will be moved to the main post (For now the file can only be here in this post).
NOTES:
I removed the "FIFA 19 Cas Decryption Tool + Prepressor" tool from the "RazorTools" folder because most anti-viruses detect it as viruses (False Positive).
Those who need this tool just extract the contents of the tool file into the main CIU source code folder.
I will be posting the tool file in a separate attachment.
until now one small problem . when creator mode active there is a slide PROGRESS BAR MODE ACTIVATED can you disable that function ?

@mausschieber I think it will be possible to include gif animation in CIU with this same library that I used in splash.
Not tested, but I believe it works and does not prevent access to the buttons. I will test later.
That's where amazing thanks for you great work on the CIU

@Simorq: DId you update the Setup.exe to latest version?
I ask because the coonversion still use v15.2 of CIU script. Maybe Cesar has worked on it somewhere between v15.2 and u6.
@Simorq thanks for the info. Test this Setup.exe...
If anyone has a "native 4K" monitor please test this setup.exe to see if it is displaying the correct size and also without blurring the installer.
Thanks!
Very good and no problem.:)
Cesar, is it still not possible to make all or at least some elements (buttons, textstage, ...) infront of a video background?
I have some ideas but not able to do it if a video is always in foreground.
Cesar, is it still not possible to make all or at least some elements (buttons, textstage, ...) infront of a video background?
I have some ideas but not able to do it if a video is always in foreground.Using a bitmap mask to determine the area that will be the button is possible to make the locations for the buttons.
I will send you a PM with an example.
Update 6 added.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGELOG CIU 3.0.0.0.u6
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Improved PROGRESSBAR mode to enable varying animation time.
>> The higher the slower value is the animation time. Now supports values from 0 to 10000.
>> For values from 0 - 100 the percentage is fixed (Not animated)
>> For values between 101 and 1000 the animation is faster, but does not change decimal percentage values (xx.0).
>> For values between 1001 and 10000 the animation is slower but changes the percentage decimal values (xx.x).
- Added support for two new images "ProgressBackground2.png" and "ProgressBackground2SI.png" ("...SI.png" is dedicated to SmallInstaller).
>> The ProgressBackground2.png (Same to "...SI.png") image is optional and is always added after ProgressImg.png and ProgressBackGround.png
>> "ProgressImg.png/ProgressBackGround.png" order can be toggled using the SendToBack= key in the [ProgressBar] section in "Setup.ini".
- Fixed the values of the SpaceLeft= and SpaceRight= keys of the [ProgressBar] and [ProgressBarSI] sections to add the actual image size value.
>> You can now get the amount in pixels for SpaceLeft= and SpaceRight= keys by getting the values directly from the editing software
while creating "ProgressImg.png/ProgressImgSI.png" images.
- Fixed to no longer need to crop transparent area of "ProgressImg.png/ProgressImgSI.png" image when using values for SpaceLeft and SpaceRight keys.
>> Now when using SpaceLeft= or SpaceRight= to determine the beginning and end of progress the "ProgressImg.png" and "ProgressBackground.png"
images must have the same dimensions (Same for ProgressImgSI.png and ProgressBackgroundSI.png).
- Fixed classic slide show mode (Not animated) so that only the current image is loaded into memory when switching slides.
>> Previously all images were loaded into memory before the slide show started, and only the current one was displayed.
>> Now only the first image is loaded into memory and when the slide is changed the new image is loaded into a temporary variable
until the new image is displayed and then the old image is removed from memory.
>> When using multiple images, RAM usage was determined by the amount of slide images.
>> For example: if you include 300 images in most cases, the installer would either not run when going to SmallInstaller,
or would display an error when closing, using almost 1.9 GB of RAM for the "Setup.exe" process only.
Now the amount of RAM is around 100 MB depending on the images used in the installer.
- Added new key SlideFade= (Default = 1) to the [BackGround] section to enable an alpha fade to quickly and smoothly transition non-animated slides.
>> This option is enabled by default and if enabled will use the same library as animated slides to make the transition,
but the presentation will be done in the same classic way dividing the amount of image by progress.
- Fixed percent value below "1%" in PROGRESSBAR mode when running on Uninstall page to show "0.x %" and not ".x%".
- Fixed so that the percent label of the unisntall page is displayed at the position defined in the MoveY= key of the [PercentLabel] section.
- Fixed the normal uninstall mode so that the removed file name is updated every 50 milliseconds and not each file as before, reducing the uninstall time.
- Added RollBack mode for when an error occurs or the installation is canceled.
>> After error or cancelled, while removing (RollBack) already installed files the progress bar and percentage decreases to 0.
- Fixed to pause extraction by clicking the cancel button and displaying the message requesting confirmation.
>> Previously while displaying the message, the installation continued until it clicked yes.
- Fixed error switching between SmallInstaller and BigInstaller with a double click during installation.
>> If smallInstaller is smaller than installer, the progress bar image was not displayed correctly
>> Before displays only part of the progressbar when switching mode to SmallInstaller>Installer.
- Fixed to display the cancel message by clicking the "Close" button on the taskbar thumbnail.
>> Before it was closed immediately and the extraction processes kept running.
- Fixed some bugs that prevented the installer from quickly closing and killed the "Setup.exe" process by running for about 10 seconds after canceling.
- Added new [InstallerSettings] section to internal and external "Setup.ini" containing two keys:
* GOGInstaller= >> Supported values "0" and "1", default value = "1"
* UWPInstaller= >> Supported values "0" and "1", default value = "1"
>> You can also include the same section and keys in the "Records.ini" file if it exists, and you do not need to add an external "Setup.ini" just for this setting.
>> With these two keys you can create the same Setup.exe for GOG, Steam or UWP game versions.
>> You only need to configure it in an external "Setup.ini" or "Records.ini" file if it exists
>> The registry entries will be included or not using the function "Check: IsGOGGame" or "Check: IsUWPGame".
- Added two new functions to use to check whether or not to add registry entries depending on the setting applied in the external "Setup.ini" or "Records.ini" file.
* IsGOGGame >> The function returns TRUE if it is not configured or if the key GOGInstaller=1 in external "Setup.ini" or internal "Setup.ini" or "Records.ini" file.
* IsUWPGame >> The function returns TRUE if is configured the [UWPGame] section and not configured or
if the key UWPInstaller=1 in external "Setup.ini" or internal "Setup.ini" or "Records.ini" file.
- Added 3 new keys (optional) in the [Executable#] sections intended for UWP installers double mode (Steam + UWP Installer).
* NameUWP= >> This key is optional, use only when using same Installer for UWP or Steam using the [InstallerSettings] section.
* ParameterUWP= >> Also optional is the key NameUWP=.
* IconUWP= >> Also optional is the key NameUWP=.
- Fixed to no longer need two lines after keys in "Registry.iss" file.
>> Now all lines are read correctly, before the last 2 lines were not processed.
- Fixed to create "Uninstall.exe" even when renaming "Setup.exe" to another name.
- Changed default value of Visible= key in [ExtrasButton] section to "0".
>> Now if you want to display the extra button in autorun, you need to use Visible=1
- Added new key DirectoryEditMouseMove= in the [InterfaceSettings] section to disable changing the SelectDirEdit when moving the mouse.
- Added new key "Text<LNG>=" to [Website#Button] section to add located custom button name.
- Changed the key name of Name= to Text= in [Website#Button] section.
- Changed the key name of TradutorFontSize= to TranslatorFontSize= in [AboutSettings] section.
- Changed the key name of Logo2Opacity= to SmallLogoOpacity= in the [AboutSettings] section.
- Removed the tool "FIFA 19 Decryption Tool + Precompressor" from CIU source code.
>> REASON: Antivirus keeps deleting the file "cdt.exe" (false positive).
>> If you need this tool for a conversion, download the ".7z" file separately and add it to the CIU source code.
- Added new key CompatibilityMode = in the [InterfaceSettings] section to change visible buttons on the language selection page (Without Autorun)
>> This only changes the language selection page in mode without autorun page and support values 0, 1 or 2 and Back/Next in finish page.
>> CompatibilityMode=0 >> Normal CIU mode v3 and show buttons: NextButton to confirm selected language and BackButton (with caption Exit) to exit. Show Cancel/Music buttons only if used this buttons in installer page.
>> CompatibilityMode=1 >> Compatibility to CI v4. Changes the visible buttons in LanguagePage from "BackButton and NextButton" to "CancelButton and NextButton" and suppresses the song playing on that page. (As in the old CI 4.x.x.x)
>> CompatibilityMode=2 >> Compatibility to CI v6. Changes the visible buttons in LanguagePage from "BackButton and NextButton" to "CancelButton and BackButton" and use Exit label in "CancelButton" and suppresses the song playing on that page. (As in the old CI 6.x.x.x)
- Added Width and Height of necessary progressbar image in description label of PROGRESSBAR mode. (Width X Height).
>> These values make it easy to create the progress bar in the exact dimensions required for proper operation.
- Added new key ShowInstallTitle= in the [SmallInstaller] section.
If value is 1 (Default = 0) display the old label "Installing" in bold above the description label.
- Added UNDEFINED LANGUAGE mode, this mode use all languages when not use key Lang= in [InstallOptions] section.
>> If you do not add any languages the installer will check the O.S. language.
>> In this mode all CIU languages are set active and not show language selection.
* if the CIU. supports language of O.S. the installer will run in O.S. language.
* If not supported language of O.S. the installer will be executed in EnglishUS language.
- Changed the PROGRESSBAR mode the installer will always start in english language to make the installer printscreen for forum post is in english language.
- Added new key Sorted= in the [LangBox] section to set order of the languages flags.
>> This key determines whether the order of the languages is sorted alphabetically or in the order that is in the Lang= key.
- Changed default values in this keys ShowResumeTime=, ShowUninstallTime=, ShowFreeSpaceLabel= and ShowCheckAll= to false (Default = 0).
>> If you need this information and labels, just enter the key in your conversion.
- Added new key HideDisabledPlay= in the [AutorunSettings] section to hide disabled play buttons before installation.
>> if the HideDisabledPlay = 1 key the Play buttons will always be enabled after installation even if the executable is not found.
- Added compatibility with old values "PR" and "PRBR" in key Lang= (Some forget to change).
- Added compatibility with old names on splash images (Splash.png, Splash_ <LNG> .png, Splash.gif, Splash_ <LNG> .gif).
>> If the splash images with the new names are not found then the old name images will be used if they exist.
- Added new keys Opacity= and Opacity#= in the [Splash] and [SplashAR] sections.
>>These keys determine the maximum display opacity of splash images (0 to 255).
- Added splash sound to play wave sound while displaying splash image.
>> The audio file must have the same name as the image file with extension ".wav", such as Splash1.png and Splash1.wav.
- Added support for XDelta3 to the [ExtractSettings] section using "Type:DELTA;" and delta file name as destin file name with extension ".diff".
>> If the destin file has the same name as the source file, the source file will be renamed to <FileName>.tmp before applying the delta patch.
>> If the source file is in "{app}" it will be deleted after applying delta.
>> Not tested, but if ISDone supports it, you can also use wildcards "*" as ArcFile3={app}\*.pak;DestDir:{app}\*.pak;Type:DELT A;Disk:1;
>> In the example below the file "Language.bin" contains the file "Texture.pak.diff".
** ArcFile1={src}\Language.bin;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC ;Disk:1;
** ArcFile2={app}\Texture.pak;DestDir:{app}\Texture.p ak;Type:DELTA;Disk:1;
- Missing documentation added to supported functions for use in the "Registry.iss" file in parametter "Check:"
>> These functions are useful for checking whether or not to enter registry entries.
** ComponentsCheck('<Component>') >> Checks component identification number as "1" and supports multiple values separated by comma as ComponentsCheck('1,5')
** TasksCheck('<Task>') >> Checks task identification number as "1" and supports multiple values separated by comma as TasksCheck('1,2,3')
** LanguagesCheck('<LNG>') >> Checks short language name as "ENUK" and supports multiple values separated by comma as LanguagesCheck('EN,ES,DE')
** Language('<Language>') >> Checks long language name as "EnglishUK" and supports multiple values separated by comma as Language('EnglishUK,Spanish,German')
** Language64('<Language>') >> Checks if the system is 64 bit and check long language name as "EnglishUK" and supports multiple values separated by comma as Language('EnglishUK,Spanish,German')
** IsWindowsX64 >> Checks if the system is 64 bit same as native function IsWin64
** IsValid('<LNG>','<Comp>',<Task>','<System>') >> Check short language, component, tasks, system and supports multiple values separated by comma. To system use x86 or x64 if need. If value is empty the return "True"
** IsGOGGame >> Checks whether the installer configuration has been pre-configured as GOG installer (Default = True)
** IsUWPGame >> Checks whether the installer configuration has been pre-configured as UWP installer (Default = True)

Hello everyone,

I don't understand what you need.
The file "CreateNewProject.exe" only copies all necessary files to the folder "CIU V3 - New Project".
The example installer files (The LEGO Movie - Video Game) are compressed in "Resources\Templates\Template.dat" file.
If you want to create your own installer for "CIU V3 - New Project" open the "Template.dat" file with 7zip and change the files.
You can extract and recompress "Template.dat" with 7zip (7z compression) and extension ".dat".

just on the welcome page
It happens here too (Video (https://mega.nz/#!QZIjTajI!Ggefkou5QSWUnavZ11GAxjyMNHgAtLJTRBDSSQM HJww)).
It happens with other languages like chinese, korean, etc.
Unicode character fonts use much more processing.
I don't know if it's always been this way.
In previous versions this happened?
In previous versions this happened?
No :D
I think this has started somewhere on u3 or u4.

No :D
I think this has started somewhere on u3 or u4.
On 15.2 this didn't happen
Before version 3.0 there were a lot less features so it would use less processing.
It had happened since before Video 2.0.3.9 u15.2 (https://mega.nz/#!cdRhVIhK!kWZxWSJM6WHInZJtMjEqLhj_mt0pq_c921zlJrB gKbA)
The default template installer of version 2.0.3.9.u15.2 was lighter so you couldn't notice the freeze. But it had always happened.
The more features the heavier the installer gets.
CIU 3.0.0.0.u6 HOTFIX
I saw error reports while closing the installer.
Try using this hotfix to see if it keeps giving error.

Thanks for reporting this.

CREATORS MODE REQUIRED:
In creator mode Setup.exe should be together with the "Setup" folder with the design files.
It must also contain the "Resources\Languages" folder for the flags used to display correctly.
Do not move Setup.exe from the souce code folder in creator mode.
The Setup.ini file cannot contain any characters like Tab char in its keys and cannot contain "//" after the key value.
I always got confused with [SetupTitle] and [Title]. Everytime I have to figure out what is the text stage heading (Welcome, Select Destination Location, ...).
Could you rename it to something more precise? Something like [TextStageTitle].

Could you rename it to something more precise? Something like [TextStageTitle].
It would be possible, but it would be more confusing in the script by changing this.
Currently in the script, as variables that refer to a title are: WelcomePageTitle, SystemPageTitle, etc;
In addition to [SetupTitle], [SetupTitleAR], [Title] also has [BigTitle].
An option would be changed to [PageTitle] and [PageBigTitle]
Would it be good for you?
[PageTitle] and [PageBigTitle]
This is perfect! ;)

is this a bug that the installtime is not shown after setup is finished
If you want to display the time at the end of the installation, you now need to enable the option in "Setup.ini" after u6.
It's info in changelog:
- Changed default values in this keys ShowResumeTime=, ShowUninstallTime=, ShowFreeSpaceLabel= and ShowCheckAll= to false (Default = 0).
>> If you need this information and labels, just enter the key in your conversion.
- Changed default value of Visible= key in [ExtrasButton] section to "0".
>> Now if you want to display the extra button in autorun, you need to use Visible=1

You need to use shapes in Photoshop. The borders are made using Layer Styles. There is a lot of tutoriais on Youtube about these tools.
I think Cesar should have the .psd file from this project. Maybe he can share with you. :D

Here's the full autorun PSD, maybe it's useful for you ...
I have no practice in photoshop so may have some unnecessary layers.
Perhaps the same effect will be achieved with fewer layers and effects.
Hi guys,
nope, I can't make the DiskSpan work. I've tried everything. With/without records.ini. Nothing. The installer throws at me the same error. When I pack it with UltraArc, everything is OK.
Any solutions? :confused:
What tools for compression did you use that give you this error?

Try removing the Setup.vsf file from the project.
Sometimes VCLStyles displays errors when extracting.
@Kaktor,
The Diskspan bundled with UltraArc from Razor. But I also tried your version. Same issue.
BTW, XTool + Srep + LZMA
@Cesar,
I'll try that. Will report back.

@Cesar,
Unfortunately it's not that. Same error. :(

Did you check the COMPRESSOR.ini?
Fabioddq
03-12-2019, 11:00
Seems to be ok, if works with UltraArc...
Try #Define LOLZ instead #Define SevenZip (Don't know if will make any difference...)
VCLStyles usually fails with DiskSpan, if i remember.
Here is the script. Please find some time and test it. :(
Your problem is Records.ini
[Record2]
Type=Freearc_Original
Source={src}\Data.Bin.002
Output={app}
Disk=2
Remove this Record2 and it will work.
If you use DiskSpan you just need to add first part of an archive (no matter how many splitted following parts this archive has).
DiskSpan batch files will make a Records.ini automatically, therefore you don't need to do anything on this file. Only exception is if you create more then 1 diskspan archive. In this case you have to add all first parts to Records.ini
@KaktoR,
My Goodness ! :eek: That was the problem ! It unpacks now without errors ! My eyes are red of reading the whole night reaching for the solution. It was pure madness. Thanks man ! :D

There is no such option in CIU ...
Maybe when I redo the Tasks page I can include (MAYBE).
But only in version 3.0.0.1...

Hmm, I'm about to ditch this Installer. It's not user friendly. :o I'm having problems with cleaning registry entries and now this...
When I choose the option to delete the Game Save folder which is in localappdata\TSCGame, it slaps me with this error. But when I choose to
not to delete this folder, the uninstalling process goes without any problem. Da heck is going on ? :confused:
Oops, sorry for the huge images. :o
Edit: uploaded smaller images now.
*bump
is this line causing the issue ? Sorry guys.
*bump
is this line causing the issue ? Sorry guys.
The error is in this line...
Is missing zero digit in value. Sorry!
StringChangeEx(Result, '{sendto}', ExpandConstant('{{#VER > 0x506000 ? "user" : ""}sendto}'), True); {>5.60}
Change value to:
StringChangeEx(Result, '{sendto}', ExpandConstant('{{#VER > 0x5060000 ? "user" : ""}sendto}'), True); {>5.60}
It will be fixed in the next version.
Thanks for the quick response ! So that one zero was causing me headaches
these couple of days !? :mad: ;)
Thanks mate !
Cheers.

hey guys i was just wondering, where do you all find your templates for your installers? i google them but i cant find any good templates to use for backgrounds.. if anyone can help please reply to my post, i want to make some cool installers with CIU but cant seem to find anything good to use..
also what software do you all use to create your templates eg the backgrounds for your custom installers? I use paint shop pro 2020, photoshop and photoshop elements along with graphic studio but wanted to know you alls opinions.. also if someone could point me to a tutorial on making these things it would be most appreciated. :)
Photoshop + Google = Profit

I'm using CorelDraw + Google :)
Btw, any fix for registry entries ? Solve that and we're good to go ! :D

What registry entries?
Well, the installer doesn't delete the registry keys during uninstall. They remain in the registry. Only I can do now is delete them manually. :confused:

CIU does not work with these reg keys using ISPP.
Test with this changed log file.
Currently the Subkey value does not work with functions like {code: getpath}
I'll fix this later.
Try writing the entire line of the registry key in text when possible.

Most of the time, my design is inspired from the game itself (Main menus, windows, inventary, etc).
Sometimes i cut buttons direct from the game, sometimes i just try reproduce the design looking the menus from the game and sometimes i create my own.
I also use Photoshop (CC 2020) and Google (Images, renders, music, etc);
HyperSnap 8 to take the screenshots from the game (menus etc...);
Most of the time, i try to take the original sound buttons, so i just put the music vol in 0 and record a video with Geforce Experience or Windows GameBar.
After that, i cut the sound buttons using Camtasia Studio, separating audio from video.
I upgraded my Inno Setup Repack (https://mega.nz/#F!EJ4gjSyQ!s5auXl8nKFOZmw_ylkO0cw) to v6.03 (The link contain Lite e Full version).
To install skins packs extract SkinPack.rar from the same Inno Setup Repack FULL installer directory.
Hi ppl,
is there a constant for Users\Username\Saved Games ? I want to delete a folder in Saved Games but to no avail. I can't find that constant on the net.
I tried:
{Userprofile}\Saved Games
{%Userprofile%}\Saved Games
%Userprofile%\Saved Games
{Username}\Saved Games
Edit: The only way is writing down the full path in Setup.ini which is SaveGameFolder3=C:\Users\*****\Saved Games\
Not a very happy solution. I can't believe that the Inno Setup developer didn't include such constant.

There is no native constant in Inno Setup for the "Saved Games" folder.
You can use something like this:
function UpdateConstant(const S: String): String;
var
strDocs: String;
strSaves: String;
begin
Result := ExpandConstantEx(S, 'savedgames', ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games'));
if (GetWindowsVersion shr 24 >= 6) and (Result = ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games')) then
begin
RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explore r\FolderDescriptions\{F42EE2D3-909F-4907-8871-4C22FC0BF756}', 'RelativePath', strDocs);
RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explore r\FolderDescriptions\{4C5C32FF-BB9D-43b0-B5B4-2D72E54EAAA4}', 'RelativePath', strSaves);
StringChangeEx(Result, '\' + strDocs + '\My Games', '\' + strSaves, True);
end;
end;
This function also expands the other constants normally:
>> MsgBox(UpdateConstant('{userdocs}'), mbInformation, MB_OK); {expands normally}
>> MsgBox(UpdateConstant('{savedgames}'), mbInformation, MB_OK);
Remembering that CIU already has an UpdateConstant function.
If it is to be used in the CIU script, change the function name such as UpdateConstant2.
Thanks, but where should I "squeeze" these lines in the script coz the compiler gives me an error... UpdateConstant is duplicate. :o

Change the name of the function and call the function using the new name.
Where do you want to use this constant savegames?
In which part of the script?

Man, you're confusing me. I'm not a inno-script pro ! :p ;)
Well, during the uninstalling process. I want a folder, created by the game, vanish from Saved Games folder. Btw, I'm using Win7 and the path is:
C:\Users\My Name\Saved Games\Metro Exodus
Sorry I know, I'm a pain in da ass. I suffer from perfectionism OCD, btw. It's nasty :o
Edit: I sorted it out in Setup.ini --> SaveGameFolder3=C:\Users\{username}\Saved Games\Metro Exodus ...aaaand the folder is gonsky ! I'm happy with it. Well, the only problem is
where Metro Exodus dumps this save game folder in Win10.
@Cesar m8, your priority is to fix the registry issue ! :D
Btw, Metro Exodus creats 3 folders and 2 registry entries during the first launch:
1. My Documents --> 4A Games
2. Users\Username\Appdata\Roaming --> CPY_Saves (ermmm...cough)
3. Users\Username\Saved Games --> Metro Exodus
Registry:
1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\4A-Games
2. HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1998757662-2675839664-690416582-1000\Software\4A-Games

The registry entries for work well for me.
To remove the save folder inside the Saved Games folder using the key SaveGameFolder#= use {sd} to set a system drive:
SaveGameFolder3={sd}\Users\{username}\Saved Games\Metro Exodus
I will include a constant {savedgames} in the next CIU update.
If you want to change it in the current CIU script the text in red color.
function GetSavedGameFolder: String;
begin
Result := ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games');
RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explore r\Shell Folders', '{4C5C32FF-BB9D-43B0-B5B4-2D72E54EAAA4}', Result);
end;
function UpdateConstant(Current: String) : String;
begin
Result := Current;
if UninstallMode then
StringChangeEx(Result, '{app}', UninstallPath, True)
else
StringChangeEx(Result, '{app}', WizardForm.DirEdit.Text, True);
StringChangeEx(Result, '{savedgames}', GetSavedGameFolder, True);
StringChangeEx(Result, '{win}', ExpandConstant('{win}'), True);
StringChangeEx(Result, '{sys}', ExpandConstant('{sys}'), True);
...///The code goes on...
After code changed, use SaveGameFolder3={savedgames}\Metro Exodus
Great ! That makes things easier. Thanks ! :D
Btw, regarding registry. Yes, it works but as long as the subkey is empty, the uninstaller will delete it. But if it's not empty, it will remain.
Where is the switch in the script to make registry entries uninstall whether they're empty or not ?
Thanks mate for your work !
Will be released soon after some testing. Just letting you know.

if those are just the normal dlc files, then they should be compressed with the game no need to have them specifically in setup.ini. Unless you mean that 'name' .pfx / .cer are for each game owner ...
It's me again ! :p
There is a tiny problem with UI in Win10. Black fonts on black background. Anyone else ?
And one more tiny problem. It's not showing the size in add/remove programs.

Thanks for reporting ...
This different window is probably displayed by DiskSpan, and then stays inside the DLL. Because it is displayed differently I can not explain. Maybe it's because ISDone DLL was created a long time ago with very old software (maybe) and the diskspan DLL is called by it.
As for the size not displayed... I am aware of this.
It would be easy to enter a key for i game size. but if using components this would have to be calculated depending on the component selected. This function will be included in version 3.0.0.1 (Remind me in the future).
I noticed 2 bugs in InstallerScript_3.0.0.0.u6:
1-Progress bar does'nt reach 100%. It's stuck at something like 70% but it doesn't affect installation process.
2-LogoAB2 in About page doesn't show no matter what value you put in Setup.ini.

2-LogoAB2 in About page doesn't show no matter what value you put in Setup.ini.
The image you created from the progress bar should be smaller than necessary.
There are 2 options to fix this.
1) Use the old progressbar mode by setting value 1 on the Stretch keys of both progressbar sections.
2) This is the recommended mode. Use different images for each bar (ProgressImg.png, ProgressBackground.png) and (ProgressImgSI.png, ProgressBackgroundSI.png). For each bar create the image with the exact width of the value that is displayed on the label (xxx x xxx) when running in progressbar mode.
I don't know if this is so, but to display Logo2.png on the about page requires the value of the key SmallLogoOpacity= in [AboutSettings] to be greater than 0... to display 100% opaque use value 255 on this key.
In the CIU 3.0.0.0.u6 [2019.10.30] theme installer is normally displaying the "LogoAB2.png" logo which is in the "Setup\About" folder. (PS: The default logo in theme installer does not mark Yener90 vertically).
If you want you can send me a pm with your project that I check for you.
New version added.
[14.12.2019]

CHANGELOG CIU 3.0.0.0.u7
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Changed the default value of the DirectoryEditMouseMove= key to value 0.
>> Now if you want to display the actual Edit when hovering over it use the value 1 in this key.
- Fixed the correct label alignment position to the CheckAll checkbox that is next to the redist items (SelectDir Page)
- Added a new library to CIU with CIU specific functions called "CIULib.dll".
>> Few functions are currently being used, but in future versions it will be more useful.
- Fixed the correct progressbar's display (I hope for the last time).
>> Now when the progressbar's images do not have the exact widths this image will be resized to the required size using the "CIULib.dll" library.
- Changed (again) the progressbar's SpaceLeft and SpaceRight options.
>> Now the value SpaceLeft and SpaceRight is the start and end offset of the progress displayed in the installer.
>> If the progress bar is smaller or larger the value will not be equivalent by measuring in the image.

I wish you all merry christmas.
New version added.
[14.12.2019]
-Added components for DiskSpan (_DiskSpan.bat)
> Thanks to Cesar82
-Added cls-mpzmt (thanks to 78372)
- Fixed conflicts between all current compressors (Thanks to Simorq for help).
..........
I wish you all merry christmas.
Thankyou KaktoR, Cesar82, 78372, Simorq and to everyone else involved, your work is very much appreciated :)
Merry Christmas to you all, stay safe and all the best for the New Year.
I have a bug report (actually it's not a bug but something that should be implemented in the next version) but I'll wait till the end of holidays. :p ;)
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year folks! :)
DiskSpan.bat fixed re-uploaded in "_Tools.7z" file. (Thanks KaktoR)
The DiskSpan.bat file may result in a few bytes or even smaller megabytes than specified for each disk.
This small error is due to limitation of calculations in the "set /a" function of bat files (maxing-out 32-bit number limitation).
Then the calculation was cut off the last 3 digits to work with large size values.
As long as only games are smaller than 2000 GB the current calculation will work.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Thanks!
DiskSpan.bat partially redone.
The previous version that is in the _Tools.7z file has bugs related to disk size division.
This new version here worked fine.
But if anyone finds bugs, please report it.
Replace the files in both folders:
UltraARC 2900 R7 FULL
UltraARC 2900 R7 PUBLIC
Sorry for the buggy version... I didn't realize it wasn't working properly.
When kaktoR update the _Tools.7z file again I remove this post.
Merry Christmas everyone!
Thanks!
Re-uploaded :)
Hello people.
Please give us some screenshots of your most favourite installers of all time.
We want to add some "preview" to the opening post to give people some ideas of what's possible with CIU, since most of us know, CIU is pretty complex with all its settings to new people (some would call it "overwhelming" :D).
So please share with us a few fancy installers you like, but, if possible, a few more complex installers (something more just like the "standard things enabled") would be nice too.
Merry Christmas to all of you and your fams and friends. Keep the good moods.
There is another bug in _Diskspan.bat.
I will fix this tomorrow
Change
copy /y ".\!SETUPPATH!\!SETUPNAME!" ".\!CONVFOLDR!\!DISKLABEL!!DVDCount!\!SETUPICON!" >nul
to
copy /y ".\!SETUPPATH!\!SETUPICON!" ".\!CONVFOLDR!\!DISKLABEL!!DVDCount!\!SETUPICON!" >nul
One more bug
1. Select "Yes" to use same compression method to all games
2. Use option [18] and type something...
3. You will be on the previous step again (Methods types available)
Only if you select options [0] to [17] all is fine.
Hello people.
Please give us some screenshots of your most favourite installers of all time.
Here are some print screen of conversions that used CI (CI is the old CIU - The beginning of everything)...
There must be some great ones here, but these ones in my opinion were very good (design) by limiting the old versions of CI/CIU.
I will post part II with images of conversions between CIU 1.0.0.0 to 1.0.14 and so on!
I will post the following parts in this same post!
Then you choose the best images this pack in your opinion.
I will check DiskSpan.bat again. Glad you're testing. I didn't see these errors you commented on.
At the end of the bat file put the red line to fix the bug in "Custom Method" [18] to ALL COMP change:
set /p %~1= Method:
exit /b
:PreviousMethod
set "%~1=!previous!"
exit /b
To:
set /p custom= Method:
set "%~1=!custom!"
set "previous=!custom!"
exit /b
:PreviousMethod
set "%~1=!previous!"
exit /b
Are these custom sample methods correct?
It does not work for me. Only the first custom example works here.
echo. xZ1+srep:m3f+4L1
echo. UR+srep:m3f+XZ
If wrong give me examples that work and not on the list of 17.

Use this instead (or make your own :D)
echo. Example: bpk+xCriLayla+srep:m3f+lolz:d128m:mc1023
echo. xZLib+srep:m3f:l512:m512+LZMA-MT
echo. zstdrec+srep:m3f:a16:d1g+XZ
UR is not really usable in diskspan, because you have to seperate the files which are processed by UELR into another archive (the same for AFR, OGGRE, MPZ, maybe MSC too but not sure...). The only way to use it in single archive is the file masking method. Unfortunatelly diskspan doesn't support it, and I don't know if it's possible somehow - theoretically.
Edit: Fixed version uploaded. I have used my example from "Trine Ultimate Collection" for how to use components with Diskspan.
- Fixed copy of icon file to destination folder.
- Fixed to work custom mode correctly.
- Fixed aditional Records.ini path if the "Setup_Files" folder name is changed now will make the copy correctly.
- Changed compression examples in custom mode.
- Disabled the option to display component sum because when component size values do not have same unit (MB, GB) the calculation is done wrong.
- Fixed correct time in log file.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW DISKSPAN.bat TO TEST
The new version is for testing (Extract also the Resource folder contain files).
There may be some bugs yet.
NEWS:
- Added an external calculator for calculating folder sizes in bytes because it is not possible to calculate large numbers (Gb) in native bat functions.
- Added automatic calculation for first disk size, just disabling the first disk size line with "::" or entering one of the values: "0" or "AUTO".
- Added option to automatically move files from Redists or extras you wish to include on disk 1.
To do so just put the files or folders in the "Setup_Files" directory. Everything will be moved except text files in the root directory "Setup_Files".
- Fixed correct time in log file.
- Fixed sum of file sizes of each component after compression in finished page (Only in DiskSpan.bat [2019.12.29].rar).
NOTES:
By my tests the calculation is working well. Making good use of Setup.exe's independent media size is 10 or 200 mb, with no need to change anything.

I don't know where I was with my head....
It was supposed to look like this.
WizardForm.DirEdit.Text := RemoveBackslashUnlessRoot(ExpandConstant(Trim(GetV alStrEx('InstallOptions', 'DefaultInstallDir', '')))) + GetAppName('')
WizardForm.DirEdit.Text := AddBackslash(ExpandConstant(Trim(GetValStrEx('Inst allOptions', 'DefaultInstallDir', '')))) + GetAppName('')

I do not know what exactly it can be.
Maybe it is because some CIU compressors have been updated.
The ISDone library has been updated as well. But the mistake is CRC and I don't think so.
Try copying the ISDone.dll from the "Resources\Decompressors\ISDone" folder of CIU 3.0.0.0.u6 to CIU 3.0.0.0.u7.
Let me know if this procedure works.
Maybe KaktoR or Simorq can answer better on this subject.

Ok guys,
so here is the problem when using external scripts like custom icons, shortcuts and the Registry script. When uninstalling the game,
it does not remove the Program folder in Start Menu and the Registry keys still remain despite the game is uninstalled. If you have time,
please implement this option. Here is the script. Please try it. Thanks. :)
Edit: I managed to delete the program folder in Start Menu -->
[UninstallDelete]
Type: filesandordirs; Name: "{userprograms}\{groupname}"
Edit 2: Nope, it doesn't work always. Weird behavior. @.@
/me embarrassed... :o
Well, the Registry entries "issue" is still there.
*knock...knock...anybody home ? :p
Edit: Ok, I got the Registry "issue" under control. It's not an elegant solution but it works. Till someone finds something better.
#define AppPublisher "SEGA"
{ remove product code registry entrie }
if ProductCode <> '' then
RegDeleteKeyIncludingSubkeys(HKLM, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninsta ll\' + ProductCode);
RegDeleteKeyIncludingSubkeys(HKLM, 'SOFTWARE\{#AppPublisher}');
end;
end;
Eh, now the Start Menu shortcuts... :(

You have greatly altered the original CIU script.
There will be some bugs with these changes.
The About page has stopped working.
You can change the script for your use, but I ask you to keep the About page working and original by displaying the credits of the original CIU contributors and translators.
Answering your question:
CIU does not create an uninstaller as in conventional Inno Setup installers (Unis000.exe, Unis000.dat).
Uninstall.exe from the installation folder is the same Setup.exe file that is copied to the folder and the uninstall functions are all defined in the code section.
Therefore the installer does not remove icons included in the [Icons] section, so you must include them in the code within the CreateShortcuts and DeleteShortcuts functions.
The section is also not supported on CIU as the default uninstallation of Inno Setup is never performed.
You can include the functions of deleting folders or files within the Uninstall function of code.
[U]NOTES:
You have removed almost all languages, this can cause errors.
I would not recommend these changes all in the script the way you did.
You could simply have limited the languages you want to make available in Setup.ini or disabled the lines in the [Files] section and changed only in GetLanguage and also the part in CheckAvaiLanguages where you changed to:
if (TmpStr2 in ['HR', 'ENUK', 'EN']) then
Sorry, I removed all that stuff to make the CIU smaller. Regarding the 'About' page, it wasn't intentionally. I was so ocupied with this icons and registry issues.
The 'About' page will return back again. Sorry again. My intention was not to discredit anyone who worked on this project. Removing unnecessary languages didn't
affect the CIU integrity. It's working without any problems. Looks like you've faced me against the wall. So script with icons won't work in a regular way...hmm.
I'm dropping the subject. :(
keep the About page working and original by displaying the credits of the original CIU contributors and translators.
Yes, we are very adamant about this here at Fileforums, all Credits must be maintained and given at all times. A lot of people have put a lot of their own time into it and do not get paid for their work, the least people can do is give them a little credit. If you remove those credits then these people will lose faith and may stop their work, then everyone misses out on their great contributions.
Credit must always be given or kept in place. ;)
@Cesar,
here is the CIU by default. Nothing removed from the script. No icon and registry script. It still leaves the empty Publisher folder in the Start Menu ! I have
noticed a strange thing, as long as you don't open the Publisher folder, in this case SEGA, the uninstaller will delete it, otherwise it won't. The script has already
all constants in the uninstall part such as {commonprograms} and {userprograms}. So, in other words, I can't do jack sh*t. Heck, someone would say, stop whining.
Delete it manually. But that's not the point, :(

here it works also
i used win 8.1 x64
At least we're getting somewhere. First, the fix isn't working. The good news is that everything is ok in Windows 10 (opened in a virtual machine). So the conclusion is, Windows 7 is a bad guy here. But that doesn't mean I'm moving to Win 10. It's the ugliest OS since Windows Millenium Edition ! :p In other words... @Cesar, fix the darn thing ! ;)
Edit: Thanks for the shortcut tip. If this could be done in Setup.ini it would be even better. :)
Edit 2: Anyone else has the same problem with Windows 7 ?
Edit: Thanks for the shortcut tip. If this could be done in Setup.ini it would be even better. :)
It is a good idea for future versions. But I do not promise that this feature will be added.
I changed it in the script to include your additional icons.
find in script by "CUSTOM ICONS ADD HERE" (without quotes).
You can include other additional icons in this part if you need to.
Windows 7 has a delay deleting internal files in the folder, so it does not remove the directory as it is not empty yet.
I made some changes, and tested on a virtual machine with windows 7 professional. Apparently it is working.
Try with this new script.
It's working ! ...But on a clean Windows 7 (virtual machine)... :( So that means, the culprit is my copy of Windows. Something is interfering with the uninstalling process and that's beyond my knowledge so far. Damn. I made a fool of myself. Sorry Cesar. Thanks for your effort. If you or someone has an idea please post it here.
Hello people...
For the past few days I've been working on CIU 3.0.0.1.b3 (Beta 3).
The script has been changed a lot, possibly many bugs will appear.
The changes were necessary to try to slightly improve the startup time (very little improvement).
The entire button creation and access structure has also been changed to correct the failure and slowness by clicking the same button multiple times.
These changes made it possible to include additional buttons.
Now if you put a few buttons in the installer, you will get better performance. Required buttons are only UniInstallbutton, NextButton, BackButton and SmallBrowse (If you use Smallinstaller, you also need SmallCancel or CloseSI).
Make a comparison between version 3.0.0.0.u7 and 3.0.0.1.b3.
Button click response time is much faster in this version 3.0.0.1.b3.
In a few days I'll be sharing CIU 3.0.0.1 beta 3 in the CIU Dev group.
New DiskSpan.bat file with some fixes.
When the component name has special characters like: (^ & () <> |
Use the "^" character before the special character as an example "Kane ^& Lynch Dead Men".
Enjoy!
Guys, do you have this on your mind ? Windows 10 and black fonts on a black background ?
Edit: Found the culprit. It's Setup.vsf and disabling it, makes the window clear. But it's ugly then. Maybe some other theme/skin
will do the busines.
Edit 2: Ok, I fixed it by replacing Setup.vsf with Concave.cjstyles (now Setup.cjstyles).
Can anyone explain to me the LangBox.
Seems like left and top doesn't matter and it automatically aligns itself based on the alignment, also what's with this BoxLayout. What decides the flags by line thing
What's the difference between normal button and a small button
Can anyone explain to me the LangBox.
Seems like left and top doesn't matter and it automatically aligns itself based on the alignment, also what's with this BoxLayout. What decides the flags by line thing
I didn't understand your question!
What are the keys in the [LangBox] section?
the keys FlagByLine, FlagBoxAlignment, FlagBoxWidth works only with box mode (Position=BOX).
FlagBoxAlignment >> Align the flags to the side informed when each row has different numbers of flags.
What's the difference between normal button and a small button
SmallButton refers to the group of small buttons and Button refers to the group of larger buttons.
The images for SmallButton and Button are used only if no specific image is used for each button such as Next, Back, SmallBrowse, etc.
SmallButton is just a smaller or different design for Smallbuttons and is used in SmallBrowse, SmallCancel and SmallMusic (These last 2 are shown in the smallinstaller).
The normal button is used on the Next, Back, Cancel and Music buttons.
The setup.ini [SmallButton] section refers to the group of small buttons (SmallCancel, SmallMusic and SmallBrowse). for normal buttons the corresponding section is [StandardButton]
I am sharing CIU v3.0.0.1.b4 here so that more users can test and report the bugs found.
In this version there is a slight performance gain when the conversion is simpler.
There are still some things to add and some problems with media reproduction are still to be solved.
After that I will be able to share a final version 3.0.0.1 leaving behind version 3.0.0.0.u#.
Thanks to KaktoR for the opportunity to allow me to develop CIU.
Several features have been included during this past year, but whenever possible I try to maintain compatibility with the previous features that Yener90 created, trying to maintain the roots of CIU...
Thank you all, and be sure to report errors that are found.

Hi, I'm a newbie, is there a way to change the interface skin of the installer in CIU script and set the default one used in plain Inno Setup?
Hi, I'm a newbie, is there a way to change the interface skin of the installer in CIU script and set the default one used in plain Inno Setup?
CIU is very flexible in creating the interface.
You create your design images in some image editing software such as PHOTOSHOP (Shareware software) or GIMP (Freeware software) or other image editing software.
Once created, the images must be saved with the names and formats supported by CIU for each image you wish to include.
After saving the images you configure the interface dimensions and position and dimensions of the components such as buttons, TextBG (Text area), etc. by editing the Setup.ini file.
Inside the "Help" folder contains a "_Setup.ini" file with all the configuration options for the graphics supported by CIU.
The names of the images for each button or other CIU objects can also be found in the first line below each section of the "_Setup.ini" in the Help folder.

Thank you for answering, but what I was asking is if there is some already made Setup.ini (and other assets) that allows you to recreate the standard installation wizard interface of Inno Setup, since I am not practical with Photoshop e GUI design
@pincoball
Do you want an interface similar to the standard interface of standard inno setup installers?
If this is it, then I don't think so. Only if someone creates and shares the design for you.
CIU's goal is to create installer for games with custom interface (CIU = "CUSTOM INSTALLER" ULTIMATE).
For standard interface like Inno Setup you can use a standard Inno Setup installer.

Hoping I'm not going OT, I was wondering then if there is a way to use the .arc files created with UltraARC and integrate them in a IS installer since I couldn't find anything in the forum.
I would be grateful if someone could link me something else for what I am looking for

The ASIS (https://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=99481) Installer by KaktoR is very similar to the standard installer of Inno Setup and has the same compressor features used in CIU.
With it you can use ultraArc and DiskSpan in the same way used in CIU

Hi, I was editing Fabioddq's Jedi Fallen Order Installer without a smaller installer and background, also added the license page, everything works fine except the Desktop shortcut is not creating.
Fabioddq created the installer on CIU 3.0.0.0u6
I'm using CIU 3.0.0.0u7
Setup.ini
https://www65.zippyshare.com/v/DkZp3NQJ/file.html
Please Help!
@Bondpotter
Shortcuts are only created if the target executable exists.
If you do not compress the game files (REAL installation) the shortcut is not created.
In this game it is necessary to have the file starwarsjedifallenorder.exe in the folder "{app}\SwGame\ Binaries\Win64"
When finishing the installation so that the shortcut is created.
Bondpotter
29-03-2020, 21:59
@Cesar82 Well, It exists. I tried many times I don't know why it is not creating the shortcut, also It's creating the shortcut with the Original Installer (CIU 3.0.0.0 u6) by Fabioddq with the same compressed file.
I changed Exe64Path= to ExePath64=
It worked.

CHANGELOG CIU 3.0.0.0.u8
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Fixed language selector for correct display of the flags when clicking on the Right/Up arrow (Now it has the same effect as the other arrow).
- Fixed bug in language selector (BOX mode) when calculating the number of flags per line when the FlagByLine key is not informed.
- Fixed bug in the IsUWPGame and IsGOGGame functions when there is "Records.ini" next to "Setup.exe" file.
- Fixed the creation and removal of shortcuts for UWP games.
- Fixed the correct path "{tmp}" for temporary files (within "Setup.exe" file) when the destination folder is not informed during compression.
- Fixed to properly display all the slides of images when using components and do not set the keys FirstBGImage= of each component.
- Fixed the "LabelCurrFileName" label to display the correct path of the file being extracted when using the components.
- Fixed a bug that appeared in the previous update that did not access the links when clicking on the linked labels on the About page.
- Fixed to display the correct installation path in DirEdit when the DefaultInstallDir= key is configured.
- Updated compressor/decompressor "RAZOR" from v1.03.7 (standard) to v1.03.7 (stdio patched from https://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103298).
- Added support for "PMT - Parallel Multithreaded Encoder/Decoder" for "RAZOR" compressor.
>> PMT is a 4x4 like algorithm to make everything run parallelly.
>> You can run any compressor/encoder that supports stdio/stdin/stdout or even nothing.
>> The program can make a single threaded compressor multithreaded by using blocks, just like 4x4.
>> For more information visit: https://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103230
[29.03.2020]
-Added PMT (thanks to 78372)
> For now only razor is supported
-Added Inno Setup 6.0.4 Repack
-Updated Notepad++ to v7.8.5
-Removed PNGtoBMPConverter
I changed Exe64Path= to ExePath64=
I didn't remember this change to the key Exe64Path = to ExePath64 =
Anyhow, is it possible to make a checkbox in the "Select Destination Location" Page for Create Desktop Icon?
This functionality is already present in version 3.0.0.1 of CIU.
In a few days I will share a new beta version of CIU 3.0.0.1 and possibly have a final version after the next beta.

I don't know if this is your question...
The CIU has not changed these features in this u8.
Bitmap masks like Autorun.bmp, SmallInstaller.bmp, Installer.bmp, etc. are optional.
If you don't put them in, the installer will create them on initialization.
You really need to place them if you want to define a click area (Drag Installer) different from the non-transparent area of the equivalent PNG image.

I have already discovered the error.
The components are not being checked correctly using the [ExtractSettings] section.
Open the script u8 and go to line 9168 and you will find this line:
if (Data[i].Arc[0] <> '') and (Data[i].Arc[1] <> '') and ComponentsCheck(Data[i].Arc[7]) and TasksCheck(Data[i].Arc[5]) and LanguagesCheck(Data[i].Arc[6]) then
Only replace the value in blue with the value in red (Replace 7 with 4).
if (Data[i].Arc[0] <> '') and (Data[i].Arc[1] <> '') and ComponentsCheck(Data[i].Arc[4]) and TasksCheck(Data[i].Arc[5]) and LanguagesCheck(Data[i].Arc[6]) then
Thank you for reporting the error.
I added the hotfix to first post and new tools archive.
I am sharing CIU v3.0.0.1.b5 :eek: here so that more users can test and report the bugs found.
In this version there is a slight performance gain when the conversion is simpler (basic design).
I left PROGRESSBAR mode on so that more lay users could view the full screen functions without having to change the script.
To use the source code, just put ";" (without quotes) at the beginning of line 7 of the script like this:
;#define PROGRESSBAR 1000
You can compile using Inno Setup [Repack] (https://mega.nz/#F!EJ4gjSyQ!s5auXl8nKFOZmw_ylkO0cw).
Lite: Original Inno Setup + RESTOOL Interface (Selectable)
Full: Original Inno Setup + RESTOOL Interface + Various Additional Software + .cjstyles skins package (Optional Download). (All Items Selectables).
There is a visible bug in 4K monitors with windows magnification of 300% (scale and layout) when specified background or video in 1280x720 displays in full screen (If placing 200% displays correctly).
Thanks!

What is the criteria for custom making the MusicIcon.png? I mean like W & H ratio of each icon part or something so it fits perfectly??
Width and height are specified in "Setup.ini'" file, so you can create any size, just create all parts with the same height and width.
I attached the PSD project of MusicIconAR.png used in CIU.

cesar, is there a way you can use text fonts with a texture added? like say a font using the agarest generations of war logo style texture in it? or is it limited to the windows fonts and rgb/#ff0000 style hashtag color code system?

Only fonts of type .ttf (Types used in text editors).
A logo is usually composed of the original font + Texture layers and other effects.

hey cesar82 can i use precomp/precompX/PMT with CIU? i want to compress with the newest ultraarc but was wondering if i can use the 3 above tools and have them extract properly in CIU v3? thanks.
Currently PMT is supported on the CIU for the RAZOR compressor.
Soon in CIU 3.0.0.0.u9 PMT will also be included for MPZ.
Among all compressors used in CIU, the PMT developer recommended using PMT only with RAZOR and MPZ compressors.
The others are already fast and will not bring better performance using PMT.
Regarding including precomp/precompX, it depends on KaktoR to find this inclusion useful (I understand very little about compression methods).
CIU also supports adding additional compressors to a extenal folder next to "Setup.exe" file.
It is only necessary to include the path in the "Records.ini" file or in the external "Setup.ini" file (If you do not use records.ini), as shown below
[Ressources]
Path={src}\COMPRESSORS
//Path32=
//Path64=
In the "COMPRESSORS" folder next to Setup.exe place the compressors you want to add and also place Arc.ini with the necessary information.
NOTES; The internal Arc.ini file will be replaced by the external Arc.ini from "COMPRESSORS" folder...
Updated.
I removed changelogs from topic because each edit/save take up to 1 minute...
I forgot to change something inside "DiskSpan.bat". Change it on your own :D
-cfgFA.ini
to
-cfgDiskSpan.ini

The previous calculation method in u8 was wrong (25000 MB is not 25 GB).
In CIU u9, this was corrected to the real value.
The value entered in MB is converted to GB (GBValue = MBValue / 1024)
It is not a bug, just now it is working as it should always be.
Use zebNet Byte Calculator (https://www.zebnet.co.uk/freeware/tools-and-utilities/byte-calculator) tool to converter you game size to add in Setup.ini.

DiskSpan's internal request disk does not display the disk number (Only when requesting the .001 file).
You are also using your configuration wrong.
For DiskSpan files (.001, .002, .003, etc.) you have to enter only the first part for extraction (.001).
Use in section only like this:
[ExtractSettings]
ArcFile1=Data1.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk :1;
ArcFile2=Data2.bin.001;DestDir:{app};Type:ARC;Disk :2;

-Kitsune
YES, if the games have different names.
Example: Syberia and Syberia II are different.
Check the Setup.ini file if this key is being used?
[InstallOptions]
ProductCode=
If the same GUID is used in 2 games with different names it will be interpreted as the same game.
Remove this line or place "//" or ";" at the beginning of the line in both "Setup.ini" and recompile.
Using the ProductCode= key is optional for when you need to create 2 installers with the same game name, but want to install both in different locations on the HDD.
Let me know if that was it.
If not, send me the Setup.ini for the 2 games for me to analyze.

To use with CIU it is recommended to use "UltraArc.exe" or "DiskSpan.bat" from the "UltraARC 2900 R7 FULL" folder contained in "_Tools.7z" file of the first post.
But if you use another extension, CIU will work as long as the method used for compression is supported by CIU and is not a DiskSpan R3 file (different from .001, .002, etc.).
It will only be necessary to inform the file correctly in Records.ini file.
You can include compressors external to the CIU using an external folder and an external Arc.ini with all the configurations of the methods that are used.

Did you use the correct oodle version for compression and decompression?
Here is the new UltraARC with updated DiskSpan
[05.07.2020]
- Reworked DiskSpan.bat file
> It is now possible to use it with List files.
It will give you the ability to use different compression methods for a single game
without doing anything else. No calculate, no manually moving. DiskSpan.bat will
do it all for you.
> DiskSpan.bat has now two modes: x64 and x86.
It will now indicate through a color which method is aviable on x64 systems only.
For example you can't use RAZOR or LOLZ on x86 systems because it is x64 only for compression,
therefore you can't use this methods if you're running on x86 system.
> DiskSpan.bat is now able to call individual commands BEFORE or AFTER compression.
This is helpfull if you have to use individual commands for different purposes, just like create
backup folders inside game folder, move files, delete files, rename files and such before or after
compressing.
- Changed HxD Editor to english version
Note that there MAY be still bugs, eventough I tested it really lot. That's why I post it here separately.
There is also a "new" CIUv3 version aviable (3.0.0.0.u9 [2020.06.11]). I will post it in a few days. Totally forgot about this :p
If everything is good with the new DiskSpan, I will reupload a complete whole package to first post.
Thanks!

Did you use the correct oodle version for compression and decompression?
Tools (2020-06-09)\DiskSpan
You have to use the correct oodle version (dll file) for compressing.
Either copy "oo2core_4_win64.dll" from game folder to "UltraArc folder\Resources\PE\OodleRec" or use the oodle4 dll from the same folder (Oodle4 folder) where all the 3 exe files are.
For unpacking, use COMPRESSOR.ini inside CIUv3 archive and enable OodleRec (delete the //) and use "Oodle4".
#Define OodleRec "Oodle4"
PS: The "DiskSpan" folder inside _Tools archive is outdated and is removed with the next upcoming version of _Tools.
I have uploaded a fix for the new diskspan.
- Fixed Autorun.inf creation and Setup.ico copy for disks above 1
- Added AFR to diskspan again (because it is now possible with list files)

CHANGELOG CIU 3.0.0.0.u9
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Added Precomp and PrecompX precompressor, see more information at: https://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103511
- Added new "RazorTools" decompression method "VFXRec" precompressor (method vfxrec).
>> VFXRec (Metro Exodus Precompression Tool), see more information at: https://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103563
- Added AutorunScript for CIU (Optional).
>> AutorunScript is simply a launcher that creates an "Autorun.exe" file that can be placed next to "Setup.exe".
>> If you run "Autorun.exe" the Autorun page will be displayed (If this page exists).
>> If you run "Setup.exe" the autorun page will not be displayed by going directly to the installer page.
>> If the file "Autorun.exe" is not placed next to "Setup.exe", CIU works as before.
>> The file "Autorun.ico" is also optional for "Autorun.exe" and if it does not exist "Icon.ico/Setup.ico" will be used in both executables.
- Added DragMove functionality on all disabled buttons.
>> When you click and hold the mouse click you can move the Autorun/Installer window by clicking on a disabled button as if the button was there.
- Added mouse scroll mode to move LangBox flags;
>> Only when the LangBox arrows are being displayed and LangBox Horizontal or Vertical position.
>> Position the mouse cursor over the LangBox flags and rotate the mouse scroll button to move the flags.
- Added language switching by pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard.
>> Only when the LangBox arrows are being displayed and LangBox Horizontal or Vertical position.
>> For LangBox horizontal use keyboard keys LEFT/RIGHT and for LangBox vertical use keyboard keys UP/DOWN to change installer language.
- Added "STDZRec" precompressor for independent selection in "COMPRESSOR.ini" file.
>> This precompressor has only a 64-bit version see more information at https://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=102599.
>> STDZRec already existed at CIU on "RazorTools" compressors.
- Removed "oo2core_5_win32.dll" and "oo2core_5_win64.dll" files from XTool compressor.
>> XTool still have bugs with Oodle, and we have OodleRec precompressor anyway.
- Updated BASS library from v2.4.14 to v2.4.15
- Updated compressor/decompressor RAR (UnRAR.dll) from v5.80 to v5.90
- Changed "packmp3.exe" and "packjpg.exe" to 32-bit version to make "MPZ" compatible with 32-bit system.
- Changed to "Compressor = x64" compression mode when using "DUAL" mode and 64BitOnly=1.
>> If the key "64BitOnly=1" in the Setup.ini the items defined as "DUAL" will be changed to "x64" to decrease the size of the final "Setup.exe".
- Removed "Pckr.dll" from CIU 3.0.0.0 because the CreateImageMask function was added to "CIULib.dll".
- Removed function "define ISDoneOriginal" because no one uses it and it is no longer needed.
- Removed function "#define RecreateMasks" when compiling "Setup.exe" (bitmap Masks).
>> No longer necessary because it works perfectly creating bitmap masks on runtime.
- Fixed the locking of the "Setup.ini/Registry.iss" files when copied and try to save changes to these files.
>> Previously, a copy was made to a temporary folder before compiling and this temporary file was blocked until it was finalized.
>> When opening the Inno Setup IDE again and trying to compile any CIU project these files would be unlocked and would be deleted.
>> It has now been corrected and it is no longer necessary to make these copies.
- Added support for "PMT - Parallel Multithreaded Encoder/Decoder" for "MPZ" compressor.
>> The "#define PMT" option has been removed, now it is chosen as a type in the RAZOR and MPZ compressors.
>> See "COMPRESSOR.ini" for compatible compressors and how to use them.
- Fixed progress of the SmallInstaller progress bar when not using images for ProgressBar.
- Fixed to display replace the PercentLabel with PercentButton (PercentButton show same text as the label) only when you do not use ProgressBar images and are positioned over the ProgressBar.
>> Thus, by positioning the PercentsLabel outside the ProgressBar, it allows displaying the shadows of the label even without using images for the progress bar.
- Fixed the option to copy external compressors that were not working well.
- Fixed bug when obtaining FreeSpace of drives.
>> Changed detection method from GetSpaceOnDisk to GetSpaceOnDisk64 (Only IS UNICODE).
- Fixed the display of the FreeSpace label to display values with two decimal places if the last decimal digits are not zero.
>> Example: 3300.002 MB >> 3300 MB, 4.361 GB >> 4.36 GB, 4,204 GB >> 4.2 GB, 4.108 GB >> 4.1 GB, 4.007 GB >> 4 GB, etc.
- Added a backup from the previous label to the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page.
>> Clicking on the browse button will create a backup of the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page.
>> If you select another partition, the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page is changed according to the available space obtained.
>> After that, if you click on the "Cancel" or "Close" (X) button, backup of old label will be restored, and if you click OK, this backup will be skipped.

>> AutorunScript is simply a launcher that creates an "Autorun.exe" file that can be placed next to "Setup.exe".
>> If you run "Autorun.exe" the Autorun page will be displayed (If this page exists).
>> If you run "Setup.exe" the autorun page will not be displayed by going directly to the installer page.
>> If the file "Autorun.exe" is not placed next to "Setup.exe", CIU works as before.
>> The file "Autorun.ico" is also optional for "Autorun.exe" and if it does not exist "Icon.ico/Setup.ico" will be used in both executables.
- Added DragMove functionality on all disabled buttons.
>> When you click and hold the mouse click you can move the Autorun/Installer window by clicking on a disabled button as if the button was there.
- Added mouse scroll mode to move LangBox flags;
>> Only when the LangBox arrows are being displayed and LangBox Horizontal or Vertical position.
>> Position the mouse cursor over the LangBox flags and rotate the mouse scroll button to move the flags.
- Added language switching by pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard.
>> Only when the LangBox arrows are being displayed and LangBox Horizontal or Vertical position.
>> For LangBox horizontal use keyboard keys LEFT/RIGHT and for LangBox vertical use keyboard keys UP/DOWN to change installer language.
- Added "STDZRec" precompressor for independent selection in "COMPRESSOR.ini" file.
>> This precompressor has only a 64-bit version see more information at https://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=102599.
>> STDZRec already existed at CIU on "RazorTools" compressors.
- Removed "oo2core_5_win32.dll" and "oo2core_5_win64.dll" files from XTool compressor.
>> XTool still have bugs with Oodle, and we have OodleRec precompressor anyway.
- Updated BASS library from v2.4.14 to v2.4.15
- Updated compressor/decompressor RAR (UnRAR.dll) from v5.80 to v5.90
- Changed "packmp3.exe" and "packjpg.exe" to 32-bit version to make "MPZ" compatible with 32-bit system.
- Changed to "Compressor = x64" compression mode when using "DUAL" mode and 64BitOnly=1.
>> If the key "64BitOnly=1" in the Setup.ini the items defined as "DUAL" will be changed to "x64" to decrease the size of the final "Setup.exe".
- Removed "Pckr.dll" from CIU 3.0.0.0 because the CreateImageMask function was added to "CIULib.dll".
- Removed function "define ISDoneOriginal" because no one uses it and it is no longer needed.
- Removed function "#define RecreateMasks" when compiling "Setup.exe" (bitmap Masks).
>> No longer necessary because it works perfectly creating bitmap masks on runtime.
- Fixed the locking of the "Setup.ini/Registry.iss" files when copied and try to save changes to these files.
>> Previously, a copy was made to a temporary folder before compiling and this temporary file was blocked until it was finalized.
>> When opening the Inno Setup IDE again and trying to compile any CIU project these files would be unlocked and would be deleted.
>> It has now been corrected and it is no longer necessary to make these copies.
- Added support for "PMT - Parallel Multithreaded Encoder/Decoder" for "MPZ" compressor.
>> The "#define PMT" option has been removed, now it is chosen as a type in the RAZOR and MPZ compressors.
>> See "COMPRESSOR.ini" for compatible compressors and how to use them.
- Fixed progress of the SmallInstaller progress bar when not using images for ProgressBar.
- Fixed to display replace the PercentLabel with PercentButton (PercentButton show same text as the label) only when you do not use ProgressBar images and are positioned over the ProgressBar.
>> Thus, by positioning the PercentsLabel outside the ProgressBar, it allows displaying the shadows of the label even without using images for the progress bar.
- Fixed the option to copy external compressors that were not working well.
- Fixed bug when obtaining FreeSpace of drives.
>> Changed detection method from GetSpaceOnDisk to GetSpaceOnDisk64 (Only IS UNICODE).
- Fixed the display of the FreeSpace label to display values with two decimal places if the last decimal digits are not zero.
>> Example: 3300.002 MB >> 3300 MB, 4.361 GB >> 4.36 GB, 4,204 GB >> 4.2 GB, 4.108 GB >> 4.1 GB, 4.007 GB >> 4 GB, etc.
- Added a backup from the previous label to the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page.
>> Clicking on the browse button will create a backup of the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page.
>> If you select another partition, the FreeSpace label on the SelectDir page is changed according to the available space obtained.
>> After that, if you click on the "Cancel" or "Close" (X) button, backup of old label will be restored, and if you click OK, this backup will be skipped.
[18.07.2020]
- Reworked DiskSpan.bat file
> It is now possible to use it with List files.
It will give you the ability to use different compression methods for a single game
without doing anything else. No calculate, no manually moving. DiskSpan.bat will
do it all for you.
> DiskSpan.bat has now two modes: x64 and x86.
It will now indicate through a color which method is aviable on x64 systems only.
For example you can't use RAZOR or LOLZ on x86 systems because it is x64 only for compression,
therefore you can't use this methods if you're running on x86 system.
> DiskSpan.bat is now able to call individual commands BEFORE or AFTER compression.
This is helpfull if you have to use individual commands for different purposes, just like create
backup folders inside game folder, move files, delete files, rename files and such before or after
compressing.
- Changed HxD Editor to english version
- Fixed Autorun.inf creation and Setup.ico copy for disks above 1
- Added AFR to diskspan again (because it is now possible with list files)
Added to first post.

2 * 164 GB = At least 328 GB free space needed for compression
I bet you need more free space. That's why I hate afr with big games.
I don't remember if afr delete the first temp file (82GB original forge input temp) if precompression is finish and copy second temp to new temp. If not, then you have to add +82 GB input to 328 GB temp.

Thanks for translations.
1)
This label is a caption of a button that displays the CIU information page.
ButtonAbout=à propos...
Don't have a way to capitalize the first letter?
Or should the French language be written in lowercase?
2)
Merging=Fusionner le fichier %1 (%3%) to %2 (%4%)...
This word "to" has not been translated. Can I use pour or keep the word "to"?
This label is displayed when joining the parts of split files from UltraAr as in the example below.
The first percentages is the current file and the last refers to the total percentage of the merging of all parts.
Merging=Fusionner le fichier Data1a.bin (87%) to Data1.bin (12%)...
@samadrahman7, thanks.
I found some more untranslated labels in the Farsi language.
SpecialThanksTitle=Special Thanks
CreateDesktopIcon=Create a desktop shortcut
OptimalInstallation=Optimal installation (Faster)
Merging=Merging file %1 (%3%) to %2 (%4%)...
I reviewed all CIU language files.
I found many untranslated labels in most languages.
To avoid posting several posts here, I decided to post the file with the attached languages files.
If you are one of those who collaborated with translation to CIU or want to collaborate in any of the untranslated languages, please download the file and open the text file and look for the semicolon symbol ";" (without quotes).
All labels that need to be translated are marked with ";" at the beginning of the line and has the character =.
After translating each line, remove the ";" from the beginning of the translated lines.
The text must be translated only after the = sign.
lines with "; ***" (Semicolon followed by asterisks) are for information only and do not need to be translated.
The character "&" in the labels referring to the caption of the buttons is just a shortcut key identifier, and is not displayed in the caption of the button.
The letter following the "&" character is the keyboard shortcut key for the button.
After translating you can send me the language file in a post or by PM.
Thank you all for your cooperation!

Your 2 translation of the buttons has become practically the same translation.
It is not possible to translate one of the 2 button captions differently
ButtonAbout=Info...
ButtonInfo=&Info
ButtonAbout = Button to display the about page
ButtonInfo = The caption on the back button is displayed after the Hash check after clicking ButtonLog (ButtonLog is also displayed on the back button).
To better understand these buttons in hash page, watch the video HERE (https://mega.nz/file/gMImBAza#I8P2gIPlkRLVAEbMn7TbyJJAzV_mU2pt62aO2iuZN bI).

The fact is that usually the "About" page is translated in a generic "Information" (-> Informazioni, or just Info for short) in Italian, otherwise you can find the word "Circa..." or "Riguardo..." even though they sound pretty bad and they are less used
In this case I would suggest
ButtonAbout=Circa...
or
ButtonAbout=Riguardo...
Actually I didn't get where the about caption is located in the video you shown, but if they don't appear in the same page I don't think it's a problem
If you can fit it in the caption you could even translate it in "Informazioni sul programma" as it stands for Information about the program
Nevertheless it is up to you

For me here is working ok.
You are displaying the path correctly in your image.
"Hunter2\Content" is the game's folders(I think).
From the video I realized that you didn't use Records.ini, your setup.ini in the [ExtractSettings] section may be wrong.
If you want, send me your setup.ini.
Or wait for comments from other users if the problem happens to others.
The installation folder path is displayed only within the {app} folder.
I made some minimal changes just to remove the "/" if it is not a game collection installation.
New hotfix available in some of the next posts.
The fact is that usually the "About" page is translated in a generic "Information" (-> Informazioni, or just Info for short) in Italian, otherwise you can find the word "Circa..." or "Riguardo..." even though they sound pretty bad and they are less used
In this case I would suggest
ButtonAbout=Circa...
or
ButtonAbout=Riguardo...
I'll use "Circa" if it looks good.
Actually I didn't get where the about caption is located in the video you shown, but if they don't appear in the same page I don't think it's a problem
If you can fit it in the caption you could even translate it in "Informazioni sul programma" as it stands for Information about the program
Nevertheless it is up to you
If the user includes the about button and hashes, both will be displayed at the same time on the same page.

fixed by add Records.ini :| why?
@houcine80
Size calculation has changed
17000mb / 1024mb = 16.6gb
I don't know why Cesar did this :D
Because the SIZE value is specified in MB.
1 GB = 1024 MB (not 1000 MB).
It was wrong before...
How would you correctly write the size for a game that is 1015 MB?
In the next version 3.0.0.1 you will be able to write "17 GB"
For 1015 MB I would simply write 1015 or would round up to 1100 :D
For 1015 MB I would simply write 1015 or would round up to 1100 :D
Before 1015 it was 1040 MB and not 1015 MB.
1100 before was 1.1 GB = 1127 MB.
It is a matter of getting used to using it.
When you move to version 3.0.0.1 you can use units, this will make it easier.
@samadrahman74, try now the atached hotfix 5
- Fixed error on CREATORS mode.
- Fixed (I think) extraction using [ExtractSetings] section of the "Setup.ini" file (without Records.ini file).
- Added "..." before name of file in CurrentFileName label.

I am sharing CIU v3.0.0.1.b6:eek: here so that more users can test and report the bugs found.
I would like to ask the members of the forum to try to use the version attached in their conversions so that it is possible to use this version and no longer create updates for 3.0.0.0.
There is a delay when starting up so I don't need an opinion from you who use CIU. This delay is due to the use of the video player library which is also used to perform audio playback.
Using BASS.dll did not allow online audio playback, so there is the option of leaving the video library for video only, but the audio will only be able to play .mp3 files from the disc and will also lose some other current functionality. Do I return the BASS library to the CIU allowing only .mp3 audio files but decreasing the CIU initialization time?
NOTES:
- The CIU version 3.0.0.1 has changes in relation to 3.0.0.0 so I recommend to observe the new keys and sections in the file "_Setup.ini" file.
- Compile the Shadow Of Tomb Raider theme installer in progressbar mode and run to view some of the changes, or read in the changelog.
@Mods, if possible, attach the LINK file to the post (I was unable to upload here).
Done and thanks
@Cesar
Should I post the u9 update (latest HF5?) with complete package + new ultraarc version?

You know, if you want you can post.
I have no changes after [2020.07.01] HF5.
Or if you want, simply post the HF5 in the first post with the other files.

why is my avast detecting PrecompX.exe and PngtoBmp.exe as Virus

why is my avast detecting PrecompX.exe and PngtoBmp.exe as Virus
its's because PrecompX is compressed with UPX. but it's a false positive. (it doesn't contain any viruses.).
@mausschieber
why is my avast detecting PrecompX.exe and PngtoBmp.exe as Virus
I attached the files PrecompX, and PngToBmp without UPX compression for you to test replacing the previous executable that was captured by the antivirus.
It is also compatible with CIU 3.0.0.0.u9, but it is necessary to change the folder name "Compressors" to "Decompressors" in the contents of the attachment file.
@BLACKFIRE69.
You could share modifyed "Precomp 0.48" without compressing with UPX. Removing the compression of these compatible precomp.exe executables they stop working.
Your project's executables (also the changed Precomp 0.48 version) don't support compiling with older versions of delphi (like DELPHI 2010), this would make executables smaller, without the need to use UPX.
Although when compiling setup.exe the compression of Inno Setup will make setup.exe close to the size when used with UPX exe, the extraction time of the executable when starting the installation process will increase.
Only the 32-bit + 64-bit of Precomp.exe and PrecompX.exe executables add up to 13.8 MB (very large size).

PrecompX
ithink CIUv3 uses the initail version of PrecompX (v.1.0).
PrecompX v1.0 (x86): 449 kb (with UPX))
PrecompX v1.0 (x86): 1.26 mb (without UPX)
but the story of version 2.0.0.1 is different. i was able to manage it.. :D
PrecompX v2.0.0.1 (x86): 200 kb (with UPX))
PrecompX v2.0.0.1 (x86): 862 kb (without UPX)
but anyway, i'll upload the PrecompX of version v2.0.0.1 without UPX.
Modified version of Precomp 0.4.8
the modified version of "Precomp0.48" is not detected as a virus. (i think so :rolleyes:). so you can use the compressed (precomp048 modified) file.
i've changed it using "Visual Studio 2019". then the result was terrible. :mad:
Precomp 0.4.8 (x86): 5.07 mb (modified) (without UPX)
but UPX gave it a size of 706 kb.
if anyone knows of a tool instead of UPX, please share it with me. ;)

if anyone knows of a tool instead of UPX, please share it with me. ;)
You can do tests with attached compressor file.
Depending on the exe file it may or may not be accused as a virus.
I did some tests and uPACK looks good size, but for some DLLs it was captured as false positive by the antivirus.
I will update precompX on CIU.
Thanks!

@Cesar82,
i rewrote PrecompX v2.0.0.1 with Delphi 2010. :D
this time i got the final size with UPX as "94 kb". that's great. :eek:
but unfortunately Delphi 2010 doesn't support "64-bit".

I did some research and found out that from Delphi XE2 (https://blog.devart.com/development-with-embarcadero-rad-studio-xe2.html) support for 64-bit executables was implemented.
I tested it here and it really is the first one that has the option of 64 bits in XE2.

I got a problem using MP4 file. I don't know if it was on previous versions as I have never used a video file but when video is playing, the 'Video : Off' button doesn't work and video keeps repeating....
I got a problem using MP4 file. I don't know if it was on previous versions as I have never used a video file but when video is playing, the 'Video : Off' button doesn't work and video keeps repeating....
Videos have worked in CIU since version 1.0.0.0 of CIU, but there was a time when updates to video codecs caused the libraries responsible for playing video to stop working.
Now thanks to altef_4 that remade his entire library, it will be possible to play videos again on CIU.
The CIU theme installer the video seems to be working ok here.
Watch the video HERE (https://mega.nz/file/cQhCGA6B#WMuP_Dz1sHqnUYvktAILWSbkJTBWaDjkwDvBJ-mL_h8) for more details.
I have not tested playing files during game installation.
As for the loop, check the key Loop= of the [VideoOrFlashBG] section in setup.ini is not set to "1".
If it's another project you can send it to me and I'll check it for you (if you want).

Yeah, thanks. Now I noticed the mistake I made..
Thinking about some situations in which the labels are very small and some fonts are unreadable in certain cases.
Like what happens when converting Horizon Zero Dawn - Complete Edition (https://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=103745) (by Prettyboy099).
I decided to make it possible to use independent font configurations (optional) for the labels on the SystemRequiriments page.
With these new settings it is possible to configure an alternative font file (optional) or font/shadow settings for the highlighted part.
https://i.imgur.com/jmaC7Gb.png
After testing the conversion of @Prettyboy099 I found a bug when switching to the installer finish page.
Displays an error when not add the Close button in the installer and going to the finish page.
To fix this, do the following... Open the CIU 3.0.0.1.b6 script and search for:
CstmBtn.ClickAction := @NextBtnClick;
Insert the line highlighted in red.
CstmBtn[BtnI(NextBtn)].ClickAction := @NextBtnClick;
[B]if BtnI(CloseBtn) >= 0 then
CstmBtn[BtnI(CloseBtn)].ClickAction := @NextBtnClick;
If other errors arise I share an HF.
Thanks @Prettyboy099 for using CIU 3.0.0.1.b6, thanks to him this bug will no longer be present in next version.

Thanks, I tested and the problem is fixed...
thanks to her this bug will no longer be present in next version.
I am not 'her' though??..:mad::mad:
@Prettyboy099, sorry, I didn't even notice.
To CIU translators:
The next versions of CIU will have 4 more label (caption) in the miniature buttons in case you want to use as normal buttons.
These labels below are like the name for buttons Minimize, Maximize, Restore, Close in Windows windows.
So ask users who have collaborated with translations before, to translate these labels into the same languages as before.
I will send the request by PM to the users who translated the previous labels in the last few months.
If possible send me the translation by PM so that I don't get so many posts here.
ButtonMinimize=Minimize
ButtonMaximize=Maximize
ButtonRestore=Restore
ButtonClose=Close
The Maximize (Installer) and Restore (SmallInstaller) button are used to switch between Installer/SmallInstaller and vice versa.
Minimize and Close are the buttons present (or not) on the Autorun, Installer or SmallInstaller pages.
The label will be included in buttons of this type:

Updated some files in the "UltraARC 2900 R8" folder (DiskSpan Files).
This version has "CLS-DiskSpan.dll R2" compatible with CIU 3.0.0.0.u9.
To use this updated files with CIU 3.0.0.1.b6 simply download the attached file 2 (CLS-DiskSpan.dll R3) and replace it in the "UltraARC 2900 R8" folder.
Changes:
- Fixed errors in some compression methods.
- Added BD100 size option to media selection.
- Added a new ".bat" file to create the ".7z" file divided into parts by the maximum attachment size supported on the forum.

how do i set Steam and GOG for both games in 3.0.0.1

hey cesar i am having an issue with CIU 3.0.0.1.b6. even when i delete the videos and wallpapers and add my own then recompile it nothing in the install screen changes. it still shows a gray screen then plays the 'world war z' video trailer even when i dont have any videos in the background folder. how do i re-enable the still image slide show again and disable the video? please help, its really frustrating me..
-Kitsune
how do i set Steam and GOG for both games in 3.0.0.1
in 3.0.0.0.u9 it was set in rekords.ini
In version 3.0.0.1.b6 it changed a little (For the better).
Now the key used to determine the type of installation to be performed on (If the installer is a double) is determined by the key:
[InstallerSettings]
InstallerType=
Supported values are:
NORMAL, STEAM, GOG, UWP
Only one value can be entered.
STEAM and NORMAL are the same functionality.
If the value is empty it is considered as STAM/NORMAL
The key can be inserted in Records.ini, or in external Setup.ini, or internal Setup.ini and will be verified in that order.
If there is no key in Records.ini it will be checked in external Setup.ini and if it does not exist, it will be checked in the internal Setup.ini file.
Example to config internal "Setup.ini" file:
To attach the Exe from the executable section to an installation type in the [Executable#] section use the same keywords as above na key Type=.
Also add the key Type= in the [Play#Button] sections;
To attach a play button to the executable use the ExecutableID= key, like This:
[Executable1]
Type=GOG
Exe=game.exe
ExePath=
[Executable2]
Type=STEAM
Exe=game.exe
ExePath=bin64
[Executable3]
Type=STEAM
Exe64=game.exe
ExePath64=bin32
;; play atached to gog executable 32 bits
[Play1Button]
Type=GOG
ExecutableID=1
;; play atached to steam executable 32 bits
[Play2Button]
Type=STEAM
ExecutableID=3
If you do not include ExecutableID= the value of the section ass will be used [Play1Button] = value 1
For more details see the file "_Setup.ini" in the Help folder.

another question what is //AddDXFilter=0
must i be enable or leave it blank
another question what is //AddDXFilter=0
must i be enable or leave it blank
This option if using value "1" includes the LAV and DirectVobSub filters to Setup.exe.
Adding these filters in Setup.exe allows IsMediaLib.dll to play audio or video even without having the K-Lite Codec Pack installed on the system.
When using only .mp3 files if there are no codecs on the system and it fails to play, then it will be played by BASS.dll, but bass.dll does not support playing audio online.
These filters are 22 MB which after compressing are approximately 8 MB (Setup.exe is 8 MB larger with the filters).
The different .mp3 play feature for smallinstaller still doesn't work with BASS.dll so it will only play if you have codecs installed, or if you activate the key.
If you use video or audio online (Youtube for example) in your installer it is recommended to use a value of "1" in the AddDXFilter key.
Otherwise you can use a value of "0" or delete key to reduce the size of Setup.exe in 8 MB.
@mausschieber
The AllowYouTube= key has the ability to include or not include the library that allows you to obtain the direct link to the audio or video from youtube.
If your conversion is not going to play video or audio from youtube you can use value 0 or delete this key.
To play videos from direct links (such as STEAM videos link) it is not necessary to activate the key AllowYouTube=1,
just include the filters if you want the reproduction to not fail due to lack of codecs in the user's system.

;Group=0
next Question about RedistSettings in beta 6
what are these settings
[Launch1]
;Exclusive=0
;Level=0
;Group=0
Exclusive = If use value "1", add RadioButton (not CheckBox), more need 2 or more items in same Group to work with radiobuton (When you check one, uncheck the others in the same group).
Level = Shift of items to the right.
Group = They are created automatically at each Level =, only in some cases you will need to use this key (When you have other larger Levels within the group).
P.S. Groups are incremented by changing to a higher or lower Level = by grouping the RadioButtons so that when selecting one deselect the others in the same group.

Don't multi-post; instead, use the Edit button to add details to your post.

You are referring to CIU, right?
Which version of CIU are you using?
Is this window equivalent to the image below not being displayed?
If so, are you choosing the "Customize" button option in the installer?
Because if you click directly on the "Install" button you will install it in the default directory.
https://i.imgur.com/b1pCN6Y.png
Here CIU displays the window correctly in all conversions I downloaded, and there have been no other reports of this problem.
If CIU is present and this is not the solution to the problem, you can send me the link to download your project by PM which I will analyze for you.
